Sugar rush!

Dare I say we are emerging from kiddo helicoptering during soccer and at the playground afterwards and into adult conversation on the sidelines? What is this social life?

Parenting job security.

New (to us) beach! It’s so hot here in Seattle. We’re in search of all forms of cooling.

We’re loving our returned lawn and a new irrigation channel for our own personal splash park!

Race car speed ramps into the pool courtesy of birthday circuit parents with great ideas!

Creativity unleashed! Also, all the sparkles.

Frank emerged upstairs and Meryl and I jetted out of the house to find an eye shadow palette! We dressed up and Meryl of course needed her makeup done amidst looking at sparkly things:) Note her dress of choice: My dress from a historical past. JoAnn Fabrics pattern, yo!

Turns out, not many restaurants in downtown are open on a Sunday night…so we got Taco Time take-out and picnicked at Parsons Gardens for some tree climbing to close out the evening.

We met up with friends for miniature golf and had a…ball!

Let’s just say a lot of ‘natural matter’ found its way into the water:)

The friends birthday party circuit is hot these days.
