Cousins Kelli & Ella come to town

Bath time

Blowing bubbles

My cousin Kelli and her sweet little girl Ella came for a visit and we were supposed to go to Sea World but it was 105 degrees and I backed out and promised other fun activities. So we swam, went to Kiddie Acres Amusement park (my camera crapped out) and we went to the Little Lounge Lizards Dance Party. This is held at Qua, a bar on 4th street between Oil Can Harry's and another Rainbow bar on Saturday afternoons for families and their kids under 10. There is a shark tank in the floor upon which you dance - it is crazy! Our neighbors joined us for some dancing fun!

My ongoing lifelong goal is to have more patience with Miss A. When we arrived at the dance party it was nap time and she was fussy and tired. I was frustrated because I thought she would love the place. What I have to remember once again... is that Ash takes 1 full hour to warm up to anything new. There is nothing wrong with this but I keep forgetting her mojo. So 1 hr into the party - she was a dancing machine. I love that little mess!

The other fun thing about the weekend was that this was the 1st time that the 9 months age difference between Ella and Ash was nonexistent even though Ashton is way shorter and Ella still thought she was younger

Great visit! Sea World in October!
