Busy Busy Week (and a Half!)

What a week (and a half)! With Papa in town we have been quite busy enjoying the sites and activities of the area. Here's a little recap:

Saturday-Sept 20-WalMart for shopping and Subway lunch

Sunday-Sept 21-Church and a nice slow afternoon

Monday-Sept 22-Reid and Papa went to Costco in the morning, and we all hit the park in the afternoon. Normally Kai loves the swings, but on this trip he learned that slides could be fun, too.


Tuesday-Sept 23-It was back to work for Reid. Kai, Papa, and I went to Michaels for some new flowers for my mailbox flower bed (yes, I used fake flowers. Sooooo much easier.) Then we went to Fazoli's for some yummy lunch. In the afternoon I went visiting teaching and Kai stayed with Papa. They had a good time.

Wednesday-Sept 24-We drove up to the outlets to make some returns and purchase some pants for our growing boy. What trip is complete without lunch! And so we had McDonalds, where Kai had his first Happy Meal, which he happily did NOT eat.

Thursday-Sept 25-After a morning trip to Walmart for a few items, I also hit the grocery store while Kai was down for his nap. After the nap we returned to the park. After a short while there we were literally "run out" by a middle school cross country team and so we went to Coldstone for some ice cream. Finally we ended the day with a trip to PetSmart to see the animals. At PetSmart we learned that the sales associates actually recognize me and Kai--hmmmm.....maybe I use that as a field trip too often!

Reading with Papa

Getting tired

All tuckered out

Friday-Sept 26-Reid had the day off again and so the family headed out to the Pumpkin Patch. Kai had a great time! His two favorite parts were petting the goats and playing in the corn box. I actually think I might take him back just to see the goats and the corn again. For a free activity, it can't be beat!

Of course, what day would be complete without lunch at Arbys. Kai had a very exciting morning--maybe that would explain why he had a hard time winding down! And the week wasn't over yet.........To Be Continued........
