Week in Review {6/22-7/3}

So maybe it's more like two weeks in review?! Ha!

So here is what we have been up to:

Parking Lot Party (I will do a whole post on this one, but this is where we have been spending our Tuesday's)








This one is enjoying (I promise he was smiling before I took this!) buggy rides at school like a big boy!


We partnered with Jackson Grove Baptist and did VBS (whole post coming).


We had some downtime to play at home!


I went to hang out with these beautiful ladies.


We went to Easton's bday party (see previous post).


We had church. And our Redeemer Kids are the cutest there are ;-)


We went to Louisville to celebrate the 4th at Aunt Lisa's (post coming).





My boys stayed at Grandma's for two nights and got some good quality time with her and Papaw.


This one got in a swing for the first time.








Went to parking lot party again.








Transitioned out of the swaddle into a zippadee doo.


We went to the theater to see Inside Out! (Big treat bc we never go to the theater) so cute!


Played around the house ;-)


Went to Beech Bend!








Pretty full two weeks! Whew!

Beech Bend Fun!

We have Season Passes to Beech Bend once again (yay Christmas presents! Thanks Mom & Dad!), and we are finally starting to use them. We had a busy start to summer with church softball, Parking Lot party, Bible Study, and some holidays thrown in there etc. But we are determined to get there much more regularly the rest of the summer.

A few weeks ago, we randomly ended up with a free Thursday night. So, we decided to head over to Beech Bend and at least ride a few rides before they closed. I should be honest, I had seen their Facebook post that Dippin Dots were free on Thursdays in June and was determined to go! Ha! It was a perfect time to go because there was hardly anyone left there. Griffin got to ride all the kid rides with no waits. Yay!

We went to the "petting farm", which I think we should rename the "pet a billion cute goats farm". Ha.


Little man had a blast watching brother ride rides. He is a people watcher :-) #hegetsithonest











They got a new kids ride this summer- Monster Trucks! Pretty cool.


Inside the Spinning Dragons...


He was proud that he has his very own pass this year!


We decided to go back today, and Uncle D finally has his cast off and got to join us! It rained on and off all day, so we only went for a few hours after nap time. We did the amusement part today and hope to do the water stuff tomorrow.



He rode with his arms up and "relaxing" the whole time. Ha!





This ride is called Whip, and it whips you around on the two ends of the ride. After it would sling Griffin he would wipe his forehead as if to say "whew". Haha! What a ham.


Yep. My 3 year old rode the swings today. The normal adult ones. And he LOVED them and was begging to go over and over.











We had a great time! A storm rolled in and we were getting in the car literally just as buckets of water started coming down. Good timing. Hopefully we can go tomorrow for the "lazy Susan" (Griffin gets the lazy river and the lazy Susan at home mixed up, haha!).

Yay for 3 day weekends!!

Happy Birthday Easton!

Last weekend we headed to Chaney's Dairy Barn for Easton's 4th Birthday. We had a blast playing on the playground, jumping on the jumping pillow, taking a tractor ride to the farm, and seeing a baby calf. It was such a gorgeous day for a party!



























These boys have been friends since they were in the womb! Easton was supposed to be born a week after Griffin, but he came a week early and Griffin came two weeks late! Ha.


Happy birthday buddy!

Nanny Time

At the beginning of May (yes I am that behind on the blog...), the boys and I spent a Saturday down in Gallatin. My dad has worked at a printing company down there for as long as I can remember. That weekend was a big anniversary, so they invited friends and family to come tour the plant. I went on one of these when I was elementary aged, so I was excited to get to go back again!

Before the tour, we went with my dad to get some Nanny time. Griffin adores her, which I am very happy about because she is his last living great grandparent. The boys had a good time.









We got to see Mimi and the girls for just a minute too, so this is the only picture I got!


It was a great quick trip, wish we had more time to do those!

Happy Birthday Liam & Ireland!

Like a month ago, we got to head out to the farm for Liam & Ireland's birthday party. It was a great day for it, and their farm is gorgeous!



Griffin LOVED seeing the pigs! We are city folk, so this was super cool (and a bit smelly)!











All the kids took a minute to soak Uncle D!





We had a blast, thanks guys!
