Mother's Tea

On Friday in Michael's class they put together a Mother's tea.  Michael asked me to stay for the whole class and volunteer.  It was fun, the kids had show and share and then played in centers for a little while.  Michael LOVES the block area.  That is usually where he goes if he gets chosen first.  There is a limit on how many kids can be in each center.

 

Here is his car that he made.

 

His classmate made a couple of ramps and Michael's car worked really well on it - it is nice that they  play so well together.

 

The boys made bow ties to wear for the tea party, it was so cute!!!

 

Michael enjoying his treats at the tea.  The girls made hats to wear and those were cute also!! They also made a card for each of their moms that was a teapot.  Michael made mine with glitter and wrote it all by himself!!

 

After school Michael's friend invited us to go try out a new park, one that they really love!!!  It is a really, really cool park!!!  One that I added to my favorites on the GPS.

 

This is part of a big ship that has a sand pit inside it.

 

They had a climbing rock there which it took all of 10 seconds for Michael to find.  :-)  He is my climber!! 

 

This was fun toy and it spun around really fast!!

 

They had a zip line there too!!  Michael was a little hesitant the first time because the one in Ireland went really fast, especially when AJ pushed him.

 

But then he found out it was a little slower and wanted Mommy to push him faster and wouldn't get off of it!  He LOVED it!!!

 

They also had a basketball/soccer area.  The hoops are regulation so Michael couldn't make it in, but it didn't stop us having fun!

 

Here was another one of the toys there, Michael has a bucket that he used to make a sand castle on the wood.  This park had so many different things that we didn't even use everything there.  Good excuse to go back!!  AJ heard about it and wanted to go soon.

 

There was also ducks there, so of course we had to feed the ducks

 

there were baby ducks there too, they were really cute!!!

 

On Saturday the boys had baseball games.  Michael's game went great!!  It was windy and a little cold, but the kids were nice and warm and had a great time.  During AJ's game I was really glad I brought an umbrella because it poured down rain for about 5-10 minutes, I mean a downpour.  Luckily AJ's team was up to bat and he had just made it home so he was able to stand under the umbrella and not get completely wet.  But AJ did great, had some fantastic hits!!  He is really getting good at batting.  Then we headed over to a friend's house for a great BBQ!!
