This is the second year that we have joined my mom for her company picnic at Oaks Park. There were a few rides Jillian picked as her favorites to do AGAIN and AGAIN. One being the carrousel, and the other the train that travels around the perimeter of the park. It was a warm day, she lasted about 3 hours. We all enjoyed ourselves and look forward to next year, AGAIN!
These pictures are from the last month. The tattoo pic is from a few weeks ago. Jillian grabbed a pen and decided to add some new ink to my leg. She worked so hard she stuck her tongue out.(just like daddy) The ice cream pic is from a couple nights ago when it was so hot she would barely even finish her pasta. We walked to Dairy Queen and ordered a kids cone. It was so big she asked to have it in a cup and polished off most of it.(just like daddy) The last pic is from Sunday. Owen came over for a play date and this is one of the cute shots of Jillian playing play doh at the table. Owen stayed for 2+ hours and the two of them managed to leave the house looking like a TORNADO hit it... Kids are the best!!
Summer hit here hard. We went from 50's to 90's almost overnight and never looked back. In order to cool off on one of those scorchers, the family decided to take a trip to the coast. Jillian had a great time digging in the sand, climbing up the rocks and other general mayhem. On one of her walks down the beach she found a starfish that was washed up. Dad wanted to keep it (it was dead) but the masses overruled and wanted to throw it back in the ocean. On the half mile hike back to the car Jillian was falling asleep while riding on Dad's shoulders. We kept her awake long enough to get her strapped into her car seat and I think she fell asleep right away.
