Last Sunday, my family and I decided to spend the day in the park. We packed a picnic basket full of sandwiches, fruits, and drinks. We also brought a blanket, a frisbee, and a football to play with. When we arrived at the park, we found a nice spot near the lake. Dad and I spread out the blanket while Mom and my little sister, Emily, went to buy ice cream from the park's café.
