Friday was spent at the park as our playgroup wasn’t able to meet due to illness. The kids had a blast and Hubby was able to spend some much-needed time taking care of his car and working on his music, getting it ready to send to possible publishers. When we came home Cutie Pie informed Hubby that he ‘pretended to share’ while in the sandbox with other boys and girls. Not entirely sure what that meant!
Saturday we all piled into the car after an extremely hectic morning with kids full of anticipation and headed to Grampa’s house 2 hours away. The kiddos promptly fell asleep and woke up with only half hour to go in the drive, so they were completely ready to go crazy in the country! We had lots of fun playing in the piles of sand and dirt before heading to my aunt and uncle’s 50th anniversary party. They are such a special couple, parents to 5 beautiful grown girls, and grandparents to a gorgeous young lady in college and 5 good looking young men ranging in age from 2 through 17, and they hold a very special place in my heart. There is so much love in that family it is ridiculous! This was the first time in years that I have seen all of my cousins at one time and it was such a memorable experience! The boys, on the other hand, didn’t fare so well, especially Sweet Pea! Poor Hubby ended up taking them to Grampa’s house after getting to eat only 2 bites of his dinner! And poor Cutie Pie had been looking forward to the cake all week and didn’t get to have any!
Instead of writing about all of our experiences today and risking boredom, I will just share a couple of songs and a quote from Cutie Pie that I heard throughout the day and share throughout the week some of the fun things we did at Grampa’s and at Gramma’s as well as pics.
“B – I – N – G – O, B – I – N – G – O,
B – I – N – G – O, and BINGO was his name-o!” He’s never sung this correctly before!
“Tricky Baby, Tricky Baby, Tricky Baby, Tricky Baby,
Tricky Baby, breaking all the stuff”
He sang this at the dinner table for no apparent reason.
“Is it Family Game Night?”
We’ve never had Family Game Night before! It was a blast because he requested the three games we have, got them all out and set up, then Sweet Pea climbed all over the board while Cutie Pie made the game pieces move this way and that saying they were swimming! Where does he come up with this stuff?!
