It was good to get together with the families of the kids who our kid knows like family. It makes us realize what a unique situation Owen is in and, to a certain extent, lament the fact he's going to be leaving it soon.
Dawn has been good with it. Owen's "crop" has been the second group of kids to have gone through the daycare and moved on to more grown-up endeavors. It has to be tough for Dawn and for the kids to have this connection severed. I suppose that's part of life.
It was really fun to have everyone together, relaxed and having a great time all because our children spend most of their waking hours together. It was a little serene to know that it's kind of the end of a life chapter.
Playing parachute with Tim and Niah.
Using Russel as a human trampoline.
Sitting at the kid's table is pretty okay at Dawn's house.
I like this shot because it has all of the kids having fun in some way or another. I think Owen's stuck.
Carie made dirt bowls for dessert and the kids enjoyed them. It's crushed up Oreo's, pudding, more Oreo's and gummy worms sticking out. Needless to say, the evening ended with a ton of fun energy and a huge crash. By the way, Dawn has been asked more than once if she runs some sort of an Arian daycare. All the kids are blond and oddly, not one parent is.
Keeping little hands out of the mother-load of sugary goodness was a little tricky, but we managed 'till the party.

Owen looks just like like a short Eddy in the last shot of the kids. Cute. and it looks like they are enjoying the mud pies--yum yum! Love, Trina
