We went to a Memorial Day weekend gaming event hosted by our friends Mark & Angie at their home in Dearborn, Michigan.
The weekend included many board games, yummy treats, sunny trips to the local park, and frisbee throwing.
It was great to have friends entertain Ezri while we played games.
Ezri enjoyed her first night ever in a hotel.
She loves kissing the baby in the mirror. No low self-esteem there.
Here she is with a goose for scale.
She started the weekend calling the goose “duck,” but now knows they are “goo.”
Ezri thought the local park was great.
She really liked watching Mark do yoga.
This is her version of the downward dog. She still has a ways to go on her technique, but she knows what a yoga mat is for. Yoga balls are clearly for pushing around on the floor and bouncing on.
Eric set-up a play tent for her in the living room.
The weekend exhausted Ezri as she was bathed in attention and new sights and new people.
Ezri really liked the household parrot, Norbert, who she called “twee-twee” most commonly. Norbert was understandably wary of the toddler. Though, we tried to keep Ezri from breaking one of the 4 house rules of the event – namely “Do not torture the bird.”
Ezri was sent home with a Timmy doll who she napped with the entire drive back to Downers Grove. This made the car trip good for everyone else. Way to sleep, Ezri.
Good times with good friends.

Great photo essay on Ezri’s trip to Dearborn.
i do wonder what the other house rules are…
Let’s see
1) Take off your shoes at the door.
2) Feel free to use the kitchen, but clean up after yourself.
3) something completely reasonable that I forget right now . . .
4) Do not torture the bird.
There were only 4 house rules.
I think #4 may have been written for Ezri though.
Nope. Rule #4 has been there for at least the past couple of years.
I don’t remember rule #3 either, though.
Rule #3 is “don’t leave your wet towel on a wood surface.”
