The boys and I headed over to the lilac festival. Yes, we could call it a field trip, or a celebration of the boys' last day of history this school year; or we could just admit that it was a beautiful day and we wanted to go to the festival to wander around and eat junk food! The above picture is our token flower picture - though I took several, none of them turned out well.
Picnic lunch in the park.
KiKi was feeling drinky.
The boys collected lilac blossoms from off the ground, and we had several moms give us nasty looks on the assumption that I was allowing them to pick them off the bushes!
CoCo can't go to any park without finding something to climb; this time A joined in.
Time for cotton candy bigger than their heads! Neil-Te, KiKi and A all wanted cotton candy. A is the only one who actually enjoyed it a lot, though he didn't enjoy his headache later!
CoCo and I split a funnel cake and ended up sharing with Neil-Te and KiKi who decided that they definitely prefer funnel cakes over cotton candy!
KiKi was so eager to finish off the last of the funnel cake, that he tipped the sugar all over my pants. Guess that I'm extra sweet now!Side note - decided to visit the chapel in the Divinity School across the road. What an experience. It is really a beautiful little chapel. Lots of carved wood, stained glass, and items of historical interest. After KiKi got over his fear of there being ghosts (wonder who filled his head with that idea ?- A!), even he was impressed.
