Hunger Games release party

We got together with some of the kids from book club for a Hunger Games party the night the movie came out.  The kids played some games, ate, and had a quick scavenger hunt before heading out for a midnight showing of the movie.  We were tired the next day, but the movie was so good and the night was so fun that it was definitely worth it!

Crowe's Nest Farm

A couple of days ago we spent the morning at Crowe's Nest Farm.  We hadn't been since Avery was little, so I figured we were due!

I only managed to get one picture of all the kids, and Griffin wasn't really in the picture mood.

On the hayride.

We enjoyed the mix of typical farm animals...

...and more exotic animals.

We also made a startling discovery while at the farm.  The resemblance is uncanny, no?
