It's a good thing they are cute!!

This past weekend, the girls finally wore me out. I swear the more and more I do with them the wilder they are. You would think keeping them busy all day would finally hit them in the late afternoon, ohhh no, not my wonderful adorable child…which is what I had to keep telling myself all weekend.

Saturday morning, the Junior League puts on an event called Touch a Truck. I had always heard about it when I was in the junior league, but I had never been before. The whole family headed out to see all the truck, tractors, military trucks, ambulances, fire trucks, etc. Anything and everything truck related was there. They also had bounce houses and face painting, which always sparks the girl’s interest.

Notice there aren’t any pictures of Grayson, well she had a death grip on me after seeing Cocky. After me telling her 100 times that Cocky went home, I gave up and just held her.

After Touch a Truck we ran home to grab some lunch and put on the girl’s princess outfits. My mom awhile back got us tickets to go see Disney on Ice: Dare to Dream event. Course since my mom broke her foot, Ben got to go (hehe). The girls had so much fun watching all the princesses and all the cool stuff that Disney does. Ben and I actually had a good time to.

Saturday night the girls were still running around like crazy. I think the cotton candy got to them. Ben started feeling sick, so I cooked dinner and got everyone ready for bed. Ben ended up having some sort of stomach bug or something.

Sunday morning they got up bright and early just like they normally do, ready to go again. Ben was still sick and stayed in the bed. I wanted to keep the girls out of the house just in case he did have the stomach bug. We took Buttercup for a 2 hour walk, YES, a 2 hour walk…only because they both I have to spot and pick up every single rock flower, leaf, etc. Thankfully Buttercup is very patient!!! We fixed a lunch and headed to Sesqui with Calvin and Theresa for a picnic and to park at the park. We ate our picnic, feed the ducks, and just played for a few hours. After the park we went to go yogurt and then to a play at the mall. The mall has a little children’s theater in it. The acting was horrible and Grayson sat on my lap, on the floor, the whole time. I didn’t realize how much it was going to hurt until I tried to stand back up. The girls thought it was funny, so that’s all I cared about. Since we were already out I decided to go to the grocery store for the weekly shopping. We were gone from 10:00 am until 5:15ish pm. I was pooped. We went to my parent’s house for dinner and lucky Ben started feeling better so he was able to come with us. WE finally got back home around 8:00 and the three of them went straight to bed. Butter and I finally had some time to just sit and do nothing, and that’s what we did!
