Weekend Fun

We had a great weekend! It started on Thursday when Chloe went to Grandma & Grandpa's house for a sleepover and Kevin and I went to a Third Day concert. We had general-admission tickets, but walked by a security man at just the right time, found out we could sit in seats on the floor-level, and ended up 10 rows back from the stage! It was a great show and I was really excited to be in a chair instead of a bleacher seat!!

We got to visit with Laura, Bill, and Connor on Friday night for dinner when we went to my parents to pick up Chloe. She had a wonderful time at their house ~ lots of laughing and practicing "Bill" (to go along with "Lawa" and "bay-bee"). Connor is getting really big! He's bigger than Chloe was at two months :)

Then! On Saturday morning we packed up everything and headed to visit our friends Jeff and Liz and their little girl Eliana. After nap time on Saturday afternoon we went to the park across the street from their house (literally) and had a great time watching the girls play. Both Kevin and Jeff assisted on the slides & getting up and down the steps -- but some of the slides were the perfect height to let the girls go down all by themselves:




They loved it! Eliana and Chloe both got to ride down the big slides too:

(side note: you can't tell me that Chloe and Kevin don't look the same - this pictures proves it! :) )



These girls would have stayed at the park all day! Look at these happy faces:


We had much more on the agenda - eating BBQ for dinner at City Barbeque (which was excellent!) and then walking through the downtown area and stopping for some organic ice-cream. This place had some interesting flavors - Kevin had Riesling Poached Pear and Wildberry Lavender ... I had Salty Carmel and Brown Butter Almond Brittle. It was really good stuff! :)

When we got back to Jeff & Liz's place it was almost bed time for the girls....but not before a bath!

After playing a few games and chatting until 'late' at night, we headed to bed and then had a wonderful breakfast on Sunday morning before going to church. After church, Liz and I had to get a picture taken. Liz was pregnant with Eliana at the same time I was pregnant with Chloe:

We're also pregnant together this time, the same amount of time in between our due dates as last time!! Liz is due at the end of August (and makes me look really short in this picture! I should have stood on a stool or something!)


The guys had to have a picture with the girls too because we did that the first time we met Eliana. Here they are in March 2010:

and March 2011:

Thank you for hosting us for the weekend Liz and Jeff! You are excellent hosts! Chloe has been wandering around today saying "Ell-y", proof that she had a wonderful time as well :)

Yey! Great post! :) We had a wonderful time with all of you as well, & are excited that the next time we see you, you will have a beautiful new baby. Eliana definitely misses Chloe as well ... I asked her today if she missed her friend, and she did the sign for 'yes'...it was so cute...

Camping Trips #2 and #3

At the beginning of August, we went on a camping trip with my immediate family. We had great campsites, right next to each other, and had fabulous weather. Chloe had a great time hanging out with her Aunt Laura, Uncle Bill, and Aunt Michelle: She also loved my dad's cell phone ringtone: Who says you can't eat great food while you're camping? Check out our dinner feast on Saturday night....Corn on the cob, cheeseburgers, grilled pineapple: Chloe had her first taste of the "beach" when we went to the lake one day. It was the first time she was in the sand, and I think she really liked it! When looking back at the camping pictures, I realized that Chloe wore a lot of hats on this trip: We got back from a Cousins Camping Trip on Sunday night. (Almost) All my cousins got together for the weekend and we had a great time. Another camping trip with good campsites and this time we just had okay weather. It rained Saturday night so everything was a bit soggy on Sunday ...

I hope he's not moving in....
