Gay wasn't feeling well today, and I needed to be in the office, Elsa had to work, and Daddy was in Chicago, so Lizzy spent the day with me at the office! We had a really fun day. She went to a meeting with me, we had lunch today (and ice cream and games in the break room at work), and she spent the afternoon building cup towers, playing with markers, and laying on 150 stress balls.

She was certainly excited to finish her preschool career. We let her open her graduation gift before we left for the ceremony. She loved her Zen Board!

Winston had some eyelid surgery today, and Lizzy was very involved in giving him lots of love in his recovery!

Today a switch was somehow flipped, and Lizzy went from hesitating about putting her face in the water to full-on, swimming underwater like a fish, touching the bottom, doing flips and underwater handstands. Hooray!

One on one swim lessons were great. She picked back up right where she left off a year ago with lessons, and is much further along on her confidence now that she's an underwater swimmer!

We arrived at our hotel a little after 2:00, and we spent the next few hours playing dominoes and taking a fun playtime bath. We then got dressed really nicely for the evening.
Along with the Lewises, we headed to downtown Dayton. We walked past the theater where the Lion King would be that evening, en rouge to dinner at Pizzeria Uno. The kiddos got to make their own pizzas at the table, and then the server took them back to the kitchen to bake. How fun!
After dinner, we walked back across the street to the theater to get ready for the show. As always, the Lion King is a wonderful show. We thoroughly enjoyed ourselves.

Air Show Day! After hotel breakfast, we made the brief drive over to the Dayton Airport for the show. We started the day with a wristband for unlimited bouncing in the bounce houses.

We then procured a blue slushie to enjoy once we got to our table. Our table, with umbrella, provided perfect shade and we had a delightful breeze all day, which kept us cool and comfortable.
In the afternoon, we took the kiddos to the kids area. There, Lizzy got her face painted, and got to meet one of the Navy Leap Frogs! The Leap Frog she met had been her favorite one during their performance - the one with colored jets of smoke on his feet.
After the air show, we stayed behind for a long while to bounce in the bounce houses until they deflated them, look at the aircraft, and get soaked by a fire truck on the walk out!
Lizzy fell asleep in the car on the way back to the hotel, so we let her sleep for awhile. For dinner, we found a fantastic BBQ place, and all had a great meal together!

Lizzy's day started with swim class in the morning. She's continuing to do so well at swimming. In the afternoon, she and I took a long nap in preparation for that night's fun events. After dinner, we arrived at the Fairgrounds ready to participate in the Foam Glow pre-party. There was so much foam, and as you can see, she didn't hesitate to get in and have some fun!
She has some serious dance moves!

After the pre-party, it was time for the 5K, in the dark. We had so much fun! They had foam stations set up along the course, and we were all covered.
After we were done, Liz and Dad hopped into the post-party for a bit, but it was getting muddy from all the foam so we headed home.
We were all a vivid, shocking shade of pink, so there we were, at 12:30 in the morning, taking a bath. Check out the bath water.

We had the most wonderful time at the 2016 NFL Mascot Summit charity football game. Lizzy got to meet 13 different mascots, and get autographs from 9 of them. She was OVER THE MOON! Her favorites were Chomps (Cleveland Browns), Blue (of course), and her new favorite is Sir Purr from the Carolina Panthers. He has a little squeaker in his glove, and when he gave her a hug he squeaked her tummy, which she loved. She was smiling ear to ear the ENTIRE EVENING! So much fun. We hope we have a chance to do this again next time the mascot summit is in town!
She met Matt Overton and Henry Anderson from the Colts. We told them how this will be her third season as a season ticket holder. Matt asked her what her favorite part of coming to the game is. She said "Getting snacks."
Silly girl!

Lizzy had chosen 5 countries to cheer for in the upcoming Olympics: US, UK, Germany, Jamaica, and Australia. We colored flags of these nations to hang up as a decoration over our TV. She asked me where was the flag for Burkina Faso, as she wanted to cheer for them as well. Ha!

After getting settled in our room, we walked around to get the lay of the land, then got changed to swim for about an hour at their indoor water park. We came back to the room to get cleaned up and then have some down time prior to the wedding, which was spent trying to find the big animals throughout!
The wedding itself was beautiful (Lizzy loves weddings), and the reception was such fun. She danced for HOURS.

Check-out time came quickly, and she had to say goodbye by jumping on the beds and hugging the animals goodbye.
On the way home, we stopped at the outlet mall and completed ALL of her new clothes shopping for school in 2 stores. Success!

Gay and Ed brought Lizzy home, we changed, and then went to a friend's 4th birthday party nearby, where she played games and met Doc McStuffins.
Afterwards, we went downtown to the Canal for a nice dinner and a fun Pokewalk, where we got so many new Pokemon! She was pretty excited.

Lizzy had her first Junior Chemical Engineering class this evening. When I picked her up, she came running out the doors yelling "We got to do SCIENCE!" She was beyond excited. They made their own bubble mixture, and she really enjoyed getting to measure everything precisely and mix it all together.
After class, we came home to play outside. She was playing on the back patio, and wanted to paint, but all I had was watercolors. I suggested she put an entire watercolor disc into water to paint with one color (since that's all she had requested.) She replied "I'm not going to dissolve that entire thing in water." I had to smile - she really is learning lots of science vocabulary somewhere!
Before bed, Lizzy was unintentionally mixing up Mt. Everest and Antarctica, and laughed so hard she started crying.She exclaimed "I'm dripping tears!"

We got to meet some really nice cheerleaders, and then Laura Steele was kind enough to interview us, and she spent about 20 minutes talking to us. She loved that Lizzy, at 5, is going on her 3rd season as a season ticket holder!

As always, here's the growing collage of Lizzy and Daddy together at Oktoberfest through the years.
In the evening, we went back so Lizzy and I could enter the German outfit contest. While we lost to a dog in lederhosen, she still won a gift card to Cold Stone, so she was pretty excited about that!
While there, we saw a hot air balloon being inflated. On a whim, we took a little hot air balloon ride! It was brief, and the only thing she did not like was how loud it was when the fire would blast. The photo below of her, while it may look like she was not enjoying herself, was the only photo I had time to get, which I unfortunately mis-timed when I had let go of her ears to try to get a picture, and she was not liking the noise. Otherwise, she loved the experience, and is looking forward to a real hot air balloon ride (hopefully) next year on our trip.

As a baby, Lizzy never had a special stuffed animal or blankie that she had to sleep with or take everywhere. That all changed on her first day of school, when Daddy gifted her with a stuffed Pikachu. This Pikachu now goes everywhere with her - to bed, to school in her backpack, to the store - EVERYWHERE. It has been accomplanied for the past few weeks as well by a small pink stuffed Mew.
I realized shortly before bedtime that these two stuffed toys didn't make it home from Aftercare in her backpack, and she would be going to sleep without them. I needed to tell her before bed so we could get the panic over with. I told her that Mew and Pikachu were still at Little Explorers, and she immediately started to cry and told me "Call 911!" It was that much of an emergency.
We ended up leaving early the following morning to go retrieve them before school, so all was well. But I love how her initial response was to call the authorities. :o)
