A Birthday Party & Cake Pops






Had a great time celebrating our friend, Gracie's 1st Birthday. Such great company and a smily birthday girl she was! And Henry and I gave a first go at making cake pops. I think they turned out pretty great if I do say so myself. He had a great time helping and was begging to turn around and make more the next day, ha!

While the dad was away, we did play



While dad was at CX Nationals this weekend kicking butt and taking names, I thought to try out this indoor playground I'd heard great things about. The kids had a great time! A few of the slides were too big for Miles to venture up by himself, but he quickly found ones he was comfortable with and went on them over and over. We had a great time and was a good place to burn some energy. Henry did a great job encouraging Miles when he needed it and also gave his bum a little boost in the jungle gym to help him climb. Notice in the video how Miles goes right up the slide again, not wasting a bit of time. He loved it.

Alpaca Hat


Here is Henry showing us the alpaca hat his teacher brought back for all the kids from her trip to Peru over the holiday. Its the softest hat ever and so colorful. Both boys really love them. We googled Alpaca together so I could show them some pictures and give them a little more info on where they live and what they do in Peru and how important they are to their people.
