Rain Boots, Puddles and Ice Cream

This last week we had a lot of rain, so Charlie was able to put her new boots to use!





I think I'm going to have to get my own pair so I can join in. Looks like fun!





Look how proud she is of herself!!



On Sunday we also took her for her first ice cream outing! I forgot to take a camera though!!! Sorry. But she was so cute. We got her a hot fudge sundae and the girl was really sweet and also gave her whip cream and sprinkles to make it even more special! She ate the whole thing and was such a big girl about it. She even tried sharing with Peyton!!

Afterwards, she was this crazy, sugar-high, ball of energy—which, as wise experienced parents, we had planned for and headed to the park along the river for more puddle splashing and some swinging and sliding. We were wet, but it was a lot of fun!!
