This was the Orem library Teddy Bear Picnic with a Wizard of Oz theme...sounds confusing, huh? It was hard enough to get us dressed and there, forget bringing a teddy bear. Oh and apparently it isn't the kind of picnic that you eat at...whatever. Before we left home Jack and Griffin were both crying. Jack told me through tears and screaming that he didn't even want to dress up anymore. It made me feel awful..probably because I wasn't feeling patient or loving. Thankfully Jack loved the puppets and stories and, of course, the theme.
Little Griffin along for the ride. Steve promises to never call him Biff again.

isn't it always like that?! you find the COOLEST activity you just KNOW they'll love and somehow everybody ends up in tears! national train day for us was the very same experience.
I totally agree with Leisy - it's always that way!! Looks like Jack enjoyed it in the end. It seemed like the PERFECT outing. And worth the effort, too.
So, if not Biff, what is his "nickname"? Everybody has to have one or two...
Yay, Steve! I promise if you call him Biff his hair will get all coarse and icky and other ugly things will happen too. It may get so bad he'll scare your pants off!
Well, the pictures make it look like everyone liked parts of the trip. I wish I could have been there too. I think crying at the Wizard of Oz Teddy Bear Picnic, with no food, would be more fun than work. :)
I think you should keep calling him Biff.
I am seriously in love with these little kids of yours.
how did jack's birthday go?
it's so frustrating to try to get anywhere with little ones. you try so hard to make it all work and somebody's always tired and hungry. that's an awesome pic of him defying gravity.
Looks like fun - wish my library had something like that going on...I think I'd attend even without children! Hope your summer is going well, I always love this time of year (no wonder)!
