JAKE IS EIGHT!!!!!

Saturday we had Jake's birthday party. We had a lady from Zooniversity come and show some animals and had a face painter as well. It was a really good time!!

All Jake's friends came to the farm for cake and fun!!

Grandpa's friend M-ARGH-ty came too. (I totally stole that from Kelly but it was just too good not to steal!!)

Spiderman made an apperance. We know Uncle Bradley was really jealous that he couldn't be here after seeing this shot of John! :)

Here's a shot of all the kids. The boys were too cool to get their faces painted but the girls LOVED it, as did some of the adults!

Here are Gwen, Riley, Lauren, and Emma. Some of the princesses in Jake's class.

Jake was not about to touch the hedgehog. For anyone looking for party ideas check out http://www.zooniversity.com/

They did a great job and the kids and grownups loved it!!

Lauren and Elise as a cat and dog. I thought the tongue really made the puppy!!

My little tiger!!! He kept this paint on from 10am on Saturday morning until about 7pm Sunday night. He loved being a tiger!!!

Horses and such....

We went to Layton and Lauren's birthday party on Sunday. It was at a local stable and Charlie rode a horse for the first time. He was so excited that he HAD to find his boots to wear. We actually had a birthday party directly afterward and Charlie had so much fun at the first one we didn't make it to the second. No energy left!! Also, no, I wasn't avoiding Jake, he was too cool to have his picture taken by his mom. Yes, we are there.

Here's Charlie with the goats. He wasn't too sure but warmed up to them with some prompting.

Charlie thought he was too cool!!

He had a blast. Poor girl leading him though, he never stopped talking.

Very excited!!
