BUSY BUSY WEEKEND!

WOW. what a busy weekend. So busy that we were all 4 hardly all together at our house. But it was a fun one :)

Friday we went to Grammy and Poppy's house for the day and went to Burr Oak Woods. We had a blast. Anna kept talking about "last time" and apparently she thought we were back in Tennessee again! We walked around, went to the nature center and ate a picnic lunch.






Since Daddy was out on the town at a Bachelor party for his cousin, on the way home we had dinner with Grama, Papa, Aunt Anne and Kate. We ate at the little cafe attached to Jasper's and it was great! The kids even got their own "kids only" table and they thought that was pretty awesome!!!


And that wasn't the last of our stops for the evening. On the drive home Anna said she wanted to go to Gigi's so we stopped there for a quick 5 minute visit which was enough time to consume 8 chocolate chips cookies (along with the others she sent me home with- fresh baked that day!)

The next morning I ran errands before attending a bridal shower for my friend Kelly. I scored an AWESOME kids "train" table for $10 off craigs list (don't worry pics will come!) and did several mommy errands without kids. Daddy and the girls played outside and had a nice time at Deanna Rose Farm.

When I got home at 2, Anna was still awake and missing me so I took a nap with her in her room (on the floor) until 4. Then it was get ready for the Truman Heartland Foundation Gala where Rob's dad was honored with an award for Advisor of the Year. The girls stayed with my parents and had a blast and we enjoyed a nice grown up only evening with Rob's parents and brothers.

This morning we woke up at my parents house and went to church. After that we ran by our house quickly so Rob could mow and I could wash the train table. Then it was back to my parents house for a Chief's party. The girls both napped there and then we went to soccer for Anna. She did much better today with not relying on us right by her side and she did give the coach some high fives (mission accomplished!!!!). Then we finally all 4 got back to the house around 5 in time to play outside, eat dinner and have a chilled out night getting Halloween decorations out (the girls can't wait to decorate Halloween tomorrow!)

Phew! What a weekend. Good- night :)

Much Love,
Jenny
