It was a pretty day so we spent a lot of time playing in the backyard. Mary collected lots and lots of leaves.
The boys played Frisbee
and foursquare.
Aren't these pictures sweet of Pop brushing Mary's hair?
Nana had some fun party games planned for the cousins.
All the kids had cups tied to their shoes; Nana filled the cups with popcorn and then the kids had to walk across the grass to the finish line and dump the popcorn into coffee tins. They repeated this several times and it was a lot of fun!
The prize was eating the popcorn at the end!
Next up was Hot Potato.
For the next game, the kids had balloons strapped to their legs and the goal was to not let your balloon pop!
Henry stomped on Michael's balloon right away.
Will was the winner and his balloon proved nearly indestructible.
The final game was a version of twister. Everyone got tangled up and had to untwist the knot.
Michael just thought the cones were the best toys ever.
And little David just relaxed and watched the fun!
We all enjoyed Jess's famous turkey soup for dinner followed by lemon cake for Mary's 6th birthday!
I love this picture because Mary is telling Nana how big to cut her slice of cake.
It was a huge slice!
Happy birthday, Mary! We love watching you grow!
