Comprehensive Park

We went to Comprehensive Park this weekend (see other trips HERE and HERE). It's a big park with a lot to do. Here we are feeding the fish. These carp were hungry! Matthew tried to eat one of the fish pellets, but we stopped him in time. Ew!

Anna had fun feeding the fish too.

Those fish can be kind of creepy!

They look like they might eat Matthew's hand.

We played on the big bungee tree. It's not made of bungee cords, that's just what I started calling it for some reason. The bigger kids were climbing all the way to the top, but we were happy staying pretty low.

We played on this old wooden play structure. I liked it 'cause it reminded me of a big wooden play structure they had at a park near my house growing up (Acacia Park). Good memories!  Matthew is going down the big slide and I'm cleaning sand out of Anna's shoes.  Remind me not to dress her in Crocs when we go to a sandy park anymore.  Such a pain!

I wanted to try the zip line. Don't worry, I didn't push any little kids out of the way to try it.

I kind of had to lift my legs up high at the end, but I made it.

Then Scott tried it too.

His legs are a little longer than mine, but he was still able to zip on down.

After we did it, Matthew wanted to try. I lifted him up on there and Scott held on to the line and ran along with him, so he wouldn't fall. I didn't get a picture in time. He had this to say about his experience, "I was scared at first but I didn't fall off and then I liked it." :)

Here he is after his wild ride. So tough. We also played on another bigger and better play structure than the wooden one, but I was too busy chasing kids around to get any pictures. I did get a new "classic Anna" story out of it though:
Anna was climbing down a big steep ladder and she slipped and fell. I was standing right there and because I have super fast superhero/supermom reflexes, I caught her. :) Then I put her on the ground. She was so ticked off that I put her on the ground and didn't let her come down the ladder all the way by herself, that she huffily climbed back up the ladder, so she could come down on her own ("I DO IT MYSELF!!") So Anna.
