OH Times...

Saturday, June 30th

We started the day off with exercise all around :). The kids participated in a 400 meter run (once around the track) and afterwards, G and I ran the Celebrate Poland 5k...

D stretching :)

Lining up for their first race ever!

Carefully discussing strategy ;).

GO!

D sprinted around like a champ and P got a little upset that he was so far in front of her. So, I rescued her and we 'ran' it in together lol ♥.

G and I ready to roll! How fun was a 5k at such a lower altitude?! I even passed some high school boys lol \o/! Of course, I still didn't pass my hubby.

While we were running, the kids explored a Touch-a-Truck that was set-up right next door.



There were also bounce houses to be played in and on!



Don't think I let the kids have all the fun :).

Then, it was off to our favorite local haunt, Quaker Steak and Lube for wings and beer!

We thought we had a pretty sweet seat :).

Of course the kids had to test out the bar stools lol.

Silly Grandpa and P! Sharing a Twizzler, Lady and the Tramp style :).

Kissy Lips P :).

Getting ready for the fireworks! P was exhausted, in fact, she actually fell asleep amidst all the chaos and noise ♥. She did eventually wake up.

P playing with her cool light-'saver'.

D firework watching.

Me trying to get some firework pictures lol.

More light-'saver' playing.

Tickles with Uncle C :).




Sunday, July 1st

In preparation for the big party, we spent most of the morning getting things ready and/or kid-watching.

Uncle C donned the pink boa, which of course I had to document ;).

I seeeeeee you :).

He didn't get to keep it for long though ♥.

Their backyard was beautiful all decked out and ready to party!

They even brought in a local BBQ smoker/grill, right into their backyard!


Guests came in the early afternoon and stayed through evening-time. It was such fun to see everyone again and have a chance to catch up.









The next several pictures are a little out of order as they all happened pre-party, but it was too much work to rename and move around lol. So...

Eating ice-cream with Grandma :).

Bounce House fun!







Now we are back on track with the party pics :).














We are so lucky to have such great parents! Thank you for such a wonderful party!
