We had an incredible weekend! I took quite a few pictures, but am having trouble with my camera, as you will be able to tell. So, a lot of them didn't turn out well. Shoot!!
It all started Friday morning when Lizzie decided she wanted to be "Simba" for the day! This is what she looked like when we dropped her off at daycare. Quite the interesting look, huh? She also had on her pink glitter flip flops!
Then, on Friday afternoon we had our homecoming parade. Zach rode with the student council from his school. He had fun throwing candy and playing around with his friends. He is the one cheering with his arms in the air! Oh yea, he was feeling better!
After school, we packed our bags and the van and headed to Indiana. We went to the Indiana vs. Michigan State football game. Before the game though, we had to head to TIS like true alumni and purchase some IU "stuff." I have become one of the alumni that I used to make fun of when I worked there!
After the game, which Indiana lost, we tailgated with Aunt Molly, Uncle Chad and friends. The kids had fun running around, playing and getting hot and sticky! Here, Lizzie and her cousin Ben are taking a quick break.
This is Brian and Molly, his sister, playing around.
We stayed overnight with my dad and Karen and had a great time visiting with them. As usual, we spent a lot of time laughing.
On Sunday, we stopped by Molly and Chad's house on our way back to Illinois. We enjoyed some Pizza Express breadsticks, the kids ran and played, and we visited. It was a fun time. We had an unexpected visitor though. Molly was putting up the umbrella on their deck when she found this "friend" hanging out inside. Did I mention that I HATE bats. I think they are nothing more than flying rats!!
At the end of the visit, we tried to get the kids to pose for a quick pic. Wrong time of the day to ask for that. They just wanted to keep playing so this is the best we could get!
What great weekend. . . friends, family, IU football, and Simba!
We are truly blessed!
