Peggy & The Giant Net

Peggy Sue got to go to the park with her family this afternoon. After we took the dogs to the dog park for some social time today, we decided that the kids could use some fresh air and run-around time too, so we decided to take them to the park. The last time we were there, I noticed that they had a GIANT spiderweb gym made of rope and couldn't help but think that Peggy Sue would be in heaven. So this time we decided to bring her. The park was booming with people late this afternoon and they all flocked to see Peggy. She of course is a show off and told them "I can talk, can you fly?" She was a little miffed about her harness as I usually take her places that are indoors and don't require her to wear one, but she still enjoyed herself and the giant net. This kids seemed pretty proud that we got to bring "their" Peggy Sue along too.

Here are some photos.

what a great idea bringing Peggy Sue to the playground, she's just a feathered 2 year old anyway! Nice pictures, she looks to be happy to be out with the family!

Those pictures are fantastic, I especially love the one where Peggy Sue sees Gabe but she is in focus and he isn't - that could be a beautiful framed photo. Awesome ropes gym, by the way!
