This weekend we went to Storybook Gardens, in hopes of meeting up with Rick's brother and family. It didn't quite work out as Rick's mom had hoped, but we still managed to have fun!! :) (We finally got together later at Rick's 'rent's house, so it wasn't too big of a deal!)

Zozo was freaking hilarious in the splash pad - nothing seemed to bother her too much! A little water sprayed in her face - a tiny recovery, then went back for more!!! LOL!



Look at those delicate little thighs... ;)


Instead of heading to the splash pad - Max got his face painted instead. (It was freaking HOT out that day, but still not big on water! He is soooooo his father's son!)
((I LOVE how they made his eye the dragon's eye!! He was bummed when he smudged it after his nap, and wanted it all off then. But at least he enjoyed it for a few hours!)



It is soooooo hard to get a decent pic of all 3! This was our attempt! ;)


(Ella had to kiss this frog before we left, and decided she didn't really need a prince yet anyway - she always has Daddy!)



Ella & Loren posing with a king, queen and knight. SOOO cool!


Max got to hold a real sword!


Knight Maxwell







And lastly, this was the Praying Mantis that was on Rick's car when we got back from SG. It was so cool to see it really close up. The kids stood in 'awe' around it!
