Busy, busy, tired. Jimmy's party was a fantastic success! We had to move it from the fairgrounds (which was itself a last-minute change) to the bowling alley on account of unpredictable weather. Everybody had a great time, the cake was ugly but tasty - it's supposed to be a volcano - and the presents were appeasing to the birthday boy and the envy of all his friends. Thanks again, Lori, for the mustaches - they were the life of the party!
We've been getting outside as often as the weather permits. We took the kids out to the refuge last week and dinked around there. I got some great pix, the kids had a blast playing in and around the eagle's nest, and Jim read all of the info signs. We took the tour route back and saw a couple different big herds of deer, lots of geese, and a heron, but no eagles.
On Sunday we headed over to Montana for the day. Chris and I played disc golf in Troy, and then we visited the swinging bridge. Jimmy has pronounced it to be AWESOME! and was very disappointed when we had to leave. We promised to go back soon and spend the whole day. I'll upload some more pix from that adventure soon.
Kirsi's favorite new activity - leaping at the animals when they aren't looking.
