Day 161 | Packing, Cleaning, and Playground
Today we cleaned, packed, and went on our last visit to the playground.
Part of our cleaning was going through piles of paintings, drawings, and other creations that we made while we were here. Each piece had a memory to go with it. I’m so sentimental and it was probably harder for me than for the girls to get rid of them.
We spent a while taking pictures of each piece then threw most of them away. I have to remember that it’s not the stuff that I want to hold onto, it’s mostly the memory that goes with it. So taking a picture is enough. I may forget about it, or I may run across it someday and be reminded of the special times we had.
After packing we played on the playground and walked through the park one last time. I’m thankful it finally opened back up so we could enjoy it a few more times.
This picture makes me laugh! They’re taking a little break from packing, just doing their thing.
She’s enjoying herself more this time:)
She’s climbing up the pole, not sliding down! I’m impressed that she and Anna can both do that!
I love it when they are happy together:)
They didn’t want to take this picture, but they’ll be glad we did someday:)
The tulips are gone. Now roses are beginning to bloom!
Walking through the park!
Caught in the rain again!
Everything is so green! There will be roses in the middle if those bushes soon!
Not a great picture, but I love the variety of trees at this park.
A pretty building we walk by often.
I love these window flower boxes!
More flower boxes.
Walking home.
I walked by these shutters and door many times on the way to the grocery store and thought they were so pretty! I finally took a picture!
We’re closing a door to this part of our trip and can’t wait to see what’s on the other side!
