Reiman Gardens - July 13th
Today, we are hitting up Reiman Gardens with Lucas and Nicholas. We've been hanging out with them a lot this summer, and really wanted to show them where we love to run and play!
We loved showing them the Lego sculptures!
Spent quite a bit of time playing on this. Can you find us all?
Just hanging around.....
Stomp Chimes
Group photo with the butterfly.
Of course, we had to play in the water!
We might have played in the water for quite a while....
More group shots!
World's Largest Cement Gnome!
The last Lego sculpture is the peacock inside.
Mom had to peel us away from the Lego table!
But we didn't complain for long when we realized that she was taking us to Hickory Park!

Effigy Mounds - Hanging Rock Trail (7miles!!!!)
We set out at Effigy Mounds to just hike a little, but these three decided that we should walk all the way out to Hanging Rock (3.5 miles away). Daddy and Emery took a shorter path.
They stopped to check out flowers.
They stayed together the whole time.
They stopped to check out crawling bugs...
Sometimes it was just time to stop and enjoy the shade...(it was REALLY hot out there)
and also to enjoy the scenery.
This tree has some obvious insect damage.
The sign and proof that we made it!
The view was fantastic!
Parker found a little toad.
Emery and Olivia are ready for lunch,
After such a long walk, it was time to head back to Papa and GG's house and play some games in the air conditioning.
