First of all, we got up and went to church. We rushed home after church so we could have a quick lunch before Alex I headed out to the garden walk which started at noon.
It's funny... it always ends up being me and the boy. Clara really has no interest, but the boy loves it. We couldn't wander far from the house this year because we needed to leave by 1:30 to go to a birthday party and unfortunately, not many houses around us participated this year.
We did stop at our favorite house to see the train...
I took one other photo the entire time...
I think we only managed to make it to about 5-6 houses before heading home.We jumped in the car with Jeff and Clara to head to their friend's birthday party.
It was a good old fashioned party in the park!
They had three-legged races...
(not the best idea for our two to be partners... but they survived)Sack races...
(that's the birthday girl on the left)And egg and spoon races....
There was also a pinata....
It was a great party! The weather was PERFECT.... cool and overcast which meant the kids could run and run without overheating. They just kept playing and play... we finally had to drag them away about an hour after the party was scheduled to end. The kids loved the party so much that they have requested summer birthdays so they can have the same type of party :-)After that we stopped for dinner on the way home. While there I got a message from the mom of one of Alex's friends wanting to know if Alex could come over for a playdate. We took him over there as soon as we got home and picked him up at 9:30. Needless to say, he was EXHAUSTED and fell asleep while reading in bed with the lights on!
We have another busy day today.... not sure if there will be any photo ops... but there might be!
