Extending the birthday celebration

Finally I'm posting some photos from Henry and Elliot's weeks long birthday celebration.   The birthday began with a huge pool party with all of Henry's and Elliot's friends.  Thank you to their school for organizing the end of the year party for the Friday before his birthday.  I snagged one photo of Elliot and his teachers.

On Henry's actual birthday on Saturday we had the boys' friend spend the afternoon with us.  They hunted for roll-polliess under the bricks at the fire pit and then played at the park down the street.

The Friday before Henry's (Saturday) birthday we went to Brusters ice cream.  They loved the experience so much that we took Gamps back for another birthday celebration at the ice cream shop on Sunday.

We spent a morning at a bounce house for some of our friends who turned 3 a few days after Henry turned 4.

Gamps and Charlotte came over for a shared birthday celebration complete with tons of presents

And my first attempt at a fun cake: 2 layer yellow cake with chocolate icing and strawberries (from our strawberry picking adventure) all throughout

One morning in the middle of all of this, I found Henry and Elliot singing Let it Go at the top of their lungs on their make-shift stage

 We spent an afternoon at the splash pad and rode bikes for a little while to build up a sweat before getting wet.

 And rode bikes a little in Lullwater where we were able to see our goslings (the ones we saw as sweet little one on Mother's day)

 And spent a relaxed moment blowing bubbles, as they love to do.

On Memorial weekend we hosted a birthday party complete with a slip n' slide thing

and a dinosaur piñata that took the gang of six kids 4 rounds to bust it

With all the fun that began and continued since a few days before Henry's 4th birthday, they were tuckered out by the time Elliot's 2nd birthday came around 2 weeks later.
