Tuesday we got to meet The Littler One who is absolutely BEAUTIFUL. Then I got to spend most of the day with the original Little One which is always awesome because she's such a good toddler. Plus I really like the Little One's grandma, so bonus!
I don't know why, but for the life of me I cannot remember what I did on Thursday. I had work off though, so I hope it was something fun.
Friday I got up super early to watch the hot air balloons from our parking lot. While I was waiting for them to appear, I took advantage of the fact that I am rarely up at 6am and watched the sun rise.
I also watched the early morning snails making their way across the lawn.
Finally the balloons appeared! This isn't a great picture, but my digital camera only cost $60, so I really can't complain. They had a pig balloon and a Smoky the Bear balloon this year. I sat on the comfy chair that somebody left in our parking lot and watched them.
Then I went back to bed. When I woke up, we went with Mrs S and the Little One to the Freedom Festival, which was more fun than I remembered it being last year. It was really hot though!
For dinner we went to a BBQ at my parent's house and made Cordon Bleu sandwiches. It was my sister's birthday and that is what she requested. (For those of you who don't know, 3 of the 4 girls in our family are born on holidays) Big 19! I remember 19. . .sometimes I'm really surprised when I realize I'm not still 19.
That night we went with the Hansons to watch fireworks by the MTC. Thanks for saving us a space! Evie was remarkably good-natured for being up so late.
