We were invited to celebrate Philips 50th bday
So we hopped in the Kabota and across the river we went.
We had a great time.
We really enjoy spending time with all the Powers family.
They are so great and they do such fun things from making their own ice rink and playing hockey in the winter to , balloon lanchers, rocket contests etc. they are very family oriented and from what I can see have raised some really awesome children, who are now raising their own children.Pretty good model to follow
Philips daughter is a school teache3r and she brought this to do as a exeriment. if you put cornstarch with water it creates a goop. but if you pick it up and handle it quickly and constantly it will stay on a solid form but as soon as you stop working it it turns back to goop. so the kids had a blast trying it.
And then they showed that you if moving quickly and constnatly could run on it without sinking but as soon as you stopped you would sink. so weston had to try it! too Cool
And then came the rocket contest. The family is into making rockets and launching them. So the boys watched as they prepared.
And of course because there was a fairly loud unknown noise , nelson walked around with his hands to his ears
Daddy and Weston watching the festivities
And then out came the balloon launcher. A huge HIT
Westons turn
Due to Nelsons tired state and dislike for noise and anything new , he found comfort in the house watching from the window with Nanny!
He wouldnt stop putting them in his mouth an d then he got upset when they exploded all over him hahaha hence the no shirt pictures
Cute boy!!!!!
And of course the Kabota was a big hit with the kids.so we gave rides!
What a great day!
