Sunny Weekend 2

Riding the lawn tractor with Grandpa.


Recovering from our fall (all smiles)

The turtle looks really annoyed huh?

A tete-a-tete with Mr. Turtle.
More pictures from this weekend.
June with the Turtle at Como Zoo. There was kind of a line of people waiting to have their picture taken, so we had to make it fast. That little thing was super hot too from the sun! Hopefully we didn't burn her little buns! Maybe that's what they're discussing?
We went to my Dad and Dianne's after Como and tried out the new rope swing he put up for June. It worked great, that's not why we fell off, I'm just that graceful. We're OK, no injuries. It's like 1 foot of the ground. She also got to ride the lawn tractor with my Dad. After they were done, she hopped back on and turned the key and shifted (don't worry it won't turn on unless you are also pressing down the break, which she can not do.....yet). So she's pretty observant, especially about how things work. Jeff always points that out about her.

Sunny Weekend

June checking out a duck at Como.


Giving the carousel horse a try.

WOW!


Stylish sunglasses my Mom bought her on Saturday.


Hailing a cab.

I had a really fun time with June this weekend. Saturday we met my Mom and Charlie for lunch and then walked around the Arbor Lakes Shopping area for a while.
Learned two things about June that day.
1) She loves generic 80's rock. Seriously. We were having lunch and the restaurant was playing something like generic Motley Crew and June started rocking out and banging her head. Scary.
2) June can be fooled into eating her food if you serve it h'or dourve style with a toothpick. I've decided to carry extra toothpicks with me now, for emergencies.

On Sunday, June and I went with Dawn to Como Park. We had a picnic and went to look at the flowers and plants at the conservatory. We also tried to ride the old 1912 carousel. We were fine until the thing started moving, then June got scared and wanted to get down. We ended up standing next to our horse to finish the ride. We'll go later in the summer and give it another try.
