Busy Day


Dearest Blessings~

We were all up early this morning.  Today was such a beautiful, cooler day!  We all got ready for the day and then headed out to church! 

We went to Holy Cross and saw Grandpa Jim.  Fr. Gibson was happy to see you all too.  You all played in the nursery for most of the service and then came out after the sermon for a blessing during communion.  Everything thought you two were so cute!  ;-)

Afterward, we headed over to Mimi's house and also saw Grandpa Mike.  We visited on the back deck and then headed to a restaurant for some lunch.  Oh my, you two kept eating Grandpa Mike's chips at lunch and not your own meals!  :-P

Once everyone was fed, we headed to Target for some groceries for the week.  You two each ate a cookie while there.  In fact, Joshua, you ate 2 cookies at Mimi's, 2 cookies at the restaurant, and 1 at Target!  :-P  Are you full of cookies yet? 

We got home around 3:30pm and tried to get everyone down for a nap.  You two fought it so it was a very late nap day.  I had lots of baby biscuit kicks are you all slept.  I wonder if she'll be a soccer player?  Or a rockette dancer?  ;-)  Grace, you were cranky once you woke from your nap. 

You two had fun once awake though.  We put you two in the wagon and took advantage of the beautiful evening.  We walked for 50 minutes around the neighborhood before sunset. 

Everyone had a small dinner once home and then we headed upstairs.  Daddy played the guitar for you all and then you all started to 'play' it.  It was so cute!  I took some photos of you all playing together.  Then, you all colored and we read some books. 

So, how did we do with our Family Goals this month?  Pretty good!  Let's see:

Sleep tight little ones!
