Grandpa Jim came up to help Tim with a house project on Saturday, and brought some cake along for a little pre-birthday celebration. The girls played a game with him and were happy for him to read them their bedtime stories. Tim and I were happy he was able to help get the project done!
Julia had a birthday party with some of her little friends on Sunday. She wanted some balloons around the place for decoration. Kayla and Julia both helped to get set up for the party.
Julia was a bit shy about blowing out her birthday candles, but Kayla helped her out and the cake and ice cream eating began.
The kids all had fun playing with toys, stringing pasta necklaces, making collages and playing with the balloons.
After the party we went to our park with a couple of our friends. Our park has been flooded a lot lately with all the rain we have been having. The water around the merry go round was quite deep, but the kids still had a great time getting all wet. Well, it was fun until they started getting cold. Lucky we live close by.
