Berry Patch Farms

Today we went to a local farm with our friends, the Rabes.
Jennie and Hank were ready to meet the animals!
The resident goat eagerly greeted Jennie.
Hank got to touch the farm's very well fed pig.
We met a turkey . . .
and a rooster with feathers on its legs!
We even took a family picture surrounded by Mommy's favorite-sunflowers!
Before our visit to the farm ended, Hank enjoyed walking through the fields.
Maybe next year, when Hank and Jennie are bigger, we'll actually pick berries!

Cousin's Play Date at Scott Carpenter Park

Today was all about fun with Hank's cousins in Boulder!
Hank loved swinging with Ryder, and Sierra did a great job of pushing both boys.
Hank also held his own as he enjoyed climbing around the playground equipment with Sierra.
After a snack, Hank and Ryder took a stroll before calling it a day.
What a great way to start our Saturday!

WOW Children's Museum

We are lucky to live just minutes away from the World of Wonders Children's Museum. There was so much to explore, but here are some highlights of Hank's first visit, starting with the trains!
Hank liked helping Daddy build a Lego house.
Then it was off to compose some music on the piano.
Looks like we'll be coming back again and again . . .
Wahoo! Nothing like discovering new kid friendly activities in our neighborhood.

The Winakers Come to Colorado

Guess who came to visit all the way from Delaware? Yep, it's Uncle Jeremy, Aunt Ali and Cousins Sophie and Max!
On the first day of visiting, we all went to the WOW Children's Museum right here in Lafayette. Hank snuggled with his Uncle Jeremy.
Hank got a case of the giggles in his Aunt Ali's arms, too.
Can't forget to play "airplane!"
That night, we all went out to dinner to help Max celebrate his 4th Birthday. Happy Birthday, Max!!
It was a great evening out altogether.
The next day we finished our visit with a day on Pearl Street in Boulder.
Thanks for such a special couple of days. We love you!!

Sierra's Birthday

Today Hank got to help his Cousin Sierra celebrate her sixth birthday at The Little Gym.
He loved all the activities, starting with the balance beam.
Then the girls crawled after Hank all over the mats.
After a quick photo break with Grandpa Eli and Daddy, Hank was ready for more action.
Nothing like getting on the jumping mat with the big kids!
Happy Birthday, Sierra!
Hank had a blast!
