a little taste of rain...

the umbrella was much more fun when it was used to catch the raindrops :)

yum, yum!!

a little shout out to the Leets....thanks for the Exact Target umbrella :)

bike helmet, winter gear & fish

Since watching an episode of Elmo on bikes, Maryn has wanted to get a bike helmet. She was so excited that she wore it during dinner! Never know what dinner will bring...better safe than sorry :)

Ready to bike!
Now she is requesting a bike with pedals :)

Of course on one of the hottest days of the week Maryn decided to play with her winter gear. Brrrrr....it's cold!!

Lately, Maryn has been in to pretending she is animals. Here she is being a fish swimming through the house. The other day she was a cat licking her hands or "paws". When she got up from her nap she was a roaring tiger. It's so cute to see her using her imagination!

Memorial Day weekend @ the lake

After the parade we headed north to the lake for the remainder of the weekend. Luckily we got there just in time for a sunset boat ride. Maryn loved the lake and was super excited to play in the sand and water. She took her first big swim and wanted to do everything herself! I think we may have a little fish in our family:)

Indy 500 Parade

On Memorial Day weekend we went to the Indy 500 Parade. Jeremy's work does a little "pre-party" for families with lunch, ice cream, live music, tattoos, balloon animals, and of course cotton candy. It's a great time!

Indians game

In late May we went to our first Indians baseball game of the season with our friends the Conrads and Millers. It was a perfect evening! Maryn loved watching the field and was particularly fond of Rowdy, the mascot. Unfortunately, baseball games can be pretty long and we only made it through the 5th inning. Lots of fun!

the best way to make sure you don't miss a drop...
