early out

Early out for the kids, a day off for me and a trip to Iowa City for all of us. The kids visited S at work, then we picked up Greta and headed to Dick Blick. At the park, rock climbing and art lessons. Dinner with G and John and Hu Hot. The s'more dessert, very entertaining, worth every penny. No injuries were sustained.









Marshmallow cooked in the shape of a bird!


s seems pretty singleminded, G, all over the place


G read us the s'more directions. No waving flaming s'mores, no poking anyone in the eye. Be nice to your sister.


Thanks for such a nice day guys! xoxo!
