Fox Run Park

Our wonderful friend, Tamra Farah, told us about this delightful park not too far from our house. Once again I am in awe of the beautiful place we now call home. We were enjoying a perfect spring day today, so once school work was completed, the kids and I packed up the car and headed to the park. This was actually our second visit, and I am sure we will venture here often. Trinity and Taite love the little creek. They both enjoy getting their hands wet, but Taite enjoys the thrill of jumping over the water from bank to bank. Trinity isn't quite as brave, she's content to pick flowers along the bank and sit pretty near by.

Taite, being all boy, has adventures to tend to and rocks and trees to conquer. No, that's not the sun in his eyes, that's his tough face. Intimidating, I know, but rest assure, he fights for good not for evil.

Jaden of course is simply happy. No reason has to link up to why he is happy, he's just Jaden and therefore he is happy. It also doesn't hurt that he is stinkin' cute.

In addition to the creek, the park includes walking trails where you are met by friendly chipmunks and a plethora of pinecones that for Taite double nicely as hand grenades, two playgrounds, and a couple pretty ponds.

The ponds are filled with some sort of orange fish, making their visibilty in the water attainable even for a three year old. So this trip we came prepared with bread to feed the not so hungry fish.


The kids didn't seem to mind that the fish weren't eatting that much. They still tossed in about four slices of bread and helped themselves to a slice each. Trinity said she wanted to test the bread and make sure it was good enough for the fish to eat. That's my daughter, always willing to help out, especially when food is involved.
