I don't always share other children's Birthday parties, but Jenn organized a princess/hike/tea party celebration for Cora's 4th Birthday party and I couldn't resist the photo opportunity! Besides, Cora and Abigail are best friends and they are TOO cute not to share!
We all gathered in a classroom at the South Suburban Carson Nature Center where we were given a little history about the open space. FYI: The Thompson Flood wiped out the area leaving the wide open space surrounding the Platte river. Currently, bike paths and hiking trails are located along the banks of the river.
After our guide shared some information, we set off on our Princess Pioneer nature hike!
The girls are looking at a picture of one of the Pioneer Princess that the guide taught us about.
The top of this sculpture marks the height of the Big Thompson Flood.
Very interesting, especially in light of the recent Colorado flooding.
Princess Rapunzle (Abby), Princess Sophia (Cora), and Snow White (Mikka)
Miles and Elizabeth were too cool for the princess theme. They walked ahead of the group, creating their own adventures!
Despite the fall chill in the air, it was a beautiful Colorado day for a short hike!
All of the colors have begun to change in the past week.
I LOVE FALL!
Here are some other fun shots I captured form our hike.
Then we stopped on a dock for the tea party and story telling! The guide read, "Do Princesses Wear Hiking Boots?" Very fitting!
Then it was back to the classroom for pizza and cupcakes!
Cora made a beautiful Birthday princess and we all had a great time exploring nature.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY CORA!
