A Local Military Celebration


 So, I have been checking out our cities parks and recreation website a lot lately, because I am looking into joining the community center. I saw that they were having a picnic and events celebration for military families in the area. I had plans for that afternoon/evening with a friend and thought this may be fun to attend before hand. Her family met us there and we had a blast! I was so impressed with it all! The food was good (some pregnant ladies were craving us some hot dogs), the events were fun and varied, and the people were all amazingly nice! We had a great time for free. A very good way to spend a Saturday afternoon.
 There were several vehicles to play in; military, police and construction.
 There was a petting zoo with a llama, goats, pigs, bunny, chickens, and more.
 There were 3 ponies to ride. The girls loved this part. Nater didn't ride, but he pet a pony.
 There were police officers and their canine dogs.
 There was a "smoke house" the girls went through with Daddy. I am glad they had this opportunity since we have been practicing fire drills and talking about fire safety at home.
 There were tons of bounce houses and slides.
 There was face painting and "fishing".
 There was even more activities and events after we left. Our parks department did a great job! We loved it!
