Biking, Birthday Party, Block Party and Sunday School

We had another fun, busy weekend! Friday we saw our friends, Jesse, Nina and Jack! Nina is due with their 2nd child in November, so it was great to see them! The kids had fun running around and playing together!

Saturday morning we biked/walked over to the farmers market. My parents came up to watch Madelyn and Jack and so they stopped by on their way up. Bishop had to show off his new biking skills for Nana and papa! He was pretty excited!

Bishop had a birthday party for his friend from school, Fiona. This was his first friend birthday party and he had a blast!! He was so excited to carry the present into the party and to see all his friends from school. They all played at the park and then had cake and opened presents

Fiona's birthday party with friends from school!



It was quite the day as we had our block party that night. There was the bouncy house, which Bishop loved. Nora wasn't quite as interested in it...but she still had a great time!

The fire truck came to visit and the kids LOVED it!! The firemen were all so nice to show the kids the hoses, the inside of the truck and to tell them all about it!  Bishop was a bit confused, as he asked..."where is the fire? Is the fire in the back of the truck?" The innocence of children is so sweet.....it would only make sense to him that a fire truck would have a fire! The firemen thought it was really cute and he said he hears that question a lot! :)

Bishop and Johnny checking out the hose!
Bishop wasn't very interested in sitting in the truck, but Nora loved it and didn't want to leave!

Nora is quite the independent little girl! She took her dessert and walked over to the sidewalk, sat down and ate it all by herself! She knows what she wants and she's going to get it! ;)  There is a family on our block (Domino's family) who moved away for a year and they're now back. It's so fun for Nora to have a girlfriend just a few houses down!



Bishop fast asleep after a very fun day!


Sunday morning brought Bishop's first day of Sunday School.  He was hesitant for us to leave....and he kept asking the teacher where all the toys were ;), but he had fun and he said he liked it and was excited to go back next week! On the way there he had a million questions for us about Jesus (why did the bad guys use nails to kill Jesus? Did Jesus have a sword? Where does Jesus live? Who is God? Why? Why? Why?) It was a fascinating conversation and it made me smile.  I told him to ask the teacher as many questions as he liked-I'm not sure if he did or not...but he did get a sticker which was for being a good listener (at least that's what he told us)! 


We celebrated by going out for breakfast (just kidding--we usually go out for breakfast after church...it's just been awhile)! :)

I'm so bummed--my little camera broke on Saturday before Fiona's birthday party and my phone doesn't take the best quality pictures (they're not horrible....as all of these pictures are from my phone, but they're not all good). I guess I need to get with the times, as I know not many people carry small cameras around anymore! :)
