Italian Fest

What a weekend!  We packed in a lot of family fun by kicking off with the Italian Festival.  Held downtown at the Holy Rosary Catholic Church and Lacy Park, this is one of Andy's favorite festivals of the summer.  It provides lots of yummy Italian cuisine, rides and game for the kids, and live entertainment for the adults (and kids, too).

Emma enjoyed herself on the handful of rides that they had.  That girl loves rides and heights, I'll tell you what!  Drew even got to take part in the Mega Slide.  Which he loved.  He just laughed and laughed and laughed.

Then on Saturday, Andy & I got our fitness on where I did the Tour de Cure and Andy did the Carmel 1/2 marathon.  More posts to follow on those events.

Saturday afternoon I was surprised by the one and only MALNAR, who came down from Chicago to spend the night with one of her college friends.  She had some time to spare, so we spent an hour or so together before she had to head out.

She then joined us on Sunday for a trip to the zoo.  It was ridiculously crowded yesterday, because the weather was absolutely perfect; not too hot, gentle breeze, just fantastic.  We even splurged a little and let Emma get her face painted.  She was a beautiful butterfly.

We capped our fun, family-filled weekend off with a bike ride to the play park.  Such a great weekend!



I love going on rides with Emma! 


And Daddy does, too!




Fish Face! 



She always has to be in the picture!
