hooping it up at eeyore's birthday party 2012 (pease park)
it seems that more people came out than ever before to wish eeyore a happy birthday day. we had planned to get costumes organized and get #1 son a potato sack so he could practice for the sack race... well, they didn't have sack races this year and kat worked a slew of late nights this week and we did well enough just making it to the event.

1965 ford econoline hubcaps make nice drums and hats at the same time.


#2 son has a handle on this birthday thing, he is so ready for his next birthday. talks about it constantly. so we had talked up eeyore's birthday. he asked "where is eeyore". I think he was calling our bluff. but when we took him to see the real donkey he quickly clammed up and backed away. #1 son was more comfortable wishing eeyore a happy birthday


throw the sack games...

the most fun part of eeyore's.... the people watching. we camped under a tree, enjoyed some best wurst, kat got her giant smoked turkey leg, and some saint arnold's. it was a very relaxing way to spend the afternoon.


lots of girls wearing body paint.








we found a field of hula-hoops as we walked out of pease park and much hooping did ensue..





we had a quick stop at kat's office (more work) and then we had a very refreshing dinner at imperia.

sat at our usual booth and made our selves at home.

chop sticks are not so easy without his helper but he tried...

easier to eat sushi with fingers.

sit on the floor, stand, lay down and eat.... whatever it takes. we took it casually.

yes, he got food on his nose. because he eats like this...
