Fun with the Children - Playground and Lunch

Kit had a good idea on this day, May 27th, for us to take
Addi and Maddox to a different playground, that we'd
been to already with Jenny. We wanted to give Jenny
and Matt a little quiet time. They still had Cyrus to take
care of, but the care for a newborn is much different than
caring for a 3 and 4 year old!

Here's the train at the park and you can see that Kit enjoyed
riding it as much as the children did!

Maddox questioning Grandad about something!
Our precious blonde hair/blue-eyed little boy! And he is
definitely all boy! Rough, tubble and brave! He reminds
us of Uncle Adam so much!
Our precious Addi, engineering the train!
We love our only grandaughter! She's so easy to love and
gives that love back quite often with hugs.
Gran pushed the camera into Grandad's hands to get some
shots with Maddox. I'm rarely in any of our pictures.
Maddox and Gran...my oldest grandson! Love that I have
two more precious grandsons! I miss Turner so much.
Addi and Gran

Addi loves to take pictures! She took this one of Maddox
sliding down the slide. Pretty good for a 4 yr. old!
Addi took this picture also of Gran and Grandad.

For lunch, we ate at a nearby cafe and had pida, pronounced
pee-day. The bread and cheeses here are wonderful. This
dish is similar to pizza. We all enjoyed our lunch after playing
at the playground.
Addi ate all of her pida, leaving only some of the crust!
Grandad is studying the menu, although he doesn't read
Turkish!! He looked at the pictures and that helped!
Here we are enjoying time with Cyrus. He is sporting his
first pair of shorts, much too big, but fit okay with his big
cloth diaper on. He's so cute!

Look at that sweet face!

Eyes bright and open, observing all around him!

This evening after dinner, we took a taxi to Coffee World,
a coffee/dessert shop featuring all kinds of chocolate
candies and desserts! Here Addi is showing us her chocolate
hippo. It is similar to those chocolate Easter bunnies that
you see every spring.

Maddox enjoyed his chocolate hippo too along with other
candies that were given to us.

My dessert, chocolate brownie with chocolate sauce and
vanilla ice cream. Mmmmmm!
Matt enjoyed an expresso. Cyrus enjoyed his Mom's
chocolate cheesecake later during the night. :-)

Addi enjoying her chocolate!

Kit enjoyed his brownie and ice cream too!

Here is one of the chocolates, like a truffle, that we enjoyed.
Mary Ann had her fill of rich chocolate for that night!
