Today and yesteryear


Longingly watching the swan boats come in


Hazel’s turn! Flanked by her best buds Brita and Carolyn!


Pretty sure this was the same favorite duckling from last year


Unlike the first time we installed this seat, we now have a big helper


Hazel approval achieved

Huge fruit


Sniffing the first watermelon of the season


Zoned out on watermelon, an old favorite


In an underground “tent” with construction up top


Surveying the damage after earthquake Hazel came through


Later: putting on a jumping show (The grownups were responsible for the announcements, e.g. Ladies and gentlemen, cats and dogs, please welcome the one, the only….Hazel!)

New tricks


Scooting on a bike path


And straight through the playground gate


Hazel learned to hang from the bar above the slide today


And perfected her slide-climbing skills

Pelts and bones


Hazel loved the pelts table at the farm


And also the owl wing, egg and skull table


Excited for snack


Spontaneous dinner picnic

Double playgrounds


I talked Hazel into touching the monkey bars but she didn’t want to hang


A parent at the park was blowing bubbles for all the kids to chase


Eighty five thousandth time down this slide in the afternoon

Playing in Cambridge


Entering the playground through this amazing kid-sized gate


On the bow of a ship and the head of a dragon


Ahoy, matey! Who is that assistant tillerman?


Travis! (Or as Hazel exclaimed “my growmup friend”)


We miss you again already TE!

Crane spotting


We met Supey for lunch today


And spotted…


A close-range crane in action!


I haven’t mentioned recently how much Hazel loves Lincoln. Some things never change 🙂
