Birthdays are meant to be celebrated with family and friends and celebrated for as many days as one can squeeze out of them.  Thursday we spent the day in Kentucky with Matthew, Taelor, Alexandra, (1 yr) and Christopher (will turn 3 in Jan) celebrating Mathew's 26!!! birthday and my birthday.  We took the children to a nearby park so they could climb on the fort and slide down slides.

Christopher talking to the ducks.  Taelor brought 2 bags of frozen peas to feed the ducks. 

Alexandra with the ducks.

Feeding the ducks peas.  In the background is the play area.  It's a huge wooden fort with four slides, towers and many climbing levels.  I worked up quiet a sweat climbing, bending to fit through the openings, and sliding with Christopher.  Temperature was 59-60 with full sun and brisk breeze.

Christopher asked me to follow him through this slide.  I surely would have clogged that one up.  Rotor rooter would have had to rescue me. 

Little ones never stop moving!
Everyone was hungry after chasing children and being out in the air.  We ate at a family-owned and children-friendly restaurant and had hot dogs, hamburgers, french fries, and an ice-cream cake.  I haven't eaten french fries in  I don't know how long.  They tasted so-o-o good.  A wonderful day of celebrating with family.
