Avrie's First Birthday

After the zoo, we rushed over to Peoria for the party. Avrie turned one and we were happy to help celebrate at the park.


First, we had lunch; then all the kids ran over to the playground. Karter has come to love slides. Meanwhile, Kimble was having a great time chilling inside a hippo. Soon it was time to head back for the pinata. The kids just had to take a detour up and over a hill, as most kids would. But they couldn't just run down the hill, they had to roll down. The result, picking grass out of Kimble's hair like a monkey.





The "special guest" arrived as we finished up the pinata fun... it was Mother Goose. She was awesome! First she did face painting (or arm painting for most of the kids). Kimble got a horse, of course, and Karter got a star on his arm. Then, she told nursery rhymes, performed magic tricks, had an Old MacDonald puppet show (Kimble was the horse), had us all march in a birthday parade and the big finale, balloon animals. Can you guess what Kimble requested? Yep, a horse. Karter got an orange dog with a long tail.





What a fun party... what a busy day.
