Family Fun Day

There is a fun festival going on right now, and as part of it, our botanical gardens hosted "Family Fun Day" for the kids. Laura and I took our kids and Rachel hung out with us too :) We had a great time-but it was really hot! Here are some of the fun things the kids got to do while we were there.
The kids were so excited about the balloon animals-last year we stood in line forever, and then they cut it off, so we never got one. :( Not this year! :)

James and Aiden both got dogs on a stick-James has "Clifford" and Aiden has "Blue's Clues" and Ally got a butterfly on a stick-which she loved to feed by putting it up to the trees to eat

These were fun for the kids-but they kept going in circles because the boys couldn't coordinate their wheels the same way


The kids were able to sit in a fire truck-which was cool for them

And then they got to help spray the fire hose!

Aiden had his "characature" done. I'm sad I didn't get a picture of the artist drawing it, but I was helping to keep him distracted and faced the right way. I think it turned out cute :) And don't tell me that's not Aunty Lauren's nose! haha
