Visiting Oma & Opa

We went to visit Oma and Opa at the Conference Grounds! Addie loves to go to Oma's house for tea during the week, so we thought we would make the trip to visit them at the cottage.

First we brought Addie to the park. I actually got her IN a swing! She wanted immediately out though, you can see her hear grabbing Oma's finger for dear life.

Then we tried the bouncy car (a car on a giant spring) surely she wouldn't be afraid of that!
Wrong!

They have a toddler play set, so we headed to that... she liked the tubey thing

Maybe a slide?

Ready to go!

Nope! Didn't do it!

So next we tried the merry-go-round, she seemed like she might like it.

A winner!

She loved it!

Then she wanted to go on the big play set...

And the BIG slide!!!!!! This is right before she twisted to the side and started crying :(

Back on the fort. She really wanted to climb the rock wall, but she was too little, so Joel too the route down while holding her.

That wasn't good enough though.

It was HORRIBLE!

We finally pried her off of the rock wall, and walked to the beach. That was a no go, it was just too hot and buggy, so we went back.

Addie saw some sidewalk chalk, and HAD to partake!

Then we walked back with the rest of the kids to eat. Here she is getting hit by the sprinkler, she thought it was pretty funny.

We saw a german shepherd puppy on the way back... of course, Joel had to stop to have Addie pet it. She loved it.

Bye-Bye

Ha! That is funny Heather!!!! Definately a small world! I think, generally, if it is a deWit with 1 t at the end, I am related... all the others seem to have 2.
