Another Exciting Weekend Comes to a Close

John took Friday off and we headed up to Oshkosh because you all know by now that we take any excuse to go up there and spend time with our precious little "girls."
We were going to Appleton to see Ron White on Friday night, so we made a day of it.
We started with a picnic by the lake in Menomonee Park, followed by the zoo, and a train ride for John and Soli.
Tiz and I had other plans which included a cake.
Soliana painted this beautiful picture on an animal house in the zoo.
 Tizita painted this cute bunny on the house in the zoo.
There were  slushies all around at the zoo.  They were so refreshing on this hot, humid day.
 While John and Soli rode the train at the zoo, Tiz and I went home to work on her cake.
Tiz loves to throw things together and create things.
This is her S'mores cake, no recipe, just Tiz's own concoction.
She used melted chocolate chips, marshmellows, and crushed grahams.
It was rich, chocolatey and really very good.
Perhaps Cake Boss is in her future.

John and I enjoyed our dinner and the show in Appleton.
We laughed a lot!

 And yes, we did finish this entire pizza!
 
On Saturday we took the girls up to Monkey Joe's and spent four hours having fun.
 They both love the big guy!
 WE had a great lunch and it included sodas.
 Soliana really enjoyed all the big slides.

 Of course, we had to buy a few tokens, play a few games, win a good amount of tickets, and pick out a few prizes.  Both girls were very happy with their treasures.
Soliana also enjoyed the area for the three and under crowd.
Here she is riding the Lochness Monster for her Uncle Cheddah.
 
We are home now and ready for bed.
It was a great, fun weekend of memory making once again.
