Adventures in Daycare: Now in Dolby Surround Sound

There have been some ups and downs with daycare lately, but let's focus on the ups!

Set your piggies free!

Dillon and Jackson reflect on things.

Art time!

Dillon never met a rock she didn't want to photograph.

Painting on: paper, hands, shells.

Practicing zipper skills.

Museum of Making Music

This museum didn't actually sound like that much fun, but as it turns out, it was! Fun for the kids who got to dance, and fun for the adults who all pretended for a brief moment we were in a band as we jammed on guitars, banjos and drums.

Mixing.

Jamming.

Hanging (with Maya and Jaxon).

Learning to Swim

Dillon took several rounds of swim lessons over the summer. Although far from actually knowing how to swim, she does have some basic moves down.

[Song is "River" by Enya.]

Whipped Cream Party

If Dillon were to recount the best day of her short life, undoubtedly it would be the day her daycare had a whipped cream party (proceeds went to cancer research). Dillon had the time of her life getting doused with whipped cream--and also eating a goodly portion of it.

Interesting scalp treatment.

Daddy gets creamed.

Mommy just gets a kiss.

Arming herself with a weapon.

Sticky, sticky joy.

Someone can't sit still for the group photo.

Aunt Julie! Aunt Julie! (III)

We'll round out Julie's visit with a trip to Julian for apples and gold mining. It was close to the campground and the apples made a nice cake.

Alek and Dillon enjoy the fruits of their labor.

Nothing more American than this.

Aunt Julie bought Dillon her headphone shirt!

Pretty excited about the gemstones she found.

I love Dillon's super casual pose and Alek putting his brother in a headlock.

Girls.
