We were busy all weekend! But we had a blast at every event. Here's what we did:
 |
We went to the high school stadium for "Band Community Night." Ryan was excited to see the "marching bam" and kept good time with the drums. |
 |
But first, they had the field open! Ryan was ecstatic to see they had "Track and Field" which he's familiar with from XBox Kinect Sports. |
 |
Friday night lights! The kids take off across the football field. |
 |
And, of course, there was the band. :o) |
Saturday was "Free Day" at many museums across the country. We chose the gorgeous fall day to visit Conner Prairie, all about life in the early-to-mid 1800's. The kids really loved it!
 |
Ryan knows how to do it! Get someone else to pump the water, then reap the benefits of their labors! He took off to water the garden. |
 |
And of course Bella found all the animals there! She must have smelled good to the horse because it wouldn't leave her alone! |
 |
I bought Ryan an engine, and he used it on the rails at the depot. |
 |
Bella was excited to find a purse "reticule" to match the sunbonnet she got in Missouri. She looked the part quite well! |
 |
She was fascinated with the women riding side-saddle, so she gives it a try. |
|
 |
Bella tried on a dress, naturally. |
 |
The problem with photographing Ryan is that some part of him always comes out as a big blur... |
 |
Checking out the canoe at the Lenape Indian area. |
 |
Bella cookin' away in the kitchen. |
In keeping with our lunch/nap/screen-free Sundays, we visited West Park. It was awesome for so many reasons!
 |
This was the main play area: three slides leading up to the silo, which had all sorts of climbing things inside. |
 |
Ryan and the swings. That kid would keep his behind in one all day if I'd let him. |
 |
What the kids labeled "The Eiffel Tower." Bella (in her sunbonnet and completely inappropriate glittery flats) is on the right. |
 |
But she made it to the top! |
 |
Lots of benches for photo opps... |
 |
There was a garden that Ryan mistook for a race track... |
 |
And a great big pond (lake?) with lots of fish and... |
 |
Ducks! Next time we're bringing bread. |
 |
You can't tell how ridiculously tall this hill is in this picture but it was HUGE! |
 |
Bella running the zig-zag path down. |
 |
So much for the adorable, idyllic photo of my two angels! |
 |
I finally got him to hold still! |
More of our adventures next week!
