Our Weekend

My sister texted me after my last post and told me that I was too vague:) Well, sorry, but that is all you get. I can tell you that it has nothing to do with the pregnancy - all is well there.

Here is a recap of our crazy weekend.

Friday night: Picked Brian up from work at 5p.m and grabbed some food. Then we parked at Forest Park for the Balloon glow. We decided to try it without the stroller. Kaylee did great and it was sooo much fun. She rode on Brian's shoulders most of the way to the balloons and walked the rest. We hit some of the boothes for freebies and then saw the balloons light up. We did not take pictures because we were having so much fun as a family we forgot, plus it is dark and hard to get any good ones. We did put glow sticks on Kaylee so it was easier to keep track of her. We left around 8:30p.m thinking she would clunk out in the car, wrong. She was so excited from all the activities that she was wide awake the whole way home and even had a hard time falling asleep when we got her home. She did sleep in alittle on satuday though.

Saturday:

We decided to head to the botanical garden for about an hour. Here is an awesome picture Brian got of Kaylee.

After the Botanical Garden, we headed back to Forest Park for the balloon race. We thought this was a good idea, it turned out to not be the best idea. We thought there were activities all day, but we were wrong. If we do it again next year, we will show up at 3p.m for the skydivers, freebies, and then the launch of the balloons. That is all you need. Brian did manage to take aver 300 pictures so I am not going through all of them. Here is a snapshot of one with some of the balloons taking off.

We ended up being down there until 5:30 and then had to get out with all the traffic. We thought we parked near an exit but it was still 45 minutes before getting out of the park. We were all exhausted. I made a peanut butter sandwhich for Kaylee and sent her to bed since she had no nap. It was still after 7p.m. before she got to bed. She did sleep in until after 7a.m. though.

Sunday:

We headed to Church and then home for pizza and naps. Thinking Kaylee had been exhausted from the business of the past two days and she would clunk out fast, wrong. She again did not take a nap but laid in her room for 1 hour and a half and was as giddy as possible when we let her get up.

We then had to clean up the house and get supper prepared for 6 other people. We were partaking in "dinner for 9" through our Church. We had a blast and even Kaylee had another little girl to play with. Again though, she did not get to bed until 9p.m. and was up at 6:30 this morning, now she is napping though:)

All in all, it was a great weekend and here is a snapshot to show you just how much fun we had:)

We are exhausted now and I am going to take a rest also.
