OK, so after a few weeks of inactivity, its time for a bit of a photo dump, but with some context. May has been a fun and busy month, and as we now sit in the middle of a sunny and warm 3 day weekend in Portland, OR, its time to look back a bit on some things we did this month as we get ready for (official) summer!
Continued thanks to all of our great family and friends who we love spending (not enough) time with! Enjoy! ~The Ericksons
This is a new trick, making "paint" out of chalk dust and water, and then doing cave paintings and hyroglyphics on the cement. A bit creepy but very fun...
Another Superhero Sunday with our good friends the Bruggers:
Because Sam's birthday is in July, his preschool class teachers have set up special "birthday" celebration days for kids who have birthdays during the Summer. And on a birthday day, the birthday kid gets a birthday crown to wear all day. Just so happens that his birthday celebration fell on our snack day, which is nice....
Sarah and Liz took the kids to Multnomah Falls for a nice mid-week hike:
We had a great visit from Sarah's grandma (GG!)
Sam made Amy a crown, too (it's pink and she liked it):
Hanging out with our good neighbor Molly:
Dad went to Seattle last week for a 3-day conference and both kids got Ichiro t-shirts. Ichiro!
Saturday morning painting distraction so that Dad can make waffles and coffee in peace. Not entirely successful, but fun anyway...
Lunch at Cousin Kaja's house...
Bath time!
Bike trip to Sellwood Park tonight for a picnic dinner, and Amy's new favorite thing...the big red slide.
This was today, too. This is hilarious and cracks me up looking at it. At Sam's urging, the kids dressed up in life jackets, helmets, and sunglasses to be "spacemen". The kickboard is Sam's spaceship. He is taking it very cool and seriously, as you can tell...
