First Visit to Cedar Point

Kiera enjoyed her first trip to Cedar Point! It was a girl's day...Kiera and I went with her friend, J and her mom. We started on the kiddie rides, but Kiera wanted more! She rode her first "big roller coaster" The Corkscrew.

Bay Days

Bay Days was all "girl power" this year...Mimi, Aunt Kate, me, Kiera, and Aunt Kate's nieces, A and S went together. Though they only see each other once or twice a year, these girls always pick up right where they left off and have a great time together!

Swimming Lessons

Another summer, another year of swimming lessons! Our girl is stuck in a rut in level three. This year, they placed her in level 3/4, but she still needs to work on her rotary breathing to get the front crawl down pat. We are going to sign her up for one more session of lessons before summer is over. Fingers crossed she'll make it to level 4! Here she is celebrating the end of lessons at Friday Fun Day...

The end of lessons calls for Dippin' Dots!

Wildlife Safari

Adventure time! We went to the Wildlife Safari park in Port Clinton. As soon as we pulled into the parking lot, we were greeted by this camel, which Kiera named "Two Toes." We then headed into the park to see spider monkeys, alpaca, tortoise, and an albino alligator.

After the the park portion, we got into Granpa's truck and drove through the wildlife safari. 





Good-bye Two Toes!
