spinning, castles, and pirate ships...

Sunday night we (Brian, Poppy, Cailey, Braden, and I) set out to go watch some fireworks and listen to a band. After driving there we discovered there were SO many people that it was closed off to everyone else. Poor Braden was SO bummed! He REALLY was excited about the fireworks! My dad decided to take us to another town where they had a street festival...the kids enjoyed it SO much better than they would have sitting around waiting for fireworks! They were able to ride lots of spinning rides and got really dizzy! By the end Braden had enough and Cailey just went on by herself. She will definitely be my roller coaster buddy...she even held both of her hands in the air! Afterwards we took them to a doughnut/ice cream shop where they both chose HOT FRESH doughnuts!


Yesterday we took the kids to a playground with "castles, pirate ships, musical instruments and zoo animals." The kiddos have been there before and had a fabulous time climbing, sliding, swinging, going on the see-saw with Brian and I, checking out the 'animals', and playing the instruments!! After lunch we headed back HOME and left Cailey at Nonny and Poppy's house for the week:)!


cailey has found a new love for tire swings and others
that spin!



kinsey was so excited to 'name' each animal
and was sure to say bye-bye to each one!



it was SO hard to get this pic of kinsey right!


i love this picture of braden! i've never taken a pic
of him 'throwing a fit' before, but i just had to! such a
sweet face!!

I didn't think Braden threw fits. He was so quiet when we were there. Speaking of which I need to get my post about our visit up...a week later.

it doesn't happen very often, but he does not like to hear the word 'no'.

Such great pics. Braden throwing a fit? Say it isn't so - that boy is always a perfect angel when I've been around him. Maybe he's a tad bit normal after all.
