Pizza and Splash Park

PIZZA! This is what we had for dinner one night and the coolest part about it was that we made it ourselves! Growing up I remember making homemade pizzas every now and then and I remember how much fun it was so I decided to let my child and her cousin, Kylee, have the same experience. They had so much fun playing in the dough and adding the toppings to their pizza. Addison played with the dough, but I had to add the sauce and all of the toppings to her pizza because she is not quiet old enough to do it all by herself. Kylee had fun playing in the dough too and didn't want to stop to add the sauce and toppings to her pizza. Hopefully we will get to have this same experience again when Addison gets a little older and then she will be able to make the pizza all by herself! The pizzas turned out great and were delicious too!

Adding cheese to the pizza ... looking delicious!

The finished products ready to go in the oven ... delicious looking and tasting!

On day 2 of Kylee's visit with us, we went to the Splash Park in Opelika. This is definitely a plus in my parent book! Both of the girls loved playing in the water and there was enough water for everybody to play with! We will definitely be returning to this splash park and hopefully we will be able to bring other cousins and friends with us next time. Addison is such a water baby and it was perfect for her to run through the sprinkler like water area and slide down the little water slide that she could climb up the steps by herself on. She's growing up so fast and amazes me everyday.

Addison "talking" to her shadow .. not really, but it sure does look like it in the picture!

Kylee sliding down the water slide .. they loved the slide!

Playing in the water ... don't get wet!! Haha

Kylee got soaked under the bucket! Addison was walking by and one of the buckets turned over and got her too and knocked her down. We stayed away from the buckets after that, but Kylee kept running under them waiting for them to turn.

Kylee was catching Addison as she slid down the water slide.

Water fun at the water park!

I think it is safe to say that she was having fun! Woohoo!!

Two's Company

We recently got to visit with one of Addison's cousin and my niece, Kylee! Kylee lives in Montgomery with her family and will be starting "Big School" aka Kindergarten next week. Since we won't get to see her too much, Kylee came to spend a few days with us for the summer. The two days that Kylee was here were filled with fun! We took a few trips out of the house to show Kylee how much fun our town can be. We ventured out to Froglegs in Auburn on the first day. I know what your thinking if you're not from the area ... FROGLEGS?? What in the world is that? Well this was Kylee's same response and once we arrived at our destination she quickly figured it out! For those of you who don't know what Froglegs is .. it has inflatables indoors for kids to run around, bounce up and down, and slide down the bouncy slides. Needless to say, Kylee had so much fun and I think it wore her out! Addison got to play around at Froglegs too, but she wasn't so sure about it at first. She didn't want to jump around or slide down the slides which is so not like my child if you know her ... she's not scared of anything!

Addison finally decided to slide down the slide with a little help from Kylee and she loved it!

Kylee was worn out by the end of our trip to Froglegs!

When we were all exhausted from bouncing around and sliding down the slides, we took a lunch break at Chick-fil-A and then headed home to rest! We had more fun played for later that night and the next day which I will tell you about in another post!
