To sum up the weather from this past weekend it was GORGEOUS! The dew point was low, which meant dry and warm. I was on the bike path by 7 am for Saturday’s run, and it was so beautiful!
After squeezing in a run, we had my older son’s fourth birthday party at Slater Park. This year’s birthday theme was a picnic party. We love having birthdays outside, weather permitting of course! I love having the kids enjoy outside time and get LOTS of exercise, while having fun at the same time.
I think they were a big hit—each child loved getting his/her own little basket. We had a cake (see picture) made that had Paddy O’Concrete on it (for those of you who have children obsessed with the original Cars movie—you may recognize him as a monster truck from the Mater Toons).
Sunday was a long run on the Cape. I headed down to Falmouth this weekend to help my mother with a few things around the house before my stepfather heads to the hospital this morning for an intensive treatment for his melanoma. The weather was absolutely beautiful and I ran from my Mom’s house to Woods Hole on the bike path and back.
How was YOUR weekend?
Those goody bags are too cute! Loved that you filled them with healthy treats. I’ll have to remember thee banana and yogurt idea.
We had a great weekend filled with Little League, running, and lazy family fun 🙂
Those baskets are adorable!! So creative! :). Glad you got to enjoy the beautiful weather!!
You get big points for those uber creative baskets! I’m sure they did love them. And love the cake–I’m sad that my kids are too old now to like Cars. : (
Don’t you just LOVE when a run goes that well and surprises the heck out of you?? So freakin’ cool. PS you are so craft, I’d never think of the basket idea, so cute!!
Love the picnic lunch basket idea! And the adorable cake. Plus a good long run- sounds like the perfect weekend!
The party, the running, and the whole weekend sound fabulous! I LIVE for the weather we had this weekend – perfection!
You’re so creative! I love the basket ideas, too cute!
