Ashby Park

Even though its been ridiculously hot and I'm set to have baby number two any day now, my two year old daughter and I still enjoy the great outdoors.  We make a point most mornings to go somewhere.  Sometimes its the pool, a friends house, the zoo, the library or a park.  We met some friends out at Ashby Park in Des Moines this week.  I've never been there and what a gem!  It has two playgrounds and a splash pad.  We had so much fun.  Sure, the few hours we were there the temperatures when from seventy to ninety five but it was worth it.  We will totally be going back.  Aren't we lucky to have so many cool parks in the metro?!?
