The Fun Spot

Yes, that is actually the name of the park. We got our carny fix today and sweated while running from ride to ride. We loved the Tilt-A-Whirl and Scrambler. Mom was not such a fan of the Ferris Wheel (I kept telling the kids not to rock back as they laughed). I think we might need to do this again before the summer ends!

And there he goes....

Max cleared a major milestone today, he rode his bike WITHOUT training wheels!! While Holyn and I were attending a birthday party, Max and Dad did a little training. Lant said he asked him if he wanted to try it and Max was game. The kid looks like he has been riding for years on two wheels! Holyn is working hard to keep up with little bro. We'll keep ya posted on her progress.

Max turns the big 4!

Max turned 4 today and we celebrated by inviting a couple close friends to Chuck E. Cheese for a surprise birthday party. Max wasn't really that surprised, but still happy. He wanted a dino cake, so I searched the internet for a recipe and this is what I came up with (looks more like a lizard, but he was thrilled). Thanks to Boppa, Mom, tooth picks and a whole lotta frosting it turned out great! Max and his buds ran around playing games and having fun for hours. Max loved shooting the guns with Dad, but needed a little help in the height department.

Surfin' USA

Grandparents, a Slip n' Slide and sun, need I say more? They surfed until they were sore, and still wanted more. Dad got in on the act too (can ya believe he doesn't want me to post his picture?)
