Tower Grove Park

Last week Avery and I met some of the med-wives and their kids down at Tower Grove Park. It is right in the middle of downtown and is huge! We have been there before, for a class picnic, but haven't really explored it too much. There are tons of pavillions, trees, grassy fields, etc.

The activity was to go to the fountains and wading pool. It is free to the public and wasn't very crowded now that kids are in school. They had one bigger fountain and then a ton of smaller fountains that shot water up from the ground--like at Gateway in SLC.

Avery's favorite part was the wading pool. It was only a couple of feet deep at it's deepest point and so she could walk around in it. Most of the time she wanted me to bounce her up and down in the water, or to help her lay on her back or tummy and float through the water.

The girl in the pink Cardinal's baseball cap is Avery's best friend, Em. After swimming we went over to Heather's and Em's house for lunch. It was a very fun outing.
