The Zoo!

Our first trip to the zoo this year!  We purchased the family membership again this year so we plan on going a bunch more times this summer.  Erin really enjoyed the zoo. Maybe even moreso than in past years since I think she understands more about animals and the world around her. She seemed to have a really good time!

The Tiger!

Look A White Tiger!

Mom! Stop taking pictures! Look a Giraffe!

I'm not entirely sure what the giraffe is doing to the ball in this picture...

How best to be transported around the zoo...

Followed a close second by:

Fishies!

Erin could have stayed in the goat pen for hours!

Erin heard the lions roar and ran to find them! That is a really neat sound if you've never heard it before.  They are so loud you can feel the ground shake!

Riding her big girl bike

Playing golf at SBCC

Chick Fil A

We had the opportunity to try out a free Spicy Chicken Sandwich at Chick Fil A.  We made our "reservation" at the local restaurant and we ended up getting a whole meal for free, three brownies for our whole family and we were waited on at a fast food restaurant!  I was very impressed and am telling everyone I know! :) 

Erin loved the chicken nuggets and is getting over her fear of the inside, plastic jungle gyms with tunnels and slides.

Dancing to the Music in the Restaurant

Erin gave her lunch "two thumbs up"

MMMM Brownie!

Erin & "KK"

Erin loves her aunts "Sissy and KK".  That is how Erin refers to Allison and Katie.  It is so cute!  She loves to play with them.  They help her play the piano, Foosball and Rock Band. And they have a lot of cool toys at their house that Erin can play with when she comes to visit!

Watching iCarly together!

Tuckered out!

"Paint"

Erin "painting" her face with Mommy's makeup. She is such a diva!

Bathing Beauty

Over Memorial Day weekend, we spent a few hours "poolside".  Erin loves her pool again this year! She can do the slide all by herself.

Trying to shoot her mother with a squirt gun! (The nerve!)

Ice Cream Truck!

We were finally successful in tracking down the ice cream truck!  She was very busy swimming in the backyard in her pool when she heard the telltale music coming from down the street.  We ran inside and grabbed her money and ran out the front door. We waited at the end of the driveway for the truck to drive by.  Erin picked out a Shrek ice cream bar (they had a WIDE selection of either Shrek or Pink Panther. Must have been a busy day).

Off to see Shrek with Gpa!
