More Birthday Details

By Amy

After opening presents on the boys' birthday, we headed to the "lake park." The boys requested to spend their birthday there. This park is fun for several reasons:

a.) we have a membership to all the parks in the city, so it's free to get in.

b.) it has fun carnival rides for the kids to enjoy for a minimal fee.

c.) it has grass!! that's a rare find in our concrete city.

d.) it has a lake, which is a great place to practice your sling-shot skills.


So, I packed up a picnic lunch and we headed off to the park! After slinging a thousand rocks into the lake, riding some fun rides, and playing on a jungle gym, we ate a yummy lunch complete with tootsie pops! (Thanks Grandma!) Then, we explored a bit and headed home for some cake and ice cream. It was a fun-filled morning! After naps, we spent the evening playing with new toys, eating volcanoes (a taco-salad type thing that my kids all LOVE!) and leftover cake, and packing up for our vacation! More vacation details to come....
(I had a few more pics to upload, but blogger is rejecting them....sorry!)
