Good weather and Good friends

FINALLY...it is cooling off. This week we had record heat over 90 degrees! Crazy so finally on Thursday and Friday, we saw some relief. I took that opportunity and we went to the park. Harrison loves to "wing" and always wants to go faster. Somehow, this time we got in the swing sideways, which added even more fun!
I just love that pushing him on the swing can make him so happy!
Then I brought his bike to get some good riding time, but he just wanted to walk and see everything. Here he is playing chicken with the squirrel. All you can see is the tail at this point. The squirrel was burying something when we came so he didn't just want to leave. Harrison waited about 5 minutes and they just kept circling until he lost interest and decided the squirrel did not want to play with him.
Then we saw this lovely sign. They are actually quite common in the ponds down here (the signs are but I have yet to see an alligator!). You would think that would keep us away...
But where there is a sign there must be a crocodile (he can't read and the sign looks like a crocodile!). We walked almost the whole length of the pond looking for one. No luck! Harrison kept going "snap, snap, snap" trying to get them to come. He knew to stay on the sidewalk luckily! It was a nice walk, but he was pretty bummed he didn't find any crocodiles!
Then on Friday afternoon, we got to go to the park with some good friends of ours who just moved from Houston. Harrison loves "Rique"! He just follows him around and wants to be a big boy just like him! And I love "Rique's" mom so we got to sit, chat and enjoy the weather while the boys played at the park!

Time to go. I told Harrison he could hold my hand or "Rique's" through the parking lot and guess who he wanted!? There is nothing in the world like good friends!
