the rest of the weekend

Ok people.

Sit back.

It's gonna be a long one.

Ellie and I had a super busy day Saturday.

Chris was home recuperating.

But us girls were out on the town!

We started with some breakfast, to fuel us up.

Have you had Paneras jalepeno ham and cheddar bagel sandwich?

Um, it's good.

 Then we played a little soccer.

 Then we hit up a little neighborhood pop up festival.

We painted a rock.

For Daddy.

 And did a little shopping.

Where I scored some cute turquois bangles for $3!

 Then we went to a swim safety class.

(But I didn't get any pics of that.)

Then hit up a bday party.

At the party we:

had a water fight,

 got thirsty,

 found an advantageous spot,

 and hugged the birthday boy.

 Then we went home and had a beer on the front porch.

And as an aside, I love this man.

Love him to pieces.

Love him to the moon and back.

Love him.

Love him.

Love him.

 We slept well that night.

Then Sunday morning Chris wanted to get. out. of. the. house.

And he figured that men who get vasectomies deserve to buy themselves something.

And who was I to argue?

So we headed to Golf Galaxy.

And he retail therapied his little heart out.

Then we went and had some lunch and hit up a park.

At the park we sanded,

 and slid,

 and kissed,

 and made funny faces,

 and rested.

Poor dude was in a little pain here.

 Then we invited ourselves over to Paige and Ken's,

where they served us vojitos,

and homemade pizza.

It was delicious.

 We got to see Nicky P. fresh home from college,

(and the NCAA golf championship, where he was one of 5 college golfers in the nation to get invited, and won freshman of the year.  Yeah.  We're pretty proud of him.)

 After dinner, the ice cream truck came.

 We totally overstayed our welcome.

But that's ok.

We're family.

And it's summer.

Plus, if we hadn't stayed, Paige and I wouldn't have gotten this fantastic picture together.

Ha.

Ok, maybe it's not the best pic.

But I love her.

And wanted to show her off.

So there.

Thanks for a great night P & K.  We had a fantastic time!
