Weekend Fun

Dad was out of town for work over the weekend, and while he was definitely missed, Coop and I still had lots of fun!  The best part was that he surprised us by showing up Sunday morning, we didn't expect him home until Monday!

Friday night we watched a few of the sweet girls I used to teach play volleyball.  Coop was still in the womb when I taught them.  Cooper loved watching them, very intrigued by the games.  He sat on my lap the whole time watching and eating his Happy Meal.  Afterwards, we stayed to chat and sweet McKendry played ball (more like chased the ball he kept throwing) with him.  He was all smiles and gave her lots of kisses before we left.

Saturday morning we headed to Keller Fest, just minutes from our house.  It is a big, outdoor event with lots of booths, live entertainment, and carnival rides.  The morning was beautiful and we soaked it all in!

 Hard to believe that is my sensitive child in a bounce house and he climbed in all by himself!  However, he didn't move from this position the whole time :).  There were big kids jumping and he wasn't quite sure what to think!

 Lovin' the bubble machine!

 Of course, had to stop to play some soccer.  Still need to work on that idea that you don't use your hands in this sport :).

 This petting zoo experience was night and day from here a couple months ago.  He was super excited to get him and pet the animals all by himself.   He was even trying to feed the llama!

 He kept saying, "pat, pat, pat, goat."

After a long nap, we headed over to the Fimmens for dinner and to play.  Tom, Meghan, and Cooper all eating dinner outside...they spent a lot of time 'shooing the flies' away. :)   After dinner we went on a walk to the Sno-Cone stand, it was Cooper's first and he loved it!  He was completely silent, refused to share and wanted no help eating it.

After sno-cones the kids were a sticky mess, so Carolyn was gracious enough to let me stick Coop in the tub with her kids and loan us jammies for the night!  After bath, the kids were busy playing Elefun.  Here they are with their nets, trying to catch the butterflies flying out of the Elephant's nose!  A perfect game for this age!!!

A busy couple of days before the downfall of rain the last 24 hours!
