Daddy's first music class!

Today Daddy was able to come to his first music class.It was nice for me because I had another set of hands to help-- and to take pictures :)Libs was in rare form today. Even Miss Moira commented on how much Libi loved having her Daddy in class.This was a special summer camp class which was farm themed. We drove to the farm and listened for animals along the way.We did a fun song where parents were supposed to lift their children in the air-- here's Daddy being a show-off!Perhaps Ron's favorite part of the class was dancing around like the wind with the scarves. The kids stayed on the floor and we blew around them. To ensure my husband will consider coming to classes in the future no pictures of the dancing were taken ;)We got to do a craft as well.
This was my favorite part of the class because I got to simply do the craft with Libs. I didn't have to try to juggle crafting and photography at the same time-- thank you Ron!The craft was a hand-print chicken. Libi is finally over the hand print phobia. In fact she wanted to stick her hands in the ink over and over again!Libi really decorated her chicken-- lots and lots of feathers!Here is the masterpiece! I love the legs off to the side and the low beak-- very Picasso-ish.During exploration time Libs really enjoyed the parachute. Such a happy girl to share her love of music with her Daddy!In the evening we went to the park for a Pioneer Club guide picnic. Libs is still trying to climb things.
She is also still into collecting leaves-- not sure what the fascination is but she carries them all over.She was very much in her own world when this picture was taken. She kept saying, "Tinkerbell in Pixie Hollow" and "Where dreams come true!" Not sure what was going on in her mind but it was fun to watch.We are all loving having Ron home so much. I love the bond these two have-- Libs is definitely Daddy's little girl. The picnic was full of food, friends and games. This particular game Libi got roped into playing. You are supposed to take bean bags and place them into another persons bucket-- the person having the most in the end loses. My darling little girl didn't understand that concept so she grabbed every bean bag she could find and kept stuffing them in her bucket. The game came to a screeching hault because nobody knew where all the bean bags were-- Yup, Miss Libs had then ALL!!They had Icee pops at the picnic and Libs had to have one. Of course she selected the blue one which would make the most mess.Note the blue mouth which stayed with her well into the next morning.She was quite sporty tonight-- trying to play with a ball...and a badminton racquet. Ron and I tried out our badminton skills and we had a blast. I think our next backyard investment will be some raquets and shuttlecocks.
