We went to the Springs Preserve yesterday and met up with my friend Rebecca and her three kids plus her oldest son's friend. So altogether we had 6 boys and one girl. Some acting up was to be expected but Javari was just out of control when we left. We were walking around for over 4 hours and still he didn't want to leave and actually tried to run back in there - twice! I was so mad. Thankfully he went to sleep when we came home and slept for two hours and woke up in a good mood.
Anyway, before all that we had a great time although it was hot (about 100 degrees F or 38 degrees C) and crowded. We have been to the preserve before but only checked out the gardens and the playground as that part is free. Yesterday the museum buildings were free as well and they were even more fun than I expected. There were so many things to do for all ages, even a baby play area for Dequan. The older kids built with LEGO, played in tunnels similar to the ones at McDonald's, went inside a train, saw a flash flood and spiders, played at a water table and a sand table, dumped balls in a slide thingy, and so much more. I had fun playing some kind of water preserving game. And still we didn't see everything. We missed the animals so we have to go back and see that when it's less crowded. Hopefully we can get a membership and go every month. Click here to see the website.
