Day 36 - Kickball
/Four important things were accomplished on this Monday.
1. The kids had fun swimming in the pool
2. We had a delicious lunch and dessert at The Creel (our favorite restaurant in Westport)
3. I was able to upload quite a few pictures and catch up a bit on blog posts (Thanks Creel!)
4. Kian learned how to play kickball
Spicy lamb naan pizza - It was scrumptious
Little swimmers loving their delicious chocolate cake and milk
Hannah watching "Dora Saves the Mermaids" for the 10 billionth time :) as I type up a new post
One of the things we really love about The Creel, aside from it's amazing variety of food with great quality, is the atmosphere. It is very relaxed and airy. They have some normal tables with chairs, and they also have some couches with coffee tables, which makes it a really great spot to just hang out. Check it out if you are ever in the Westport area.
After a while, the laptop battery was totally drained, and the kids were stuffed with chocolate cake, so we packed up our bags and headed home. I started working on dinner while Kian and Daddy started playing kickball. Hannah was just walking around saying she wants strawberries, and she refused to believe me when I repeatedly answered we don't have any!
She did eventually compromise and took a strawberry yogurt instead.
I joined the kickball game while dinner was cooking in the oven. Hannah also joined the game after a while, but was having a hard time grasping the rules. Kian was great at holding her hand and running her from base to base, and then acting as her shield if we tried to throw the ball at her in between bases :)
We all had a great time outside, and it was a bit after 8 PM when we came back inside and ate our dinner. Time flies when you are having fun :)

After dinner, the kids decided to make us bead bracelets to match theirs.

We are now all in possession of matching bead bracelets. Hurray!
