Weekend Fun!!

On Friday night, we had family happy hour at Nova. It had been a little while since we'd gone there and enjoyed their yummy food, and it was a nice Friday night together.

On Saturday morning, we checked out the farmer's markets and ran a few errands.

Amelia went to sleep after lunch and got a great nap in. She is getting over a cold, so she really appreciates her naps.

We'd planned to all go down to the Crew game, but a rain storm was coming. So, we decided that Chris would go with a friends, and Amelia and I would stay warm and dry for the night.

Beforehand, we went to Graffiti Burger (yum!!) with Joey and his parents... because, you know... a weekend wouldn't be the same without seeing Joey!!

They played peek-a-boo (flirting??) across the table:

And then the guys went to the game, and the ladies and kiddos hung out a bit longer before heading home.

On Sunday morning, we were all set to go to church, when Amelia decided she wanted a morning nap. Oh well.

After she got up, she and I ran some errands while Daddy got some work done.

After a decent afternoon nap, we went to a nice party hosted by Chris's former phD advisor.

Amelia was checking out the toys in the yard next door:

She has officially ordered this toy for Christmas. My camera was malfunctioning.... I wish I could share with you the GIANT smile she had while bouncing on this!!

And she ran around, looking for more trouble to get into:

She figured out the neighbor boy's rocket:

It was a great night catching up with old colleagues/friends.

On Monday, we had an exciting dinner date with Grandma Cathy and Grandpa Larry, who were passing through from a trip to Cleveland!

Amelia colored:

And played peek-a-boo with Grandpa:

And made goofy faces at Grandma:

And then she got awfully tired:

So we gave hugs goodbye and headed home:

Thanks for the visit Grandma and Grandpa!!
