A park was definitely in order after the kids sat through a whole session of conferences. This turned in to more than just a park visit, however....it became a park-naming ceremony. If you look very closely at Liza's face, you will see that she isn't sure if she is having fun up there or not. Soon after this shot was taken, she realized she actually wasn't having fun, and had actually gotten herself into a pickle; she was stuck! We had to work together to get her out in one piece (laughing most of the time...it was so funny)! After she had 2-3 similar park experiences there, we decided to name this place "Pickle Park" in honor of Liza!

Dane and Jonah (both hard to see in the back row) in their favorite school class, Art with Miss Chris. On this day, they drew monsters!

While I was holding little Juliet, Christian got very close to her...almost nose to nose....it was so sweet. Then he whispered to me, "Mom, I smelled Juliet's breath, and it smelled like....nothing."

We had the best morning with Auntie Alex and cousins Charlie and Juliet! We colored, played dinosaurs, drove jeeps in the driveway, and had a snack. Charlie and the boys kept hugging and Charlie kept spontaneously exclaiming, "I love you, (cousins name!!)!!" It was so much fun to have them here!

Check out Liza's swimmer back muscles!! She has been working hard!
