Daddy- Daughter Date

(off to the show)

This morning Christian took Beatrix to Children's Day at the Park, to see The Biscuit Brothers.

After enjoying the show they shared a stroll under the bridge and on the river bank - Lemonade Trail.
Beatrix bought daddy a lemonade with her very own money from the purse she carried the entire time... all by her self.

Determined, as always, she wanted to meet The B.B.'s and bypassed the long line to the front, waved, and then said"hi"! (her mother's child)

I think they had a good time, it's sweet they were able to have this one on one time together. This was the last event of the summer like this and I hope to go to more next summer.
