Grapefest & Hudson's Birthday Party...

What an exciting day!

We started the morning with a trip to Grapefest...


They had live bands...


and I danced through the streets...


I got to ride a carousel...


and a HUGE slide with daddy...



and we ran into Sophia in the kids area...


Daddy helped me dig in the sand & we did a lot of walking...


after a bath, a nap and a drive... we arrived at Hudson's Circus...

Mom was SO excited that I got to wear my circus shirt again...


He had a big lion and tiger to ride...


and lots of great costumes to dress up in...


But mom brought my tutu with me (thanks Nana)...


Cookie the Clown arrived...


Entertaining the birthday boy...


I lasted through about 1/2 of the show...


Mostly because daddy had popcorn... (no doubt we are related in this picture)...


A little circus ballerina...


Finally we headed outside to enjoy all of the carnival activities...


I made myself at home in the ball pit...



and rode the rocking horse...


and I even got some cotton candy!


YUM!


Mom got a cute picture of Hudson eating his dinner...


after the clown's show I got to check out her bunny...


SO awesome!


Mom asked Hudson to give me a hug and he went in for a kiss...


Doesn't he look guilty in this picture? And I look like I'm saying "what were you thinking?"


Proof that mommy was there...


and that she participated in dress up!


Sophia was there too!


a little circus ballerina marionette...


Hudson's cake was over the top!



I enjoyed my slice...


This picture is so toddler to mom... totally and completely independent...


Hudson even had a clown pinata...


He did a pretty good job with his swings...


I practiced my tight rope routine...


and my Groucho Marx impersonation...


Daddy and I had a great time playing together...


and we decided daddy should NEVER grow a mustache!


But it was funny!


What a great day!
