The Nina and The Pinta

Last week, replicas of Columbus's ships, the Nina and the Pinta arrived in Louisville. Since Evan likes boats so much, we took him to see both of the boats. He LOVED getting on the boats and exploring. Carl and I loved to see how excited he got as he discovered new things on each boat.

Middletown Family Fun Festival and Henry's Ark

Evan and I attended the Middletown Family Fun Festival last weekend (Carl was at work.) Aunt Heather, Uncle Josh, Caleb, Jackson, Grammy, and Granddaddy were there too! Evan really enjoyed the parade. He got to see some cool cars, floats, horses, fire trucks and much more! Evan's favorite parts of the festival included getting a balloon and getting to see the fire truck!

Grammy held Evan so that he could see the parade.

Evan LOVED seeing the firetruck ans wearing his firefighter hat!



Carl was able to get a little time off from work on Sunday, so we took Evan to Henry's Ark. We have been before, but this visit was the best yet! There were so many animals out in the yard and we were able to feed and pet many of them. We saw many farm animals such as pigs, ducks, chickens, and goats and we also saw some more exotic animals, such as zebras, camels, a porcupine, and some reindeer! Evan wanted to feed the animals, but was a bit timid. He did try a few times though!

Here are some pictures from Henry's Ark!

Evan the Builder

Evan loves building towers. He will build a tower with just about anything, including cans of soup and rolls of toilet paper! While playing the other day, he built his tallest tower yet. It was bigger than him! Perhaps he will grow up to be an architect!
