Common Ground Park

Last Saturday, Jaemyn had an 11 year old Scout Activity at the Stake Center in Lakeland.  I remembered Sis Murray telling me about a park in Lakeland so I thought it would be fun to take the other kids and let them play while he was at his activity. 
 This was a really unique park with various level of play activity, like Easy, Intermediate, and Challenging.
 There was Rock Climbing, Sliding/Rolling down hills,
A Butterfly sanctuary with several statues like this one. 
They also had these statues of Kids all around the park, the park is called Common Ground and I think that   they are trying to promote that there is something here for everyone, it doesn't matter who you are. 

 This is the "Autism" butterfly

 Her Rolling didn't work as well as she hoped, lol



 Trying her skills at skateboarding, sorta
 spinning around and around and around.

 Gettin' his music on.
 She wanted to pose like this, ha ha
 The Butterfly area, there was a really BIG BRIGHT Yellow Butterfly that was flying around and I tried to get a picture of it, but it was too fast.  It was soooo pretty.

 The grounds in the play area are soft and some of it is artificial grass.




 A Huge swing, I almost wanted to lay in it, lol



 He's not to sure about this...

doing a little better.... 
 wait...mom....pick me up!!!!


 He handled this a bit better....
But really I think he was just hungry... 

yep, definitely hungry. 



 My sweet boy.
Oreo cookies on the way home. 


The park was really cool and I hope it is not too hot to go in June when my mom comes, ok who am I kidding, it probably will be.
