Weekend fun

We had a great weekend! Friday after music class, we spent 3.5 hours at our favorite park with lots of friends. And one of our friends brought chocolate covered pretzels- yummmm! Jake was so funny- he only wanted the non-chocolate dipped pretzel. Miss McKenna only wanted the chocolate that she could lick off and didn't take a single bite of the pretzel rod. Me? I liked the whole thing!


Friday night we watched a cute baby while her parents went out. I was surprised by how much Jake and McKenna liked holding her and bringing her toys to make her happy. No more babies in our near future, lest you read into my kids being happy with a baby around. 



Saturday we went to a fun 1 year old birthday party in the morning and headed to the beach for the afternoon. It was a particularly exciting beach adventure because within 10 minutes of being there, Andrew and I were soaked. We went to get our toes wet when a surprise wave got us good- I still have no idea how it happened, but at least we were able to keep McKenna dry. And Jake hasn't come anywhere near the waves since one tipped him over 7 or 8 months ago, so he also escaped unscathed. Maybe he'll warm up to the ocean again soon. But for now, he's happy digging in the sand and climbing rocks. 



After an hour or so of (soggy) relaxation and playing in the sand, the rain came. It was more of a heavy mist than true rain, but it was enough to send is packing. Despite the precipitation and waves, we had fun and enjoyed our beach time, as always. 


We came home and made dinner and enjoyed a family movie night, thank you redbox. And it was made even more exciting by homemade popcorn and cuddling on the couch. 

Today we went to church and had a friend over for dinner. Here's to a great week to follow a fun weekend!
