Splashing Around

Allie and I joined a few friends at a local splash pad for some fun in the sun. We had never been before and Allie just loved it! She had a great time running from fountain to fountain, usually squealing with joy along the way. We'll definitely have to head back to the splash pad again this summer.

Go Reds!

Nick and I realized that we had not taken Allie to any Reds games this year so we decided to check out a recent game against the Braves. We got her a new Reds shirt and I made her some matching bows (of course). She looked so cute!

Nick's Mom was able to get us Champions Club tickets from work so Allie got to sample a wide variety of ballpark food, free of charge. She enjoyed the soft pretzels, ice cream sandwiches and popsicles as big as she was... oh and the peanuts. She could not get enough peanuts! It was so cute to hear her yell, "GO REDS, HIT THE BALL" and "HOME RUN" during the game. She enjoyed the game for he most part until the crowd went wild for an inside-the-park-home run. That led to a few tears. Her favorite part of the whole day was getting to play on the playground at the stadium. Who would have thought?

The popsicle was almost as tall as she was.

Big smiles after the Reds win!
