One day last weekend we had about an hour and a half before we needed to start dinner. It was such a beautiful day we decided we would run down to Falls Park in downtown Greenville and walk around for a little while. We loaded the girls and the wagon up, told the girls where we were going, and we were off. Emily talked the whole way there about sliding down the slide. We tried to explain to her that this park didn't have a slide and that we were just going to enjoy walking around, being outside and being together. She still wanted the slide. Ha!
Here are the girls in their wagon!
They loved their wagon ride but several times while we were there Emily would look around and ask "When are we going to go to the park?" We would explain that we are at the park...Falls Park....but it never seemed to sink in...she was still looking for a slide.:)
As we were loading up the car and driving home Emily asked over and over if we could go to "another park....please, Mommy, can we go to another park." Poor girl! She really wasn't that impressed with their lack of playground equipment. Thankfully, we learned our lesson. From now, to our family, "Falls Park" is just "The Falls." We'll be dropping the "park" in order to keep the peace with our slide-loving 3 year old!:)
