Lexi party!

Lexi had her 2nd birthday party this weekend, but I'm pretty sure Pop Doyle had the most fun of anyone in the family. 

The party was also the unveiling of Lexi and Ollie's new sandbox, which was too much fun. Did you know that frogs love to build sand castles?

Lexi had an awesome Minnie Mouse cake and all sorts of fun Disney stuff everywhere. I think we should find more reasons to have cakes...

Too cool for summer

Seriously, I make 90 degrees and muggy look sooooo cool. 

Dramatic viewing

Did you think there was any way that we were going to have Tommy and Shane visit for the weekend and NOT watch Star Wars? C'mon. 

Memorial Day parade

Saturday was the annual Bowie Memorial Day parade, one of our favorite events of the year because it seems like the whole city walks through our neighborhood. And this year, Tommy and Shane came down to see it all with us. 

The parade had everything: 

All sorts of community groups marching.

Fire trucks and other loud equipment. 

Giant flags and little flags waving patriotically. 

 

And goofballs. Lots of goofballs. 

Don't mess with my dog

He's with me. Don't even think about it. 

Jump around

A little more practice and we're ready for the Olympic high jump.

Afternoon snack

What? I need Cheerios if you expect me to mess up this room even further.
