Kelly's Island with the Olinger family!

We had a blast over the long weekend traveling to Kelly's Island with our friends. The girls played so well together and had a great time with each other. We explored the island, putt-putted, ate lots of icecream, swam in the lake and played in the beach area, stayed up late watching movies and eating popcorn...and lots more fun things--great memories were made :)

Day 1: Putt putt was a must so Ady would stop asking :D

Lots of time was spent painting by the shirtless girls!

Wheeeeee!

What's wrong with this kid? Funny thing is, she can do a couple!

Lots of sliding!

Annie trying to eat the sand...silly!

Bryn loved the "ocean"

Playing boat!

Digging the sand, trying to build...off to another thing

Gracie "swimming on her belly"

Ady made a friend, this boy would chase her around for the frisbee!

Final ferry ride to land!

Ady sitting on top of the bench seat, looking over Lake Erie :)

Spent the day at Lakeside, ate more icecream!

It's official!

Bryn's confidence is overflowing, and she has accomplished riding on the sidewalk, turning around and even stopping (she brakes so hard and fishtails her rear tire...if there were dust under her, she would stir it up! LOL)!

Finishing up her turn around

Proudly smiling at herself and her accomplishment!

Ady has "transported" her bouncy ball all day :)

Bryn learning to ride w/out training wheels

Today we went all over looking to replace Ady's training wheels...when we had no luck, Bryn said she wanted to go home and practice riding Ady's bike without the training wheels (I worked with her last week but she wasn't mentally ready)....so we tried again. This time, she caught on and did a great job! She rode her little heart out and was so proud of herself! We even took the training wheels off of her bike! Later we tried to go on a walk, but riding on the sidewalk was too difficult...too narrow of a path for her to keep it going. So, I guess for now we will just be running up and down Largo Ct!

I captured Ady's face as she was watching Bryn ride down the street....what a face!! Yes, her shoes are on the wrong feet :D

Last day of preschool!

Today was the last day at preschool. She had a fantastic time! They had a magician come to the school, and Bryn was chosen as an assistant! The teachers served them cake and even had a "graduation ceremony"...she already can't wait for another year at Stonybrook!

Princess birthday party!

Bryn was invited to a princess birthday party! All the girls had to dress up in their favorite princess costume. Bryn picked Sleeping Beauty because that is what the birthday girl chose (I suspect a lot of pre-party talk at preschool!) As a special surprise, Sleeping Beauty came to the party all the way from Disney! :)

Bryn had fun playing pin the tail on the donkey....we suspect some cheating going on as all the girls pinned on the rear :D
