We had an unusual weekend packed with activities. Normally, I sell soap at the Olathe Farmer’s Market on Saturday mornings, but this generally wears me out, so weekends are for relaxing and not doing much.

However, my husband bought season passes to Worlds of Fun (amusement park) for himself and the girls this year, so while I was at the farmer’s market on Saturday, they went and had some FUN! Fortunately, the girls take after my husband in their love of roller coasters and thrill rides. He can’t do all the spinning rides anymore, but the girls are tall enough to go with each other on those.

Yesterday afternoon, our family went to the Overland Park Arboretum for their Arts 4 Kids program, sponsored by the Friends of the Arboretum. For just $5 each, we all rode on the hay ride, the girls made crafts, got their faces painted, got to learn all about snakes that are native to Kansas and hold them, as well as play in a bell choir. Fun, Fun, FUN!

Here are some pics from the Arboretum:
