5 on Friday

1. We celebrated Liam's birthday at his construction party!   We had a blast and I loved how my niece would let me take care of her--- until I took her cake away and then she yelled at me in a 1-year old way (in my defense, her mother told me I could take it away AND she was in the process of getting cleaned off).

2. We had a zoo day with the Jones' Family!   Megan and the kids had gone with the girls and I earlier in the summer, but we decided we needed to include the Daddy's this time around.   It rained, so the train was not running, but we still had a great time.

3. Indianola Balloon Classic!  I had never been, and the other day on our way to school Ellie asked what was in the sky in front of us--- it was a hot air balloon.   Since Ellie is still free admission for this one last year we thought it would be a fun thing to do.   Unfortunately, Neve decided she did not want to take a nap that day and given it was the Glow Nite so we would be up late  Neve and Daddy stayed home.   But Ellie, Megan, Liam and I had an amazing time!   I would totally go again next year (this time with Neve and Daddy as well.)

4. We had our kindergarten round-up at Maple Grove on Thursday!   Can you believe Ellie will start kindergarten in less than a month!  Yikes!

5. While we were at kindergarten round-up, Neve had a play-date with her friend, Bentley.  She had a blast and I am so grateful our friends were able to watch her when I asked.   The next day Neve asked when she could play with Bentley again.
