Popsicle Rules & Giveaway

photo 4

Evan and Cayce have LOVED going through the Popsicle “rule” book and trying to toe the line and keep the rules. A few weeks ago I surprised them by showing up at his house and taking them out. The weather was beautiful for a little lunch on the dock at a nearby restaurant. So, off we went…Evan, his mom Cayce, his Bubby Shelley and me…Aunt Zippy for a day of fun. It was at THAT point that I learned….

EVAN’S RULE OF THE DAY WAS

The MORE laughing rule…

And THIS rule is not JUST for kids, it’s also a great rule for the adults as well!

Over lunch, Evan treated us to just HOW he was going to get us all laughing, and laughing some more.  No this was NOT peek-a-boo, but rather a joke played on his unsuspecting mom and Aunt Zippy. He was so QUICK with the napkin, that each time I tried to take a picture of him, the napkin went up and we ALL broke into laughter. His hands were quicker than my shutter, and with each click the laughter grew louder and harder, until we couldn’t stop.

I even caught Evan himself laughing right along with us!
