• Launching Rockets at Legacy Park

    Setting up the rocket!  3….2….1…. Blast Off!

    We met Jake at Legacy Park over his lunch hour to shoot off rockets.  The girls had a blast setting up, shooting it off, and chasing it down.  We shot off the rocket several times, on the last shooting it got stuck in the tree!   We had a grand time even though the rocket didn’t make it back home again!

    Karlie turning to look at the cheering squad. There was a daycare at the park while we were shooting off the rocket!  A whole group of kids were sitting on the steps cheering every time we shot off the rocket.   I think the had as much fun as we did.  Jake is trying to untangle the parachute so we can do the next round.

  • A Picnic in the Park

     

    Legacy Park in Greenville, SC

    Recently, I was able to meet Jake during lunch hour since I was in his area after an appointment.  I packed PB&J sandwiches and goodies for our picnic in the park.  We met at Legacy Park to eat our picnic lunch in the swing over looking beautiful flowers and enjoying a few minutes to catch up.  After eating we took a walk together around the park.  It was great spending some time with my man relaxing and talking for a little bit in the middle of the day.

    If you haven’t been to Legacy Park you should check it out, it is beautiful, quiet, and family friendly.  You will see kids playing on one of their two playgrounds, families having a picnic on the grass, kites flying, and people walking leisurely on the paths.  It is right off Roper Mountain Road across the road from Embassy Suites.

    Go ahead and take a picnic in the park with your husband or family.  It is a great way to get fresh air and spend quality time together.  It doesn’t have to be expensive or fancy.  Find a location near you so you save on gas and meet even if it is over lunch.  Having those extra few minutes to relax and communicate are valuable in every relationship!
