Day 5 was a great day! Much better than any dentist could be.  We woke up with no plans at all for the day. We decided to rally and start our weekend ritual of pancakes and loud 80s music. I guess I didn’t get a shot of the pancakes but I did have fresh strawberries. My absolute favorite fruit ever, but they must be fresh and in season!

We headed to the park (this one is about 20 minutes away) to catch at least the end of our nephew Madden’s t-ball game. He’s a great hitter…and obviously keeps his eye on the ball while he’s in the infield…

We ran into our friends Mya and Lloyd with their grandparents at the park too. What a fun surprise because Holden’s first name he can clearly say besides Momma, Dada and Poppa has been Mya, usually at top volume. Sometimes he has called Madden Mya too, but he definitely knows who Mya is now. What I’ve really enjoyed is that he’ll be in the backseat saying, “Mya, Mya, MYA! I love Mya.”

We went on a train ride through the park, which was very cool. As we were headed out of the park, I texted our friends Scott and Erica to see if they’d want to come over for a BBQ. I wish I had gotten some pics of their cute kiddos, but I did snag this shot of the swing that may make for a big piece of art in our house someday.
