So we’ve discovered Lincoln’s “sprayground.” And it rocks. It’s close to downtown, it’s free, it’s free and it’s free. What’s not to love? Check out this little cutie, I’ll call her Twin #1, playing in a fountain.

Next up is Liv. Check out the water toy I’ve given her to play with—clearly, I’ve spared no expense in the summer toy department. (Me, digging in the trunk: “Yeah, I’m sure there’s something you can play with back here. Here take this old cup I found. No, that’s not dirt on the edge. I’m sure it’s clean enough. Go play.”) Livia seems to be eyeing the Bellagio-esque leaping fountains that surprised her with a water-up-the-nose hit on our last visit. I think she avoided that area entirely upon our second sprayground trip.

Here we have Twin #1 accompanied by Twin #2 and Big Sister. They’re playing on these cool space-age seats that spin around really fast. The speed and slipperyness of the seats didn’t faze the twins one bit.

Big Brother. I love the mohawk and the smile—this kid charms me.

    What, you didn’t want to get a picture of my streaky sunburn? Such cute pictures. I love that it’s Zoe next to the water, since she was the one who was quasi-afraid of it.

    Trago Park, 22nd & U (right by the Antelope Valley Project, near the Beadle Center on campus).

    I’ll have to call and schedule a day to meet you in Lincoln for a playdate! This looks awesome!

    Kris, I would love that!

    Linds, you weren’t streaky yet. I believe you were still lily white. ; )
