Parks!

We received our spring 2016 Tustin catalogue a few weeks ago.  It has a list of city classes and special events and little city news.  On the back was this map:
It had all the parks mapped out with addresses.
Eden and I are going to try to see as many as we can and find out favorites.  I can be such a creature of habit and we had the best time discovering new places!
First up: 
Victory Park
It's on the site near the old Marine Corps Air Station, so there was a space/plane theme throughout the park.
 She wanted me to go down a big slide right after her and I had to laugh because I felt like a kid again because it was so high and went so fast!
 There were all sorts of stations around that practiced making different sounds.
Very fun, but it is possible that I can still hear the pitch of this xylophone as I write this...❤︎
  Next up:
Heritage Park:
It was tucked back under these beautiful trees and had a pirate theme. 
 There was even buried treasure... 
but we couldn't open it because the pirates must have had the only key! ❤︎
The flowers were is full bloom everywhere:
She wanted to stop and smell all the flowers!
This was the park that we decided to have our lunch.  It was so peaceful!
We were going to head home, but Eden remembered a park that was close that she had gone to with her grandparents! 
(Thank you Eric and Diane! It was AMAZING!)
So the last for the day was Pioneer Road Park:
She new exactly what she wanted to show me and exactly where she wanted to play and finish her lunch:



 The sky was beautiful and it felt like EVERYTHING was in bloom.  Spring is here!
Eden and I had the best time together!  She kept saying, "I love these girl days , mama!"  To be honest, we are together all the time that I think it took doing something out of our normal routine to realize how special it is that we get to be together so much!  We can't wait to check out many more parks and to find more favorites!
Here is to many more "girl days"...❤︎
