Whirlwind Weekend

This weekend was a whirlwind, but fun! On Friday, Joshua's school had their annual fall festival and his class was in charge of the cake walk booth. Dan and I went early to help set up the booth. I believe the cake walk was Joshua's favorite booth out of the whole festival! Numbers and music, what's not to love!? On Saturday morning we woke up bright and early and headed to Plano to help celebrate Aubrey's first birthday! It was really nice to see family and be able to visit with them and share Aubrey's birthday! All the kids had a great time running and playing together and the adults enjoyed football and good conversation after the party. We stayed over at my cousin's house (Brittney and Jeff) and we stayed up way past our bedtime playing a game called Dice Capades! This is game is really fun and interesting. We all laughed until we cried and just had a really good time hanging out. My brother, Chad came over as well and it was so great to spend time with him and my cousin and her husband. We always have a blast when we get together. On Sunday, we went to Dan's mom's house to spend the day with Mimi and Papa. We had a fun time going to see Mimi's store and eating lunch out. Mimi's store is by a place called Uptown Popcorn and it is really yummy. We went in there to get a drink for Joshua and came out with some yummy buttery popcorn. They let you try any flavor you want and boy do they have a lot of flavors. We enjoyed our Sunday with Mimi and Papa. We got on the road about 5 and headed back home. We would have been home by 830, but do to some annoying construction traffic we didn't get home until 10. It seems like all of our weekends are whirlwinds, but we always have a great time no matter what!

Cake walk!

Joshua enjoying the cake walk booth

Pumpkin bowling. He kept pushing it along until it knocked a bottle over and then he got to pick a prize...a car(are we surprised, No!)


First taste of Cotton Candy...


There were numbers underneath the boats, but Joshua didn't care he just wanted to push them around in the water. This was probably his 2nd favorite booth!



The jump house which he stayed in for about a minute and never jumped. This also ended our fun at the festival when Joshua got pushed by another kid and got his feelings hurt and wanted to go home right then and there. Such a sensitive kiddo!



Maddie and Joshua playing on the iphone


The birthday girl!! Her mommy made her shirt and it said "I am 1!" Too cute!
