I've been trying to keep our family busy each day because my kids won't stop fighting when we are home, I'm trying to soak up all the last bits of our summer freedom. I keep going back and forth on whether I am ready for school to start again.
We called some friend (the Petersons), packed a picnic lunch, and headed to the Dunwoody Nature Center. We had never been here, and it was awesome.
The playground was so much fun and had some toys we have never seen before. The boys loved this swing.
The had an Eno garden for the older kids and they thought it was...BOSS (actually nobody said that, but I'm sure they were thinking it was awesome or whatever weird thing kids now say to saw awesome).
They said there was a treehouse...but it was somewhat of a disappointment. After we saw it, McKay was sure there was a different one that was better somewhere else...there wasn't.
The toys were so great! I've never seen anything like them.
The kids also looked for salamanders and crawfish in the stream, without any luck.
But I think they liked looking. They also tried to dam up the river.
This place was breathtakingly beautiful. I have loved discovering all of the fun things by us.
After the Nature Center, we headed to find a shaved ice that we found on Yelp. Kendall (the mom), has introduced me to Yelp and we have had some yummy food finding places on there. The funny thing is that they have always been somewhat scary places, that turned out really great. This place took us forever to find and then was a card table and shaved ice machine. The owner was so nice adn let the kids play all the video games for free.
To be honest, I would rather have the funny memorable experience than the boring old normal one any day.
Lincoln got sour flavors and then sprayed extra sour on his shaved ice...I think it was a bit much.
It was hard to pull them out of here!
Again, I am excited and dreading the end of summer! I love these sweet boys of mine and love finding adventures with them.
