Summer Funtime

Ezra, Amira, Esme, Finn & baby Graham enjoyed an informative tour of the fire station this week. Actually, after we left Ezra said, "I never want to go there again" so I guess enjoyed isn't quite the word. But he did get to sit in the hovercraft and pose on the front of this fire engine. (He is hugging Esme, he's really gotten aggressive with his embraces.)


Ezra with Finn, who is a little freaked out at Ezra's aggressive hugs. Finn is so cute- when the fireman asked the kids if they'd like to be firefighters Finn said, "I just want to be a farmer."


Who is that handsome devil?


The fireman even let the kids spray the fire hose! I thought for sure this would win Ezra over. Guess not.


We had a picnic in the park and Ezra made this guy out of grapes in the grass. A sculptor perhaps?


We went to the carnival! We did it even though everyone that we know has boycotted. I don't really know why. I feel bad for the carnies. They're just trying to make a living like everyone else. We went on the merry-go-round, Ezra rode a bunny!


We also went on the spinning monkey ride and we went in the Fun House. I am 99% sure that the Fun House is the same exact one that I went in when I was little, it was in such bad shape. Tons of stuff was broken, it was amazing that they're still carting it around. Ezra loved it.


After the carnival we went to DQ for a treat (and then went home and brushed our teeth REALLY thoroughly). It was hot and humid and the ice cream melted faster than we could eat it.


We made a little mess.


Of course since I have not been working this month we have been spending a lot of time at home as well. Ezra is getting slightly better at hide-and-seek.

Hope you're having a great summer too!
