UPDATE: In November 2014 the playground area in Elizabeth Park was expanded. Pictures are below! ————————————————————————————————————- Cut to the chase. Take me to the Momsense.

Cut to the chase. Take me to the Momsense. Wow. Today was beautiful, wasn’t it? It was so beautiful, that I’m sad I couldn’t get this post up in time for some of you to enjoy this new-to-me destination today. Well, at least now it seems like we’ve turned a corner on spring, so there […]
