Some fun pictures from the end of May

 Evie and Kelley had a movie date to watch Frozen

 

Some friends came over for swimming on Monday night. Here the kids are eating ice cream bars.

 Here is Evie "deating," which is when you eat and dance at the same time.
She loves strawberry Eegees.

 

I had to take my car in to the shop to get my seat fixed. They took it out altogether,
and the kids had a blast playing around inside.

 Reading time with Hoody

 

Banana swirl for breakfast? 

Getting her face painted at the outdoor mall

Evie went to a birthday party and was in heaven when she saw all of the dress up clothes.

Swimming, Painting, and the Spash Park

 Grandpa D swam with Ike on Thursday

 

 

Happy Evie

 

Here is Matt trying to swim with both kids

Evie painted another masterpiece

At the splash park with Harper 

Back Together

 An emotional group hug after returning home from our trip

 Kisses and hugs

Happy Mama and happy kids

The kids (and Kelley, of course!) made us a nice welcome home collage

 

 Here are some cute photos that Kelley took while we were gone:

 Evie in her new purple dress

Ike at snack time

Ike went straight for the ball pit at the library play time...

...and Evie went straight for the dress up clothes.

Looking like a big kid

Nana, Granddaddy, Evie, and Ike

 Evie says goodbye to Scooter, the hamster (her last day in the Bear class)

 On Thursday, Evie's class had an end-of-the-year celebration at a nearby park

 The class sang one last song together

 Granddaddy swam with Ike on Thursday night

 

After swimming they went to dinner at McDonald's

Ike was more interested in the packaging than the fries

The next day everyone went to the mall. Here's Evie shoe shopping at the Disney Store:

 Where do I begin?

 Trying on shoes with Nana

 

 Riding the train at the mall

 At home in her Princess Sophia dress and shoes

 

 Another morning was spent at the Children's Museum. Here is Ike playing with the big kids.

Reading stories

 Dinner at Lerua's Mexican Restaurant

 

At the zoo

At the zoo's splash park

Here is Ike terrorizing Evie (probably kicking her back), which he clearly finds hilarious

It's always hard saying goodbye!
