Weekend Antics

We had a busy weekend! Around lunchtime on Saturday we drove up to my older brother's house to celebrate Father's Day and our dad's 69th birthday. We had lunch, opened gifts, and then spent the afternoon outside letting the kids play in the backyard. Chloe's favorite was probably the slide. After she got over her fear, she would slid down and clap and dance wildly from excitement. Her other favorite things were the wading pool and mini car. Megan loved running around and playing in the pool. That night we stayed with my Dad and Chris - got the girls to bed and had pizza for dinner.

Sunday was my brother-in-law's graduation party. It wasn't until the afternoon so we had a leisurely breakfast and then the girls helped grandma and grandpa water the flowers. They could have done that all day and I'm pretty sure some rocks got watered, too. Chloe would say, "He was THIRSTY!" after she would dump her water on the plant. It was soooo cute. Megan generally followed her around tried to steal her watering can - just like any good little sister would do!

The girls were SO tired when we got home - Nathan and I were, too. Unfortunately, our power randomly went out about 20 minutes before we got home and was out for 2 1/2 hours. UGH. I hate being without power! Plus it was 90 degrees so the house was quickly getting hot. We packed up a few things and then hung out at Nathan's parents' house for a bit before coming back home.

So by now we were beyond tired! Fun weekend but we were all glad to crawl into bed that night!
