Some Cinco De Mayo Fun

Well, we figured we needed to celebrate that famous battle at Puebla.  Or at least it made for another good reason to go to Nico's, where we pretty much spend every Friday or Saturday afternoon/night with our good friends and their kiddos (they have a fenced-in playground out back within a huge patio...what more could a parent ask for?!)  :)  At least this time we brought along a burro filled with candy and goodies for the kiddos to take some whacks at with a stick.

When E first saw the pinata at the store, he excitedly proclaimed "Giraffey!!"

Everett's attempt at getting to that "nandy" inside.

...and then we lost him to the salt & pepper, which were much more interesting until it started raining candy.

SWING!  We figure the more pinatas the better ~ it's great practice for t-ball.  ;)

Brody & Anderson looking for that Super Moon that made it's appearance tonight.

The Mommas  :)  We all met in a new moms' group when our oldest kiddos were born, so it's been 4 years now. We got some good chatting in tonight, thanks to the Dads' help on supervision duty. 

Look at all of these cute boys!!  3 sets of brothers

 

This is what happens when the 4-year-olds are hot, exhausted from playing for hours on the playground (not to mention the day of t-ball, swimming, etc.), and just want to chill out.  They all flock to the Iphones and play together.  It was hilarious to watch them as they would help each other and just randomly switch phones with each other, even though they were all playing the same game: Space Angry Birds.

What a FUN night we had with wonderful friends.  We say this every weekend that we go to Nico's:  the most awesome thing we've ever found is a restaurant that has a fenced-in playground on their back patio.  Smartest. Thing. EVER.
