Shoppes at University Place Playground

Look at that wind action with Katy's pigtails!

Elizabeth and Katy having fun exploring a new playground.

Today, we finally met up with an old friend of Ted's from NJ, who now lives in Charlotte. We took advantage of this semi-warm weather in the middle of December and met up with Lauren and three-year old Joey Domm at the playground at the Shoppes at University Place. Lauren has been kind enough to keep inviting me to various playgroups, activities and parties but our schedules never seemed to match up until today.

Now, I'm pretty familiar with this shopping plaza but I had no idea about this hidden gem of a playground. The equipment was all wooden and fort-like. Katy had a blast crawling in and out of the structures. Next time we go, we'll be sure to bring some stale bread for the many geese, birds and swans that float by in the lake next to the playground.

By the time we parted ways, Katy was tuckered out from her morning's adventure. We had fun!

Awh, right across from where we used to live! This was where I did my walking--the playground really is awesome! When Katy's big enough for the paddle boats, there is a secret "scene" set up under the bridge and Billy's Boardwalk. We're ignoring our moving boxes as we try to get through work, Christmas, and a family trip coming up...but I'm glad I finally got to catch up with your blog! Thank you for the Christmas card! ~Bethany

Sorry--it wouldn't take my LiveJournal, and wouldn't let me publish unless I made a blog. :\
