Bookworm Gardens

We took a trip to Bookworm Gardens today in Sheboygan. It was our first time there but not our last. We had a great time running around the different storybook gardens.



I forget which story this dog was from something about a "dirty dog". This was Ian's favorite part of the trip....giving the dog a bath.

We discovered the houses from the Three Little Pigs story.

What's next?

Happy girl

Just fits

Cheese!

The three bears are looking for their chairs from the Goldilocks story.
Here come the bears!
Such a fun time. Can't wait to go back.

Adam's 6th Birthday party with his friends

Adam had his first "friend only" party today. His Birthday is not until June 21st but this was the weekend that worked out for the party.

We had 12 friends over today and I think everyone had a great time.



We are ready to party! Ian was still sleeping when this photo was taken. Time to wake up Bubbers!

Sitting down and getting ready for some snacks










Now that is quite a tower!


Next up was a game we called "Lego Collaboration". Everyone got to pick out a bag containing a random number of Legos. Each kid took a turn adding their Legos to the team project.


Working hard on their "Lego City"








Almost done!


Finished!!


Lego City is complete!


Time for presents.




Happy Birthday to Adam!


Thank you to all of Adam's great friends for making this such a fun party!


The guests were gone but Adam was still so happy after his party. Happy Birthday to our sweet 6 year old!
