Playing at Riverside Park

Every year, the Riordan boys leave on a 5 day campout. One rule is that no child can come who is not capable of taking care of him or herself, which means that the sister-in-laws are left home with a whole den full of children under the age of 12. Despite the obvious challenges this poses, I have come to look forward to this time each year to bond with my Riordan sisters and reunite with my kids. Today Laurel, Andrea and I (along with 5 rambunctious little ones) took a brave trip to Riverside Park to feed the ducks and play on the playground. Benjamin, Ashton and Samuel peaking out the "tractor" window.
Isaac playing in the "tractor" scoop.
Isaac discovered this toy for the first time. He is finally tall enough to jump and reach the ring, but often lacks the momentum to get to the other side. Although he usually got stuck 1/2 way, he loved it!
Ashton peeking around a railroad tie.


Ashton was much more brave about swinging from the bar above the slide than actually going down the slide.
