friday morning was a trip to gymnastics for open gym time. lots to do for this energetic bunch: a huge foam pit to jump in, zip line, trampolines, slides and a rope swing.
that night it was off to shawnee mission park for a kids concert featuring local favorite jim cosgrove and trout fishing in america. it was like a little greatful dead show for kids complete with balloon animals, glow sticks, air filled slides and bouncers and good music to boogie to with friends and grandma and grandpa!
that night we headed to my aunt and uncle's farm. i absolutely love it there! there is always plenty of food, lots of laughs and a big bon fire to make s'mores. it is so peaceful there. the kids love the horses, cows and the freedom of wandering around, digging in the dirt and swinging way after dark.
some of my favorite childhood memories are of times i spent there with my cousins. we would go on four wheeling adventures taking along our lunches and building forts out by the ponds. we would spend the whole day out exploring all of their land until my aunt would ring the bell to call us back in. this city girl even flung a few cow pies!
saturday was a friends carnival birthday party. it was so cute and very creative. a ticket booth made from a refrigerator box and tons of games including a duck pond, ring toss, bean bag toss, lollipop tree, fishing and bowling. and of course popcorn, cotton candy, face painting and a neighbor boy to put on a juggling show!

and off again to another birthday. this time a karate party which was a great idea!
now i'm off to bed-i'm exhausted! did i mention clay was in south dakota at a golf tournament this weekend?
