Fun Days

Fun Days was hot this year.  It was so hot they shortened the kiddie parade route and we actually had to walk over to Monroe to view it.  Amelia's girlfriends and cousin Elise came with us to watch the parade.

It took Amelia a few tries to get the fact that yes, she could run into the street to go pick up the candy.  She would go get some and then come back to sit on the blanket and I would have to tell her to go get some more.

When we came back each girl got to eat one of their suckers.  They decided to eat them on the steps while dancing.

On Sunday we had Lucas' family over for a cookout.  Then we went over to fun days to look at the petting zoo and car show.

Amelia wasn't sure about petting the animals but it helped to have her bigger cousin Athena petting them.

Then we tried to get a picture of all of the kids.  This attempt turned out way better than Christmas since Amelia and Elise have come to adore each other.

Elise and Evelyn also like to play with each other.  Especially when Evelyn has fun sandals on her toes!
