Playing at the Park

On May 13th after Church, we went to a big park in Fishers so the kids could play. Meanwhile, Mom and I could get another portrait session from Aunt Julie. She pointed out some really good tips and we learned a lot! It was also very hot and I have no clue how we didn't end up melting...:)

In the parking lot, they had a Verizon sponsored Indy 500 race car and a Verizon booth where they handed out free backpacks!


Fiona and Macy on a spin-around toy.


Tilly eating something. :)


Fiona and a flying saucer swing.


Bennett and Macy, getting spun around by the little dare-devils. :)



They had all sorts of cool equipment at this park and the kids loved it!


Aunt Julie took this picture of our family for our portrait session.


After the park, we went to a pizza restaurant.


We had BBQ Chicken pizza (my favorite!).....


....and a four meat pizza!


Happy Mother's Day!! I made a cake for Aunt Julie and Mom and we also had Meatball Subs, Coleslaw and chips! Yum....



The cake...


Say, "Mom!".


Macy and her neighbor, Lauren playing in the lake.


Bennett, going in. :)



The girls went to see the movie, "Chimpanzee" and the boys saw "Avengers". Chimpanzee was pretty boring, and I even have proof: Fiona fell asleep halfway through! :)


We went to P.E. with the MacDonald kids and we had a picnic afterwards.


Since the van was in the shop and Uncle Mike had his car for work, Mom drove the RV to P.E. with Aunt Julie shotgun!


Silas with Popsicle stains on his mouth, goggles from swimming and an excited expression on his face while playing the iPad. :)


Dad gave Tilly a ride in the wheelbarrow while he was working.


Tilly loved the pancakes we gave her one morning.


:)


We shopped at Meijer and Tilly loved the fish swimming in the tanks. :)


Fiona and Tilly planted flowers in Aunt Julie's backyard.


I was secretly making dish cloths for my Mom's birthday that was in a couple days (we told her not to come in the dining room!).


Dad, building the fence in his safari hat. :)


Fiona and Tilly, planting flowers.


Macy got a Spirit award from her Karate teacher!


Practicing her moves...


I held a garage sale at Aunt Julie's house for her, while she and Mom went garage sale shopping for Mom's birthday.



Dad and Uncle Mike picked up the new couch (found at a garage sale) for the basement. I sold their last one for $40.  It was fun bargaining with people. :)


Bringing it inside.


Setting it up.


Trying it out...approved!
