our weekend





































We have had a wonderful weekend. The weather has been great...austin has been off and we have had some fun times. The day started yesterday with Colby and I having a playdate with the MOPS moms and kids at the park. There were about a dozen moms and probably 20 kids there. It was a good time. I think Colby thought he was as big as some of the "big boys". He played trucks with some of the little boys though.










After the park we came home to get ready and pack for our last minute trip to Hattiesburg. We left after lunch and drove up. I was so glad Colby slept the entire way in the car. He was nice and refreshed when we got there. It was such a nice day we mainly let him play outside. He rode a tricycle at Austin's parents house and ran around in the backyard. That night we went out to dinner. Colby was so good the whole time. I think Austin's parents were amazed at how grown up he is and how much he talks now. After dinner we brought him back to the apartment to play on the playground. He played until dark and had a blast! He was so happy to be with his mawmaw and pawpaw.










Its so nice to have the apartment we were able to tuck Colby in his own bedroom and then hang out and watch tv. Its really relaxing when we go there because we get to be on our own for some of the time and feel like we have no responsibilities.










When we woke up this morning we got ready so we could go back over to his parent's house. Wendi and the girls were coming over to hang out and eat lunch. Colby was so excited about seeing them! We had thought about taking them all to a park or playground to play. Once the girls got there though they all started playing in the backyard they were having so much fun we decided to just stick around their house. They played with a wagon and then Austin and his dad took turns taking them for rides in a wagon attached to a riding lawn mower. They thought this was a blast! They even rode bikes in the driveway. Colby thought he was big enough for the "big" bike. It was so cute seeing them all play together. Its taken awhile for Colby to really get to the point of "playing" with them but since he turned 2 he has really enjoyed them. Its nice they are all 2 years apart. They are 2 1/2, 4 1/2, and 6 1/2 right now so they play pretty well together. It was such a beautiful day we stayed outside for quite awhile. Once we went inside they had fun in there too. We ate lunch then packed up and headed home.


















It was pretty late in the day when we got home so we pretty much unloaded the car and hung out around the house. We put Colby to bed early due to the fact of him not getting a nap and the time change.
















Sunday was another good but busy day. Ofcourse it began with Sunday School and church. Colby did good again in the 3 year class. It was only him and Emily. He was so funny when she came in the class he was going "hey" "hey" until she talked back to him! During extended care it was him and Zoe in the toddler room. I think they played outside mostly so he enjoyed that! After church we went out to eat with my mom then we dropped Colby off with her. Austin and I were going to the Rascal Flatts concert. Austin and I were able to enjoy a childless relaxing afternoon.
















We really enjoyed the concert. We saw Luke Bryan and Rascal Flatts both put on a very good show. We were fortunate to have "club level" seats so we got to eat at the good food stands before the concert. The seats were also more spacious and the crowd was calmer which was good. We didn't get home until after midnight so that combined with the time change we were both so tired. I knew I probably wouldn't be able to get up and go to bootcamp. I hate I didn't go but I wanted to sleep plus I wanted to enjoy the morning with Austin and Colby since Austin goes back to work tomorrow and Colby goes back to school.
















We have had a good day since we picked Colby up. We spent a lot of time outside working in the flower beds then all took naps. I don't think we will do much the rest of they day just hang out here and play since we were gone pretty much all weekend!
