Fun With Friends

We have been blessed by time spent with friends these past few weeks.  Not only making our hot days seem more refreshing, but by bringing all sorts of different kinds of fun & laughter to our days and getting us that much closer to the baby's birthday!  We spent a day last week with little buddies: Ava, Owen, Ty, and Jack checking out the local sculpture tour downtown.

Over the weekend we joined the Rislers down at the County Fair where the kiddos thoroughly enjoyed the rides, and we (pregnant Mandi & I especially!) enjoyed the milkshakes!

Apparently this doesn't qualify as an animal that will eat her clothes or scratch her, as Piper was all smiles.
















Bennett, Mandi, Blake, Piper, myself, & Hadley anxiously awaiting the milkshakes.

And just today we spent a lovely morning with our dear friend, Cyndy, visiting the animals at Irvine Park and having a birthday picnic for Piper.  

Leave it to Cyndy to bring party supplies right to the park (hats, blowers, necklaces, & even wands)!  She sure knows how to make a 4 year old, not to mention her big sister, feel special :)
