6/30/13: It is our niece Kaylan's 6th birthday today so we spent most of the day doing fun birthday stuff with Derek's family. S&Z enjoyed some good play time at home before the festivities began, though. In this picture they are pretending to sleep because all of their animals were sleeping too.
After lunch at Chipotle it was off to Build-a-Bear Workshop!
We've never been there before so it was fun to see how it all works! First you have to select your bear,
Then it's time to fill the bear,
But first you have to get the heart of the bear started up and filled with love.
Silas picked out a white bear and Zoe picked out a black bear, while Kaylan picked a rabbit.
After the bear is filled it's time to give him/her a bath and brush its fur. You also complete a birth certificate for the bear - Silas named his bear Oscar and Zoe named her bear Sophie.
After Build-a-Bear we stopped at a photo booth for the cousins to take pictures together. It was S&Z's first time in a photo booth so the pix turned out pretty funny!
Next we headed to Great-Grandpa's house for cake with the rest of the family. Kaylan got a sprinkler for her birthday. We didn't have any suits for S&Z so they cooled off in their skivies!
Another day of no naps made for a couple of tired kiddos.
Uncle Doug and Derek had the frisbee out and Zoe was very excited to learn how to play. She was pretty good, too!
Derek's cousin, Melissa, has been visiting for a few days from Iowa. She flew with Grandpa back to MA so we were excited to spend some time with her before she goes home tomorrow.
Of course there was lots of cake to celebrate the birthday girl!
Happy 6th Birthday, Kaylan!!!!
