Fun Times

This weekend brought some casual moments at home.
Some we don't have photos of: making blueberry muffins, playdough adventures, tricycling to the park, Thomas making pear-filled crepes last night for Estelle. Others, we do:
Discovering that under the desk is a fun place to hide:

Trying own Halloween costumes and pretending to sting your parents:

Building a fort using most of the furniture and blankets we own:



Showing your doll-baby your new fort:

Making oatmeal butterscotch cookies with lots of old photos of Cousin Wayne hovering above:

Waiting patiently in favorite new desk-hideaway for cookies to be ready to eat

C is for Cookie

Bolstered by butterscotch sugar highs, off we went to Parc Vigier. In passing by the port, I noticed this one little fisherman boat with the massive cruise boat as a backdrop:

And who do we run into at the Parc (not our usual haunt park, either!) but Ines and her Dad. These girls were happy to see each other. They shared a springy-thingy and managed not to kill themselves.

First Estelle in front

Then they had to switch

Then they wanted to pick all the flowers

Then they walked/skipped/jumped/hollered their way back to our neighborhood together, much to the calamity of the parents hollering behind.

Very cute, both of them. Looks like fun playing "hide and seek".

Oh my gosh will we even recognize Estelle? I can't believe how she's stretching out!

Butterscotch cookies are my favorite.

Nice boxer shorts, Thomas.

The Playboy bunny boxers are amazing.

Now all you need is a white The Terminator baseball cap. Or is that still in Angers?
