Finger Food

Here is Will having a few sweet potato poofs. I think he averages getting 1 out of 3 in his mouth.  It sure keeps him entertained.

Poofs

Pool

Our neighborhood pool just opened for the season. We have been eagerly waiting for this day!  Ryan (our fun neighbor) even came along. He was a super helper and even helped encourage our Madeline to be brave.  Will wasn’t too sure about this pool thing.

Here we are on our way.

Could we haul any more stuff to the pool?  Be watching for many more pool updates this summer.

Tea Party

Madeline decided she wanted to have a tea party with our neighbors across the street. So that is exactly what we did.

We invited them over for a breakfast tea and they even brought cinnamon rolls!

Here is Drew (Sophomore in HS), Ryan (Freshman in HS), Brenda, Me, and Maddie. Aren’t they the nicest guys to come to a 3 year olds tea party.   We invited them the day before and the day of Madeline only went over 2 times to remind them. She was so excited she even waited on the porch.  I think we might do lunch next time. Have I mentioned lately how much we love our neighborhood?

Memorial Day Weekend

For the 3 day holiday we headed to Tipp City, Ohio to visit Nick’s family. We sure packed a bunch of adventures in a few short days.

Maddie & Will got to snuggle Aunt Pauline.

(Grandma Linda’s Aunt)

Will showed off his sitting skills.

Andy cooked some yummy ribs for a fun BBQ.

Here are all the Rib eaters, The Schindlers, Arwoods, Monroes, Wisecups, and Boggs.

We used Linda & Andy’s backyard for a photo backdrop.

 

Grandpa Ross said I need to live it while I can, it won’t be too long that I get to dress Will in polka dot shorts.

 

Then we headed to a very fun 6 year old birthday party for Abbey. Madeline loved being around the older kids. They had a water slide, bounce castle, cake, snow cones, and yummy snacks!

 

 

 

Everybody took a turn holding Mr. Will. Nancy was trying to teach him how to wave.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Even swimsuits are more fun with a tutu!

 

 

 

Will was just about done with the party. VERY TIRED!

Grandma Linda and Maddie had a parade through the backyard!

Madeline even took Will for a ride on Nick & Eric’s old John Deer.

Will was a great at holding on and Madeline was a very safe driver.

We even found time for a picnic and a hike.

Will loved the backpack!

At one point Nick was carrying both kids!

Loving the hike!

Close call?

Andy & I thought somebody was going to end up in the water, but nobody did! I had already started counting my money from America’s funniest home videos!

We had a great visit! Thanks Andy, Linda, and GG for making it so nice!
