Our Neighborhood Park.....

We FINALLY have our own neighborhood park and here are some pics of it. We used to have to cross Ashlan (a main street by our home) to get to the nearest park. Now we just have to walk around the corner from our house. It only took 6 years to get our own park. We've always had an empty grass area and we figured that it would someday be a park. We were right. It's the best thing in the world, if you have kids, to have a nearby park. It gives us an opportunity to take a walk and let the kids burn off some energy before bedtime. Garrett thinks it's the greatest thing in the world.

The cool thing about this park is the "bark". It's not the usual wood bark, it's made from recycled tires and it's really rubbery and soft. It feels like your bouncing when you walk on it. It's pretty cool. Garrett loves running around and he can't wait until Jake can run with him.
