One of our favorite summer activities is walking to the Oak Park farmer's market to get fresh, hot donuts....and maybe some fruits and veggies, too. :-)
This year, we've only gone twice. The first time, it was almost noon and the donuts were long gone. So, we tried again yesterday. Still a little later starting out, 10 a.m., but did not anticipate any donut troubles.
Until we got there and the line was wrapped AROUND THE BLOCK. Which we've seen before and should have realized would be the case at that time of morning. However, we had already told the boys they were getting donuts...they were super excited / impatient and we thought standing in that line might be torture.
So, we walked on....to Dominick's...and enjoyed a box of tasty Entenmenn's donuts right there on their sidewalk. :-) I think the boys were just as happy!
Gabe even did a little donut dance (he was like, "Mommy, watch me!"):
Caleb loved his, too:
Things did get a little testy while waiting in the wagon after Gabe started picking at Caleb (notice Gabe got a left to the kisser):
They loved going under the el and yelling "HEWWWOOO!" to hear their echo:
It was still a lovely morning, great wagon ride and beautiful surroundings (here and there):

I love the story you tell with these pictures!! I love Gabe's donut dance!! Caleb looks like he is enjoying the donuts!! You are so creative with your pictures! The collages are awesome! Love, Ruth
What beautiful photos! I think it's adorable that Caleb is 'holding his own'. He is going to do just fine. :-) The boys sure do love their donuts! Looks like you had a gorgeous summer morning for your outing; not to mention that everything is in bloom. How beautiful! Thanks for sharing. Mom
These pictures are absolutely beautiful.
What a perfect Saturday! It looks like the boys were un-phased by the donut debacle. :-) The perfect morning!!
