Happy Birthday, Dada!

This past weekend was quite a festive one with a kid's birthday party Saturday morning, a friend's BBQ on Saturday night and daddy/Jeremy's birthday on Sunday! Of course, Molly was most excited about dada's birthday!

Dada's birthday started off with a yummy breakfast at Katalina's Cafe.
Afterwards we headed to the topiary park in downtown Columbus. The park is a topiary interpretation of George Seurat’s famous painting A Sunday Afternoon on the Isle of La Grande Jatte. Some of you (like me!) might know this painting best as the painting in Ferris' Bueller's Day Off that Cameron stared into at the Art Institute. It was a pretty cool little park, actually! Here are a few pictures. Hopefully you can see some of the topiaries in the background.


After the topiary park, it was off to the water fountain park in the heart of downtown Columbus along the Scoito River walk. Molly had a blast! We didn't come totally prepared, i.e. we didn't have her bathing suit & it was still a little cool, so she only lasted about 15 minutes or so before she started to get cold. But she loved it! Can't wait to go back. Here are a few pictures & a little video clip.




We ended the day with some Jeni's ice cream. Who needs birthday cake when you can get cantaloupe ice cream! While it didn't compare with daddy's homemade cantaloupe milkshakes, it was still pretty good. Overall, hopefully a good birthday celebration for dada!
