Friday night we went to the Strawberry Days Rodeo. My younger sister Brittani came with us. Linkin got his first bloody nose. :( He was running and fell right on his little nose, but he cheered up quick. Titan wore a cowboy costume to the Rodeo so he could look like the real cowboys. After the rodeo we went to the carnival. Linkin loved all the lights and action! Titan went on a few rides. He loved this huge slide they had. I took him down the slide once and I was seriously nervous when we were climbing up the stairs to get to the top of this huge slide. I was thinking 'Im not too sure if I want little Titan to go down this big thing.' Sure enough when we got to the top he was not scared at all. He actually ended up spending all of the rest of our tickets to go down the slide over and over. Nick took him down all the other times after that. Once going down it was enough for me. :) I took Linkin on the merry go round. He liked being on it but he didn't want to stay on his horse. So I just held him on the merry go round and he was laughing so hard. Having kids at carnivals makes you feel like a little kid again. Seeing how excited they get and how much fun they are having is such a great feeling. I am so thankful to be a mommy and be able to take the boys to do fun things.
On Saturday morning we went to the Parade with my mother-in-law, Brittani, and my Sister-in-law Emily and her 3 kids. Emily went early and got prime spots for the parade. :) The kids were right up at the road and could see everything and catch candy that people threw off of the parade floats. :) Titan was talking about how he saw Cosmo the Cougar for the rest of the day after we got home. Linkin really liked the marching bands in the Parade. I had to hold Linkin close to me because he wanted to run off in the parade and be in it! :) He is such a little busy body lately, and I love it! I never ever get bored, that's for sure!!
After the parade we went over to my mom's house and the kids played in her yard and ate way too many Popsicles. After my mom's we went home and while we waited for Daddy to get home the kids played in the little pool outside. That night when Nick got home we went over to his friends house for a BBQ. The family has a little boy just a little older than Titan so the 2 boys played the entire time and had alot of fun. Titan did not want to leave their house and the next morning he asked when we were going back over there. They also had a sandbox so of course Linkin was in that the entire time. When we got home I scrubbed sand out of his hair in the tub. :) The boys slept very well that night!! :) (they fell asleep right when we put them to bed and slept til after 10am the next morning - it was great!!!) Then Sunday(FATHERS DAY!!!) :) :) :) We let Daddy sleep in, had breakfast, Titan and I went to Starbucks and got a treat for Daddy, then we went to my in-laws for a delicious dinner. I ate way too much but it was worth it. Linkin LOVES strawberries:)! He was covered in strawberry by the time we left. The boys got to play with their cousins over there too. It was a great weekend!! I hope all of you Dad's had a great day. Thank you to: Nick!! You are such a wonderful Father and Husband, I am blessed to have you!! I LOVE YOU!!! and a special HAPPY FATHERS DAY to my Dad who is always there for me. I love you so much Pops!!!
*What a weekend!!!*
