On one of the first days that we were up there, we took Emma to Kelsey Creek Park in Bellevue. I went to that park all the time growing up so it was fun to take her there. The main reason we went there though was because they have a little farm and we all know how much Emma LOVES animals right now!!
She looked at the big pig with Pa:
She also saw chickens and bunnies and we also had the opportunity to watch them bring the cows into the barn from the fields.
After we saw the animals, we went to the playground and played for a long time. Emma had so much fun!

Riding on the teeter-totter with Pa & Grandma:
When I was younger, my siblings and I, used to slide down our stairs a lot. We designed a contraption with fold up mattresses and blankets to make us go really fast. We even used to take the cats down with us - they sure loved that! :) Well this time when we were up there, we decided Emma was old enough to be exposed to this and she really liked it. We went down over and over again and she even got Pa to go down with her. He's a sucker...
We had a surprise party for my mom on her actual birthday and once again she was very surprised!! To get her out of the house, Emma & I took her to get pedicures. This was Emma's first time getting an official pedicure and she had a really good time - it was very cute!
I probably won't be taking her again anytime soon b/c her's chipped off very quickly, but it was still a fun experience. She even got to have Starbucks with us before we got there!
After the party, Emma had a great time playing with the balloons. Here she is with all of them and her new sheep from Great Grandma Kelly:

It was definitely a busy few days, but we had a great time! My mom thanked us for coming up and for all the surprises and I told her we'd come back anytime she turned 50!! :)
