Wading Pool

Ezri asked to set up the wading pool in the backyard. I told her I thought it was too cool.
She said it was NOT.
She said it is 75 and sunny.
She was right.
It was fun.

Ezri’s First Diorama

She was assigned the Coral Reef as her habitat for the project.

Finished diorama with ocean animals, coral, and shells.

Overnight with Brownie Troop at the Sci Tech Museum

Bridge Engineering Challenge

Tornado Tube

Moms eat pizza!

Bubble pull with woof-woof attached. All the girls enjoyed introducing the stuffed animals they’d chosen to accompany them on the trip. I ended up allowing this dog and her GIANT unicorn (aka Goldie) to accompany her because as she says, “I sleep better with Goldie.”

Getting ready to slumber on the floor

The troop together

The size iced coffee Amanda needed after an overnight in the museum. Dunkin even themed it with the scout logo.

Rollerblades

The knee, elbow, and wrist guards were a good idea.

C2E2 2018 with Squirrel Girl and Tippy-Toe

Costume parade, meeting talented artists and writers, first churros ever eaten for the kids, petting a baby kangaroo, free comic books, a circus to watch, lotsa of fabulous costumes – so many good things at C2E2 2018.

We met ANOTHER Squirrel Girl. She had tail envy.

Marvel meet-up

Showing off the Minecraft figurine she selected as her C2E2 purchase this year.

Giant inflatable hot dog. Squirrel Girl likes the inflatable mustard.

Dad is now carrying Ivan’s tail (in photo behind him). He is begging for circus peanuts. His sister had a pouch of them and would feed them to her BSFF (best squirrel friend forever) from time to time.

I found this one here. http://www.popculthq.com/2018/04/07/cosplay-photos-c2e2-2018-friday-part-1/
Taken by one of the many folks who stopped to ask Ezri and Ivan for photos. She liked posing Squirrel Style for them. Ivan was less into posing but he obliged. Though he pointed out his squirrel look was better back at Halloween when he had two front teeth.
