Family Campout

Bijan and I do a "Mommy and me Class" at the school where he will be starting preschool in the fall. They have an annual family campout event with great activities- many families bring tents and spend the night. We decided to go and enjoy the festivities and opt out of the sleepover (maybe next year). We had so much fun we really didn't want to leave. Bijan especially loved seeing his teacher and getting to play on the big playground which will be part of his classroom next year.

Here is Bijan playing in the "River" an awesome water play area on the big playground.
The river winds around and has a bridge and a waterfall. Bijan did lots of "work" in the river and ran around and splashed- I imagine he will spend a lot of time here next year.

And in the end the clothes came off...

Playing the banana shaker and enjoying the live music.

Trying to slide down the steep hill with the big kids.

Bijan spent a lot of time trying to swing across the monkey bars and eventually he was able to swing across two rungs- he was so proud of himself.

Roasting marshmellows for smores- yum!

In this picture you can see Bijan is wearing his mesh backpack that he got at the beginning of the campout to put all his treasures in- he wore it most of the afternoon and night. He also has on the glowstick armbands his teacher's daughter gave to him.

Packing up and heading home.

Strawberries!

I know I have "overposted" farm pictures- but I just love these. We went strawberry picking with our Mommy and Me class and you can see that Bijan has really got the hang of the farm life.

This smile tells it all- we are always so happy out on the farm.
Picking strawberries

There were big, beautiful strawberries ready for picking...

and eating.

Mother's Day Weekend

We spent Mother's Day morning in HB Central park with a yummy breakfast, live music and a long walk in the park. I am so lucky that I can be with both my boy and my Mom on Mother's Day.
Celebrating Grandpa Al's birthday. Here is Bijan helping Grandpa Al with his presents.

Bijan spent 3 hours "swimming" in the pool.

Here he is "waiting" with Vanessa for Daddy to retrieve his torpedo pool toys that he threw over and over again.
