Grandparents brought back these lovely chocolate frogs from their Switzerland trip

Ezri loved her frog prince so much that she wanted to keep it always and not eat it.

I pointed out this was not practical, but we could take photos to keep forever.

Ivan had no such qualms and was all in for frog eating. He said, “It’s chocolate!”

This is Ezri’s farewell photo for her frog. Her dad carefully flattened his wrapper and saved it in her sticker book.

She had to admit he was a delicious frog.

I think Ezri learned that even beautiful things don’t last forever, but we can enjoy them together.

Ezri was into the idea of a photo with our frozen yogurt creations.

Ivan was into his frozen yogurt. He would not look up for a photo.

Ezri loves everything about a place where you can extrude your own frozen yogurt into a bright pink cup and then put cherries, gummy bears, m&m’s, and two kinds of sprinkles on it.

As we left she said, “We shouldn’t wait too long to come back.”

The next photo is Ezri after leaving braids in overnight to get waves in her hair. I think she is a bit jealous of all the comments on her brother’s luxurious curls.

You scream. I scream.

We all scream for ice cream.

Ezri has cotton candy confetti and Ivan’s is something else chosen because it has all the colors of the rainbow.
I went for Mocha chip which Ivan shared with me after he finished off his baby cone.

Ezri wanted her photo taken as she was pretending to be Raven from Tiny Titans.

Heart candy

Ezri loves hearts and sugar, so this candy was perfect.
Though I did have to read each one to her, except that ones that said “I <3 U" she could read those herself. Also, we've gained heaps of freckles in the last two weeks. Both Ezri and I are very freckled.

Squirtie Selfie

Ezri calls squirting herself with the garden hose a “squirtie selfie.”

Ezri says, “Take a picture of me and this tiny grape. Put it on the blog.”

Done.
