June 2011

It was such a beautiful day, Evan made Joel a Father's Day painting outside on the patio table.  He enjoys painting so much... I wonder if he will be a famous painter some day!  I dated it, wrote "Happy Father's Day!" on it and we gave it to Joel as part of his gift.  Who wouldn't love a piece of art made for them by their child?

 

We took Evan to Tuscora Park located in New Philadelphia and he was able to experience carnival rides for the first time.  He was reluctant at first, mostly because the buggies were very noisy with all the kids beeping constantly, but he soon got over his fear and enjoyed every second of it!  He rode everything multiple times, including the planes, ferris wheel, train and rockets. We ate some burgers and chicken fingers on a picnic table, then enjoyed some ice cream and headed home exhausted!  We will definitely be going back!

 

Right around my birthday, Chad brought Madeleine and Rylee up from Atlanta for a visit.  Evan had a ball playing with the girls and we loved having them over.  Evan drove Rylee around in his Mustang but only went in circles because he doesn't quite know how to steer it yet.
