Go-karts

We did a ton of front yard work on Sunday. We talked with almost all our neighbors too. Cooper was helpful with the yard work and helped Mama by finding big worms when she was digging.
After the day of work we though it would be fun to take Cooper on the Go-karts at Oaks Park. We had about an hour before it closed. Here is the pictures waiting our turn.






Once they got in the kart Cooper informed us he needed to go potty. Here is that unhappy picture.



We were able to get out and go potty before it started. Cooper and Mama rode together and Mommy rode solo. Cooper kept his ears covered the whole time and they lapped Mommy. It was another fun time at the fair!

Today we had an incredibly lazy morning. Once we all got up we went to get pastries at our favorite breakfast place. We enjoyed the pastries out on our deck in the sun and then did a little yard work in the backyard. I fimished tilling up the garden and laying out compost while Sharon and Cooper tackled a big stump we need to remove.

We ended the night with a great BBQ at Holly and Angie's house.

Great weekend!

Day at the Fair

We went to the Multnomah County Fair Saturday. Cooper loves the rides on the Midway so we took the train first.
Cooper played in some corn for awhile. He loved flopping around in the corn and scooping it up.



We fed some animals and watched the pig races. Cooper loves bunnies and pretended to be a bunny, hopping around as we walked.






Then we hit the rides.










Cooper even rode the ferris wheel with Mama. He's been talking about the ferris wheel for weeks and he loved it!



Now he wants to go back and ride the go karts.

Funny Shots

Cooper played with my phone this morning and decided to take some pictures of me. This is me getting cream for my coffee.


















Then Cooper asked me to take some pictures of him.

























All blurry because he was on the move.

Friends

Cooper loves the new play structure and playing on it with his friends.

Helper

Cooper is a big helper with gardening. He loves to find worms, he says, "oh look at this little wormy. He's so cuuuute." It is very sweet.
He was helping me dig a hole last week.









The last picture is him and a wormy. He likes to keep them all together as a family!

Amusement Fun

We took a trip to Walmart a couple weekends ago and there was an amusement center set up. Cooper rode the car and the boat. He didn't want to ride anything else. I used up our tickets on the Octopus, whew that thing spins.
















I am excited about Oaks Park this summer.
