A new park

Minnesota is big on their parks.  They are *everywhere*.  There even a few international landscape architecture firms based from here that develop playgrounds.  Well, we had a little play date with some friends from church to visit a new park up in Maple Grove.  Maple Grove is still in its growing stages and so GPS, google maps, mapquest and everything else is of no help.  So, I got lost.  It took me nearly an hour to get there (Should have taken maybe 25 minutes). But we got there, and enjoyed this massive place.

Samantha was gone the moment we got there.  (Actually, she disappeared before I even got Clara out of the car… that earned her a timeout, but otherwise she was off having fun on the big slides and climbing)  Clara also enjoyed stealing away our friend’s umbrella stroller.  I may have to get one of those…
