Traders Point Creamery

We visited Traders Point Creamery today. First we had a picnic lunch. Then the boys enjoyed climbing on these benches.

Charlotte really wanted that chicken egg.  However, the chickens chased after her once she touched it!


Look, it's a cow!


This baby calf had just been born.  Its body was still wet.  We also witnessed other things that happen after a birth.  It was SO much fun to try to explain to the kids.  They later described it as the cow was pooping and then ate its poop.  What an experience!

Car Trip

The kids have started raising their arms and screaming if we go down the smallest hill. They think it is their own personal roller coaster!

Indianapolis Museum of Art

We visited IMA to have a fun picnic lunch and to play with friends.

I was trying to take pictures of the kids by their ages. They both wanted to be in the picture!
Charlotte is 4.

Lincoln is 2.

I was also trying to get a cute picture of the kids together for a Father's Day gift.

Will this ever work?

Oh my!  Super cute faces, but not the picture I was hoping for!

The kids were trying to cooperate, but as you can tell from their faces, it was a very HOT day! I gave up trying to get a picture of all four kids together.

All of the boys...even if they aren't all looking!

Bowen & Lincoln - both looking at the camera...just not mine!


Charlotte LOVED posing for this.

Lincoln :)

This was unprompted and ended up being the perfect picture!

Monkey Joe's

I think this will become one of our favorite places to play.  The place is filled with inflatables to climb and to jump.  The kids had a blast!

Lincoln did a great job climbing this big inflatable!

Charlotte was very sweaty because she did NOT stop playing until we told her it was time to leave.

PBS Kids Day

PBS sponsored a free kids day at the park. My kids don't even watch PBS, but they enjoyed the activities.
 I think this will become an annual event for us!

Charlotte dressed as a princess.

Lincoln & Jack enjoyed the obstacle course.  I think Lincoln liked that he could almost walk through the hula hoop - something his size!

Charlotte had to jump back and forth over the jumprope.

Glendale Library

We love to visit the library. Our new favorite branch is Glendale. They have great little computers for the kids, a play area with legos and puzzles, and a fun storytime. The kids are also participating in their summer reading program to earn fun prizes. I won't lie...they typically just want to choose the candy treat!

Stacy & Bowen

I am so sad it turned out a little blurry!

It was very warm, so we had to visit the Splash Park at the zoo.

Bowen was a little nervous but holding mom's hand always makes things easier!

Here's a comfy spot!
