 What a great family portrait! Missing Krystol, but Peanut is a new addition. |
 The girls come to visit a few days before the Party to pick out new bikes. Now they can bike the trails with Mom and Dad. |
 Wow! Big water slide this year. John fills it with water to be ready for the onslaught. |
|
Lillian and friend Avery check out the bouncy house which turns out to be a somewhat quiet place to play! |
 Grandpa Keith gets into a 'monster water war' with everyone. He finally dried out before leaving. |
The waterslide gets hard use and only 2
guests sliding completely out onto the soft, muddy grass. No harm. Click pic for movie! |
 Zip line is much improved this year. Off the chimney to across the pond. But never more than 4 feet off the ground. |
 It goes even faster if Daddy gives you a push. |
Just about time for cake. Star wars theme this year mixed with horsy plates. |
 Always a lot of helpers for the cake ceremony. |
 A once a year wish. |
 Sugar high after cake necessitates a conga line around the party. |
Tractor rides - a long standing tradition. |
 The zipline also functions as a Piņata rope holder. |
 Next door neighbor, Skyler, gets an early introduction to fun birthday parties. |
 As the sun fades, just one more trip down the (now dry) slide with Mommy. |
 Wait - there's more! Hunting (trap and release) frogs in the pond. Long day. |
