Our super busy, fun filled day!

Today was one of those go, go, go days where we weren't home all day. I like having those kinds of days every once in awhile, as long as we are doing fun stuff. This morning Layla and I went to Jeannette's house so we could visit baby Blake. He is the cutest little boy and getting so big. He's only 6 weeks old and 3 month clothes are already fitting snug on him. He's going to be a football player, that's for sure! Jeannette is doing such a good job with him, he's one lucky little boy.

After that Layla and I met up with Jessica, Ana, and Sarah at the Date Festival. It was such a beautiful but hot day outside, I think it was about 80 degrees out. As soon as we got out of the car, we were all instantly sweating. So much for winter! The fair was a ton of fun and that was probably our last time going this year. Military got in for free and when I showed my ID card the guy said "you deserve much more than this!" Ya, that's about all it takes for me to get teary eyed these days. Our first stop once we got in was the petting zoo, Layla's favorite!

After that we walked around and headed for the rides. The girls play really good together, not to mention they are both so stinkin' cute. They went on the carousel, train, and some kangaroo ride about 5 times, they didn't want to get off of it. They just kept laughing and laughing.

This picture just makes me laugh. The second we walked into the fair, Ana saw those chairs that massage your feet. She kept saying she wanted to sit in the "blue" chair and when we walked past them, she would get upset that she didn't get to. After this happened a few times, we finally stopped so she could sit in one and when she did, she didn't want to get out. That was the highlight of Ana's trip to the fair, the "blue" chair! LOL

The petting zoo and rides really wore us out and since it was so dang hot outside we were all in need of a drink. So snack time it was! Cheese fries, hot dogs, and Sprite really hit the spot. After that it was photo booth time and while we were waiting for our pictures to be developed the girls were playing on the stairs. Layla has become such a little model! She poses and smiles and gets mad when I put the camera down or try to take a picture of anyone else. Actually, she hasn't become a model, she's become a diva, that's more like it. The fair was a blast and I'm so glad we got to go with Jessica and Ana, we love those girls so much!

If that wasn't busy enough, after the fair we met up with Desirae and Logan at Pet's Mart. Logan kept climbing everything and Layla would be right there, helping him get down. It was so funny, Layla kept getting worried that Logan would hurt himself so she would be right at the bottom holding her hands up to him.

Then we got to go over to Desirae and Logan's new apartment for the first time, it was gorgeous! Desirae and I talked, gossiped and made dinner while the kids jumped on the couches and made a mess with balls, books, and Buzz Light Year. Desirae made the best stuffed bell peppers (which I am still waiting for the recipe, Miss Desirae!!!) and when it was time to do the dishes, the kids got in on the action. Bubbles were flying everywhere and water flooded the counters but they had huge smiles on their faces and that's what's important here. It was so nice to have dinner with two of our favorite people. Thursdays are our nights, it's a date! :)
