Weekend at Grandma's

carousel kids

Boz was on a week long camping trip this last week, so the kids and I went to stay at my parents house while he was gone so I could get a little extra help. My parents are so amazing with the kids, and my mom always has loads of fun activities planned for us when we come over. ALSO, they have this amazing little gym at their apartment complex, and since they're both off work right now, I was able to go workout anytime I wanted! We all got so spoiled.

one of the first nights we were there my parents took us out for pizza!
"smile pretty, Clementine!"

"I fucking LOVE coloring!"
Bowie's first time in a restaurant! 

after we ate dinner we went next door to a candy shop where I got these adorable buttons!
"Honey Buns" is my favorite :3

The next morning we went to Howarth park

Clementin was SO excited to ride the ponies! 

next we all rode the train!
Bowie and I got the first seat up front.

Granny and Clem were right behind us

only posting this picture because my hair looks amaze.

I GOT TO PET PIGS!!! I RUBBED THEIR FAT LITTLE BELLIES!
This was a huge deal for me. I had real tears in my eyes, and I'm getting all emotional about it now just thinking about it. Pigs have been my favorite animal since I was a  little girl, they are simply the most amazing creatures ever. These piggies are only 3 months old, and I was told they will be around 600 lbs once they turn one! WOW.

"AT DAWN WE RIDE!"

 

we rode the carousel a few times since the kids loved it so much.

 after we got off of the carousel for the last time Clementine started SOBBING! We sat down on a bench to calm her down and we were like "Clementine didn't you have fun today? Didn't you like petting all of the animals, riding the rides, and playing at the park?" and she said "I liked all of that stuff! I'm just sad because we have to LEAVE!" so I reminded her that we took a lot of pictures that she could look at anytime she wanted to remember her time at the park, and that when Daddy got back from his trip we could all go back together. That seemed to cheer her up.

we spent the next day at the pool!

Happy boy loves the water!

a sure sign of a good time is two passed out kids.

Thank you so much to my wonderful parents for taking such good care of us this weekend! We had so much fun, and the kids are loving looking at all of their pictures over and over again!
