Fishers Freedom Parade

Sunday we spent the afternoon at the parade

Here they come!!!!

We loved waving at all the people that went by and got lots of candy!

Fishers Freedom Festival

Saturday we spent the day at the kids tent doing lots of crafts, watching the dog show, and enjoying some treats!

What a great day!

Beaks, Feet and Tails

We spent a fun week at camp learning about animals.

We played fun games like stealing each other's tail

The sneak attack - Claire distracts Miss Cindy while Emily steals her tail! Clever!

We sang funny songs like Eh Ah Went The Little Green Frog
(Emily's eh ah face)

We splashed in the water park

Bathing Beauties -- This is trouble in the future!

And today we got to meet actual Birds of Prey

Yes that is a real mouse in the owl's mouth and we watched him eat it

Emily's reaction - "Yummy!"

Claire's reaction - too busy talking to the kid next to her

Mommy's reaction - gross ... are we really watching this!

Concert in the park!

We spent an awesome evening at Dillon Park listening to Living Proof

(photo courtsey of their website - Claire and Emily were right up front)

The girls had a blast dancing with their buddy Bella and made lots of new friends too.

A little rest and they were right back at it!

Berries!

Finally our raspberry bushes have started to produce some berries. Raspberries are our absolute favorite thing to eat so we decided to try and grow our own. Only Claire's bush seems to be growing so far. Thank goodness for the super packages of berries at Costco since we go through them so quickly because these bushes aren't going to cut it!

Happy Father's Day!

Our dad is truly #1!

We love you so much!

Holiday Park

We spent a fun day at Holiday Park

They have an awesome playground with a mega slide

Whoa!
Some great hiking trails

And neat little spots to explore by the river

We even spotted The Warner Family Statue

They have a cool nature center with puzzles and costumes

But you better watch out for this killer turtle

Backyard Fun!

Our backyard seems to attract the neighbors so we fired up some smores and spent the evening with our buddies!

Yummy!

Playgroup!

We finally get to join playgroup now that summer has begun

Our first date with friends we celebrated Cole's 3rd birthday!
What fun!

(19 kids keeping each other busy = happy moms!)

LET THE SUMMER FUN BEGIN!

Summer has officially begun for us and what better way to kick it off then with some slip and slide fun!

Emily and Claire really have become best buddies. They are so much fun to watch together! I love that they have a constant playmate and I think they do too ...

Color Me Mine

We spent a fun day with our friends this weekend

Pizza and then painting pottery

Emily picked a monkey bank

Claire picked a flower trinket box

Can't wait to see how they turned out ... might just be a big mix of brown!

We haven't quite mastered not mixing paint yet :)

Memorial Day Weekend!

We spent the weekend at Lake Sara

It was so much fun to hang out with Baby Olivia and Allison

And of course our buddy Jim Matusin

We got in lots of swimming

Playing at the beach

Pool time with Olivia

And Emily's favorite - boat rides

What a great weekend - thanks for having us!

I'm A Dancer

The final show had its crazy moments ....

The power went out before the girls final performance so everyone moved to the gymnasium to watch the show.

It was very cute and the final number included all the dance groups.

We even had some spectators - thanks Sheri and Katelyn for coming to watch us dance!
