A perfect start!

Saturday, Rusty and I had to shoot a wedding, but that morning, we woke up at 8 and went to the pool. From 8:30-10:30, we relaxed and had the neighborhood pool all to ourselves. It was heaven!! Surprisingly, it was already hot enough to want to get in the water and it was so nice.

Caitlin jumping in. Rusty is determined to teach her to swim this summer. She is VERY stubborn (I don't know where she got that!) and I think she may prove to be a challenge.

Renaissance Festival

On Memorial Day (yes I'm a little behind in blogging), Caitlin and I went with Kara to the Renaissance Festival. I had never been before and I just knew Caitlin would love it. I was right!! Luckily, we had a cloudy day with a little rain so it wasn't too hot and we got to see everything we wanted. Caitlin loved seeing all the people in costumes, especially the knights.



In front of the castle.

We watched a real jousting tournament. It was brutal!

My little fairy!

Why she wanted to ride the stinky camel, I do not know, but she loved it!

Her favorite part of the day was getting a dragonfly painted on her face!

She rode this kids ride that was a "jousting horse." They let you hold the jousting stick and try to get it through a ring while you ride. Caitlin just wanted to ride. I think she was afraid of falling off.

School Program

This year, the kid's program was on Nursery Rhymes. Each age grouped learned different nursery rhymes and songs.

Just like Uncle Andrew!!

Today I took Caitlin to school and they told me she did something funny yesterday. At nap time, the teacher Miss Christy told everyone to get up and strip their beds. Next thing, she looks over and Caitlin is totally naked standing there like "okay what now." Miss Christy freaked out and was trying to cover her up. She thought it was odd that none of the kids thought it was out of the ordinary. What was even funnier was that she said Caitlin was still asleep doing this. She could tell in her eyes that she wasn't fully awake. And the other day during naptime, Caitlin got up and was running circles in the room and trying to get one the other kid's cots. She was half asleep again. I thought it was hilarious. She likes her Uncle Andrew and doing weird things in her sleep!!

Caitlin Funny

I have been constantly not feeling well or struggling with a headache or exhausted and poor Caitlin has been a little neglected. Yesterday, we were in the car and I had a headache and she was just singing her heart out (very loudly). I asked her if she could sing quietly or not at all and she looked crushed. She asked why I always had headaches. I told her that your neck is supposed to be a certain way and mine gets out of whack. She said, "Are our bodies made out of whack?" I said no and she said, "What's a whack? What's it look like?" She is so funny!!

Car Wash

It started out with Caitlin playing in the sprinkler while Rusty washed his car. Then she decided it would be more fun to help daddy. She has gotten so big and is really a big help now!!
