Happy Birthday Lansing!!

Today we went to the capitol to celebrate the 150th birthday of Lansing. It included a picnic lunch on the lawn of the capitol building, dance demonstrations, music from the Boomers (JNL corporate band, w00t), story time, and much, much more.

Immediately following lunch (including birthday cake!), Kiki tried out the bubbles provided in the kiddie bag provided to her. She approved of them immensely.


Then we went over to the Kid's Tent to play in the sensory table, filled with dried beans, macaroni and rice. Fun!! After that, it was over to the merry-go-round. Yes, this was the hit of the day. It was smiles all around for the Kikster.




Then we shared some ice cream...


Then we played peek-a-boo on the capitol steps...



Finally, we watched the Nakomis dance and drum demonstration.



We had so much fun, we went straight home for a nap!
