Happy Birthday to Da

Last Thursday was Da's birthday.  We celebrated by going to Birch Run and Frankenmuth.  We didn't last long at Birch Run because the kids were too bad.  The only store they liked was Stride Rite, where Anna was in heaven around all the shoes.  Frankenmuth was a hit though.  They both liked all the food.  Especially Lukey.  He also was really good at going for a long trip like that with using the potty every time he had to go pee.  After that we came home and I made a carrot cake for Da.  Overall, it was a pretty good day!  Happy Birthday to Da.

The kids wanted to go for a walk and run around in the fields together after a big lunch.  (and mommy and da wanted to go for a walk after sharing a pitcher of beer at lunch).

Playing ring around the rosie.  This is one of their favorite games to play together.  Yesterday we discovered that another favorite game of theirs is to do somersaults into each other.  Lukey just recently has been able to do somersaults by himself.  Then Anna figured it out too!  She's an advanced gymnast.

Anna started to have more interest in playing with sticks than anything else.

We bought Lukey some bird food for him to feed the peacocks and whatever other birds were in this pen.  After realizing that the birds didn't really care about the bird food he tried to put it back.

This deer was in our neighbors backyard yesterday.  I took a picture of him through the screen so it came out really light and blurry. So, I just kept photo editing for fun.
