Seriously? Over a month?

I have no excuses for not blogging sooner... I have been so busy and preoccupied. Every time I sit down to write something, I get distracted.
Last weekend we had gone to a birthday party at this place called the Azle Party Ranch. It was really cool. The kids got to ride on a golf cart up this dirt hill and all around the land.
There was a Party Barn that had an air hockey table....
They had dress up for the kids:
which Jayna enjoyed:

They drove down this path into the woods to find the donkey. Jayna is doing a 'donkey call' here:






After feeding the donkey, it was time to go fishing!






Jayna's first catch:



And Barrett's first catch!

There was a trampoline too!




Waiting in line for the ZIP LINE!!!

Getting suited up!
Harness - check!
Helmet - check!
...up the ladder....
I didn't take a ton of pictures of her up there, because I was trying to video tape it on my phone, but then someone called and it messed up the video =(
Now it's Barrett's turn!
He looks so small up there...
Off he goes!

He had a really good time!
Now it was time for birthday cake!
After the cake, they sat around the campfire and they were given jobs for the Treasure Hunt!
Jayna was volunteering for each job, but she finally got to be 'The Keeper'. After each clue was found, she was in charge of holding on to them.
After someone was selected for a job, they were told to stand in the 'ring'. Barrett didn't have a job, but he likes to copy Jayna.
Here they are receiving instructions for the Treasure Hunt!
And they're off!
Barrett had it easy... this is how he got around!
The clues took them everywhere!
even down the Secret Trail....
And finally.... 'X' marks the spot!
All of the kids received goodie bags...
And everyone got to ride the Firetruck!!!


I didn't get any pictures once we were in motion, but we got to drive out of the camp area and down the road. It was really neat!
The last thing that we did was roasting marshmallows:
Jayna didn't want to, so I didn't get a picture of here.
The kids had a great time. The party was scheduled for 4 hours and the time just flew by! We had a great time there and I think we might try to book a party there sometime. It's fun for kids and adults.
