Splash Park

There is a great park a few miles from our house and it has a splash park that is open in the summer. Ian worked his way up to liking it by the end of last summer, so I knew it was going to be a place we would spend time at this year. I didn't take my camera to the actual park for fear of it getting wet, but I took some photos of Ian prior to his first day at the splash park this summer. I know I am kind of partial, but I think he looks pretty darn cute in his swim gear!




Kiddie Acres

A few weekends ago, everyone was healthy and the weather was nice, so I took Ian to the amusement park I wanted to take him to for his birthday...just a month later than anticipated. This park is a place that my parents took me and my brothers to when we were growing up. It was fun to see Ian discover and enjoy something that I had also enjoyed as a child.
Getting his first glimpse of Kiddie Acres. The excitement was pouring off of him!
Trying to figure out exactly what is about to happen prior to his first ride.

As you can see, he quickly got the hang of it.

Just checking things out while in complete control of his boat.

Waving to his fans.


The airplanes where Ian's favorite. I literally had to carry him out kicking and screaming after his last ride on the airplane...oh the joys of raising a 2 year old! :)

Sharing a funny moment with Uncle Justin.

Bluebonnets

It has been a while since I last posted, and I ALWAYS have good intentions of being better at updating. I put the camera right next to my computer to remind me to download pictures and post...but then life seems to get busy. The next few posts capture some of what Ian has been doing for the last few weeks.

We went out to MomMom and DadDad's house to get some pictures in the abundance of bluebonnets that central Texas was blessed with this year. It was a beautiful day, and I managed to capture some good pictures.
