The Carrot Man

At lunch today we were eating apples, and with the Johnny Appleseed Festival around the corner I decided to share that story with Owen. When I was done he quickly started his story about Johnny’s friend the Carrot Man. The Carrot Man uses dirt, rain, and sunlight to grow carrots in the ground, and the Easter Bunny like to eat those carrots. I love his imagination!

Tongue, Eye, and Brain

On the way to church Owen read a sign that said "Watch for ICE on bridge". At bedtime we were talking about our day, and I praised him for knowing how to read that sign. He said "Yeah, well my tongue helps me say the words, my eyes help me see the words, and my brain make me smart to read the words." So I guess it was a group effort to read the sign.

What a busy day

We planned way too much for today. It started at Fun Spot Park. Owen loved it and did great on the rides. Owen even rode three big rides with me. Although he would not ride the Scooby Doo swings. He attempted twice but each time he panicked and needed off the swing. Cameryn also made it in the swing once, but panicked. Other than the carousal Cameryn would not ride a single ride.


After that we went across the street to Sean’s friend’s lake house. The kids absolutely loved the lake. They could have splashed around that lake all day. Next time well have to allow more time to enjoy. Owen even got to drive the boat. On a sad note we were swimming at the same spot were a man died just minutes after we were there.


Then we were off to the Wizards game. Grandpa Mike’s work had a family night. The kids enjoyed some yummy food and snacks, playing on the playground, and got balloon animals. The poor balloon animals never seem to last long. Cameryn popped her pink flower on the way to the car. Owen had his blue elephant disassembled the next day. Maybe we can talk Sean into learning how to make balloon animals so we have a constant supply.

Pop go the Wiggles LIVE

We had a great time at Pop go the Wiggles LIVE. Our camera is broke so we had to use a disposable camera. I still have to finish off the second camera and get those developed before I can share any pictures. And our printer/scanner is broke so we'll have to figure that out before I can scan in pictures. We're not having very good luck on the technology side of life. Owen got a Captain Feathersward hat and sward. Cameryn got a Dorothy hat and tail. (Along with shirts, and a Dorothy doll) They were up all night running around being Captain and Dorothy.
