Papa's 60th

We went to Peoria for Ron's (Papa) 60th birthday.  On Thursday night he had a pizza party at a local pizza place.  Cory decided to be the game master for the party and pulled together a fun game to give his dad his present.  Brady loved the game and is already asking what game he will get to play to get his presents in a couple of weeks.

On Friday we spent the morning at Tanners playing in the kids area, visiting the petting farm and picking apples.  Both Ellie and Brady loved picking and tasting apples.  Ellie is now really good at saying apple.  She says it in a really soft voice for some reason.  Tanners has a great market with all sorts of yummy things to sample. We had planned on eating lunch at the orchard, but when we were about three people away from placing our order the power went out.  We waited for about 15 minutes, but had no idea when it would come back on so gave up and went home for lunch.  Reports are that the power game back on about 15 minutes later so I guess we were not patient enough.

We also managed to squeeze in swimming, fishing and a few other fun activities.

Happy 60th Birthday Papa!
