Playing down by the river

To celebrate a new year, and to have a little fun with our first run in the jogging stroller for 2013, the girls and I went jogging on the trail by the river near here.  It was actually really easy for me (paved!  yay!) and the girls loved seeing the ducks in the river (there was actually water in the river.  amazing for Arizona).  Afterwards, I let them play on the giant rope-climbing structure they had near the parking lot (I have no idea where the playground actually is there).  It was a great morning of exercise and being outdoors.

Attempting to climb
L got the hang of it, though she didn't get very high.
E couldn't quite figure it out.  She needed Mommy's help.
L actually seemed to enjoy going horizontal more than vertical. 
She actually started pretending that part of it was a hang glider, like in Go Diego Go.  Silly girl.
E just kept approaching it from way too high for herself.  I couldn't get her to start from the bottom.  Sounds like me, really - let's jump in at the hardest point possible and see if we can succeed!  Argh, terrible trait of ours.  ;)
