Link Playdate

While Dax was at school, Link and I met his friend Owen, and his Mommy Jackie, for a playdate. We went to the playgound in his neighborhood, on Yaupon, near Dax's school. It is a nice, shaded playground with a big sandbox and lots of dump truck toys. Link enjoyed the swing and a bouncy frog. We had a picnic lunch and watched a roadrunner run all over the park. It was fearless. And really cool to be that close to one. Unfortunately, it moved too quick to get a picture of it. :(

We also met the snooty "park Nazi" who wanted to make sure we lived in the neighborhood. After preaching about HOA dues paying for the playground, she finally conceeded that "it's OK to have friends, but it really is for the NEIGHBORHOOD children." Way to make me want to move in to your neighborhood, lady. Sheesh.

But we didn't let her ruin our day. The weather was perfect and it was nice to spend the time with Link. Hopefully, he and Owen will continue to be friends as they get older.
