We had a fun day. We woke up to a crazy thunderstorm and lightening. Oliver was so excited to wake up in the cottage. He woke up wide-eyed, jumped out of bed and started to investigate right away. It is super cute—he loves our old cottage (Mommy will post some nice cottage photos later!), all the old things in it, and he loves going to all the playgrounds in the Park! Aunt Jess and Mommy had fun roaming around with him in the morning.
We had fun shopping in Lafayette for a bbq we are having with family on Saturday. Oliver and Rachel loved being silly together. In the evening Grandpa and Oliver played at a playground, while Mommy took a break and ran on a quiet country road past a lot of corn and an old cemetery (kind of fun!). We had a great day!
"The Stand"
It is run by the Tri Kappa organization.
Eating breakfast.
Grammie got homemade strawberry- rhubarb pie.
The pie cabinet. Grammie's favorite!
The menu.
The other side. Yum.
Oliver playing while we were at the stand.
On the merry-go-round.
Talking into the fan. There are so many ways
to entertain yourself at park.
Aunt and Nephew. Cuteness.
The Hotel.
The side porch.
The inside. Oliver took is shoes off when we went in,
Mommy has taught him to take his shoes off when we
go into homes. It was kind of funny.
The hallway of the hotel.
We went to see what was going on in the art building.
Sweet sign.
Painters.
More sweetness.
Mommy and Oliver.
"Candy Stand" Not open yet....it opens after lunchtime.
Lafayette- Arnie's our favorite pizza place!
Cousins.
Our favorite salad!
The pizza is so so yum!
Mommy and Aunt Jess in front of a fun sign!
Cars were starting to park outside of Arnie's for a car show.
(Oliver didn’t want to pose again…it reminds Mommy of the quote she likes from
Randy Paush, “…his life will be his life.” He will come
around, she thinks she kind of knows how he is…)
We will get a good picture someday, but for now a lot of ours are silly.
At Sam's Club.
Aunt Jill and Grammie.
Oliver Winery Wine (Mommy likes the soft red wine, it tastes like juice.
Mommy wanted a picture with it, but Aunt Jess wouldn't take one.
Wonder why?)
At Wal-Mart. Guess where Oliver got that green
monster? Mommy won it for him at a claw machine!
Mommy tried to win one for Ra Ra but she couldn't get another.
Peeking out the back window at Aunt Jess and Aunt Ali.
Happy Indiana! We are having fun!
