concert in the park

Ojai has a wonderful park smack-dab in the middle of town named Libbey Park. It's quite beautiful for picnic-ing, playin and parading which is a lot of what we did. On Wednesday's, durning the summer, Rotary hosts a concert in the park with lovely big-band music, popcorn, lemonade and an old fashioned balloon march. While we always enjoy the park on our visits, this was an extra special treat for all of us.

h2o and more...

With temperatures soaring, we needed more than just the pool to cool off so off we went to check off 1 more item on the summer bucket list! Kids had fun but is it just me or are these places starting to seem really dirty? I don't know, I'm sure we'll be back next year...just to see!

It was a happy fourth this year with home-made ice cream, lots of family time, good friends, water slides, pool time, and fireworks! Gracie started swimming with no floaties so we were doing double the sparklers for her! It was an amazing holiday!
