Last weekend we joined the Brashers for a hot Saturday afternoon at the park for play and a picnic - it was perfect weather to feel like we are starting off our summer just right! It's the end of another academic year for Ryan and Jim, and there are a lot of changes coming up for both our families in the coming months as we plan to move on from our times at IU. (But trying not to think too much yet about saying good-byes.)
Melanie and I were especially feeling the heat on this day - both pregnant! (Together again! This time Melanie is a few weeks ahead of me. Their 2nd son is a few weeks younger than Gemma.)

| Thomas was a bit shy with Jim and the camera at first |
 |
| And Elijah was all smiles! |
A sure-fire way to get BIG grins out of Gemma: get her running!
 |
| The boys spent a long time happily bouncing up and down on the see-saw. |
Here's our picnic supper in the shade of the shelter. (Phew.) Awesome bread, hummus, veggies, cheese, meat, chutney, cookies and apricot danishes. Then the adults could sit and talk a bit more while the three kiddos ran around on the grass and decorated (at Thomas's initiative) a little fir tree with clovers and grass stalks. Yes, we all slept well that night!
