Our Fun Weekend

The weekend started off a little disappointing but turned out to be a great weekend anyway.  Andrew and I were excited about having a friend we met on our Guatemala mission trip and his girlfriend over for dinner on Friday.  We were anxious for the rest of the family to meet them and just to catch up.  It has been 3 months since the trip.....unbelievable!  Unfortunately, with all the bugs going around we had to reschedule.  I had strep (started meds on Thurs) but was feeling good and she was having a sore throat and thinking about leaving work early.  So we decided a delay was in order! We were super bummed because we were anxious to see them, but hopeful everyone will be better so we can do it again soon!

 
 


Saturday....We went to the fair!!!

 
(Debra that picture is for you.....we almost brought you some....but knew they wouldn't be good by the time we got to your house....but we thought about you :)
 
 
We ate...
The kids had burgers and hot dogs for lunch and shared some chili cheese fries.
 
I had corn on the cob....okay two.....and it was G-O-O-D!

 
The kids loved the food....

 
Icee's, Carmel Apples, Cotton Candy....

 
Fried Oreo's

 
Ice Cream

 
Andrew had a Chocolate Krispy Kreme Cheeseburger.....but he ate the whole thing before I could get a picture!
 
 
We also walked through the exhibit halls!

 
Got lots of pictures



Met some "princesses"
 
Rode lots of rides!
 
 
Begged to play the carnival games.....I said no.
I have issues that stem from childhood with carnival games.
Really.
 
 
 
 
We really had a fantastic day!  So much fun!
 
We were there for 7 hours.
The kids didn't complain much at all.  A few "my feet hurt"  on the way to the car....and
"I'm starving's" (which is my pet peeve....because they are NOT starving) but they didn't whine for things and they were patient with each other and they were very enjoyable to spend the day with. 
Lots of Fun!
 
Sunday we woke up, got ready for church, and then Sophie and Andrew came down complaining of stomach aches and sore throats.
 
So Randy and the little ones went to church and I took Andrew and Soph to the doctor.
Sophie was positive for strep....again!
That is twice this month!  Poor Baby!
 
Andrew was negative but they are going to culture it....so we'll see!
 
Praying everyone else stays well!
 
Then Sunday afternoon the 3 little ones went to a birthday party, which was fun and then we came home made English muffin pizzas for dinner and let the kids watch a movie with Big A while we ran out on a quick coffee date with the Mangums!
 
Ready for another week!
