Call Day #116, 8/12/12

Morning cuddles with Daddy.

Goodbye hug.

The girls found some of the capsules that dissolve in water to give little animals.  Watching them to see what will grow.

After church, we watched the Dominican parade.  It's an annual event that makes it hard to drive home from due to street closures and I learned last year to embrace it rather than fight it.  So, we parked the car a few blocks from home, grabbed a lunch to take with us, and settled in to watch.

In time to see the fire truck at the start.

Not sure what look this is...

Eleanor watching the baton twirling.

Someone was giving out beads.  Eleanor and Claire both ended up with a few.

There were some ladies with pageant sashes.  I asked Eleanor what she thought of their shoes and she said she would like some like that!

Friends from down the street joined us and took this picture.

And this one of a smiley (and eating?) Eleanor.

We had dinner in the living room while watching some gymnastics on the computer.  They hadn't seen any of those events yet and I thought they might enjoy it.

When Claire got tired of it, she started trying on shoes I brought down from the attic to see what fit.
