Weekend wrap-up...a few days late

Saturday morning, we loaded up the van and headed to Springridge farm.  We were going there to celebrate our friend Allie's birthday.  As we drove there, the clouds rolled in and it started to rain.  We unloaded the kids and gathered underneath a shelter with the rest of our friends/party guests.  As soon as we got settled under the shelter, mother nature unleashed all her fury.....and she was PISSED off!  It was a pretty scary storm.  Water was pouring down the hill on either side of us, lightening and thunder struck every few minutes......and the power went off for a few minutes in the store.

Because of the storm, we weren't able to go and ride the ride-on toys or play in the sand box.  The party planner took us to the back of the main barn, as soon as the rain died down a bit.  Once there, we decorated a basket and painted a pot.  We had a yummy pizza lunch and cupcakes for dessert....delicious!  After lunch, we were taken out to the chicken coop where each child picked an egg out.  Both boys were thrilled to find their egg.

Happy birthday, Allie!

It was a great party, the boys are still talking about it!

After the party, we headed straight to the cottage.  The weather cleared up, and we had a wonderful afternoon/evening.  The newest owners to our cottage condo were up for the weekend, and they have 4 boys between the ages of 2-8!  Drew was sooo excited to have some new friends to play with.

It was a great weekend...the pictures say it all!
