We need more access to a tire swing. This once or twice a year thing is just not cutting it. Instead of going simply forward and backward, these go side to side AND in circles. Nauseatingly awesome.

Goodbye, good friends
We had our friends Evie and Jane (their Mommy and Daddy too) over for dinner tonight.
It was a beautiful night and we had lots of fun playing outside.
After dinner, when it was too cool for swimming, we found a way to have fun in the empty pools.
We had such an awesome night, it was really hard to watch them go. It was especially hard this time because we may not see them for a very long time. They're moving away in just a couple weeks.
Juicy strawberries
We picked some pretty juicy strawberries today.
Yes, we did pick some, but Mommy, as usual, did most of the picking.
We did most of the eating.
We did some sharing too.
This is probably our last visit to the strawberry patch this year. We did our best to fill our buckets; between bites of course.
Time for tea
After picking strawberries this morning we stopped by our favorite tea shop for a little snack.
They brought out our milk in a little tea pot. It was lovely.
New zoo friends
We generally pay the most attention to the real animals at the zoo. During our trip yesterday with Grandma and Mommy, we thought we ask the animal statues how they're doing.
Welcome home doggies
We finally got to see Anni and Hairy today. They took a little vacation too.
Grandma and Bumpa took care of them while we were gone. Today, Grandma came by to drop them off. Anni was her usual crazy self.
Hairy leaned right in just like he always does. It was great to see them again.
After all the excitement died down, Grandma ended up staying with us for the afternoon while Mommy and Daddy went to another "meeting", a.k.a. the Twins game.
Sideways rain
It was REALLY humid and foggy this morning as we were leaving. There was water on the window and as we were taking off, it starting moving perfectly sideways across the window.
We had a pretty long layover in Atlanta. We did lots of airplane watching.
The whole adventure was pretty exhausting though.
Goodbyes before sun-up
We had to say goodbye to everyone this morning. It was so early the sun was still sleeping.
We did our best to pitch-in, helping Grandpa Stro push the button on the automatic trunk door.
Great Grandma Dodie was the smart one of the bunch. She said goodbye as we left the house, then she went back to bed.
Zoo closeup
At Grandma and Grandpa's zoo, the animals can get right up close and personal. Check out this giant tortoise. He swam right up to us. He just a little too big to go through his fence, maybe we can go in next time.
You would not believe how may alligators and crocodiles they have there. This is only one small area of alligators. They were everywhere. Some were bigger than Daddy.
They also had a 500 pound tiger there. While we were visiting the tiger, the zoo workers came by to feed him. He climbed right up the fence and got his food. Mmmmmmmmmm turkey necks.
When it was time to leave, we stopped by the rocking chairs and rocked out with Grandma.
Breakfast hunt
This morning Grandma helped us go on a breakfast hunt. We were searching for dinosaurs in our oatmeal.
Ahhhh, outdoor baseball
Can you believe there are teams that play baseball outside? Apparently there are lots of the too. Grandma and Grandpa too us to watch the Pelicans play yesterday.
We also had some popcorn while we were there. A great big tub of it.
It was a great night to watch a baseball game outside and it was a great game.
