Ice Cream

Part of the fun of summer is going out for ice cream as a family. (Right!?) We found the cutest little ice cream shop near us that serves soft serve ice cream at a VERY nice and cheap price (and it tastes great!) It also has a little side porch with a swing, a tiny plastic picnic table for tiny ice-cream eaters, and even more adorable-a tiny wooden blue picnic table with an umbrella! There was a nice grassy area behind the shop where families and kids could run around and play. Some boys from a sports team were there (which made sense when we saw the sign about "Coaches Special"- a discount when you bring your team in uniform!) and they were climbing trees. Hilariously, Josiah reports, "Mom- that kid is climbing that tree, that's dangerous!" Michael and I looked at him wondering, "where did he hear that?" and about 30 seconds later a kid falls out of the tree and lands on another little kid... yikes. Guess Josiah has a special gift of wisdom. ha ha

But besides all that- it is just a precious place! Here are some pictures from our little trip out there last week. Since Josiah got "ice cream money" for his birthday, I think we'll be making many more trips to this great little place over the summer!
