A Picnic

A couple weeks ago we headed out to a local park to have a picnic lunch with some friends.

It was mildly chilly, but still a wonderful day to be in the great outdoors.

Papillon busted out her spring sun-protection hat. (Side note: the importance of the use of sunscreen, is without fail, the ONLY thing or pediatrician reminds us of at our appointments...on this occasion, we didn't use sunscreen, but at least we brought a hat!).

Papillon kept giving our friend evil glares; in this photo she has redirected said glares at her toy pelican.

Fun friend!

After our picnic lunch, we walked around part of the park where there was this pretty sweet looking old house.

There was also a miniature train track, and apparently the park offers free train rides for kids once a month. Sadly we were there on the wrong day, but we will definitely have to go back. Despite not getting to ride the train, our one friend very much enjoyed exploring the tracks...he is a civil engineer and informed us that the replica was actually remarkably similar to real train tracks!

There was also a little swing set, and so Papillon got to lounge in a swing for a little big.
