Music at the Library

Our local library has a summer music program, a different band comes and performs on the upper deck every Tuesday. For those of you not familiar with Anchorage, we are lucky enough to have a huge (& fun looking) library:

We've been taking advantage of the nice weather to go sit out on the grass and listen to the music. To be completely honest I should say we go sit out on the grass, eat food, chase children - and at least hear some light music in the background. It's a nice way to spend an hour with our friends! Plus, my father's work is just a few short steps away from the library so it's easy to convince him to stop by. Once we're all there it's not a hard sell to convince my Mom to come over, and we have a party. :-)

Genevieve & Jackson have just recently discovered that the blanket is not much of a boundary. Yesterday all the children were departing in different directions, having a grand time wandering around. Check out the look of glee on this face:

And a few more of the kids:

And a few of the whole gang - 7 kids yesterday! It's amazing how quick those kids start to add up when you get a few sets together. :-)



We had fun, but with the new found sense of adventure the twins have I'm considering the need for boundaries. Maybe a few super yards (a big set of gates that make a play yard) strung together - my friends and I were discussing the massive yard we could have if we each brought 1 super yard and combined them! We'll turn it into the music at the park day care hour and charge other parents for the option to drop their children in our huge pen. I think it might be a winning business plan! :-)
