Hello Everyone! Riley's great-grandparents, on my side, came to see us this week. We had such an awesome time with them! We hung out at my aunt's house every night swimming, eating, visiting, eating...did I mention my aunt is an amazing cook? We also took my grandpa to the circus with us, which was so incredibly fun and special. I know Riley will never remember it, but I will ALWAYS remember it. He had such a good time, and Riley put on quite the little how herself! She laughed and clapped and played right along almost the whole time. However, since the circus didn't even start until 7:30 (her bedtime) we did lose her to her sweet dreams about 45 minutes before the show was over. But, it was still so fun to see her clap and dance and sing along with everything. She pointed out things that she liked and was generally impressed overall.
On the fourth of July, we went to the mountain with her Grandma and Papa to see the little parade up there. First of all, it was great simply because it was about 30 degrees cooler up there than it is down here- so nice! Second, it was good to hang out with Ty's parents for awhile and give her some time with them. We had fun and she really enjoyed throwing rocks into the pond. That afternoon, we went back to my aunt's house for more swimming and had a bbq there. We saw some fireworks last night, but the big show we were supposed to see was delayed for nearly an hour and it just got too late (and hot) to be waiting, so we all headed home. On the way back to our house, they finally started and Ty and I pulled off to the side of the road and watched them. Not great seats, but not terrible. There was a lot of cloud coverage anyway that made it slightly difficult. (Riley missed the fireworks completely- this is one worn out little girl!)
Today, my grandparents left to go home and I declared Ty, Roz and Riley day, since I felt we hadn't seen much of each other, just the three of us, lately. We went to the Children's Museum this morning. I think Riley enjoyed it. It was okay, but I'm looking for a bigger and better one to go to. Then we went and grabbed some lunch. Of course, she was OUT by the time we got home and nearly 3 hours later, she still is. I can't blame her though, I just woke up from a pretty decent 2 hour nap myself, and Ty's still sleeping. I guess we are all really worn out.
So you can imaging, that I have tons of pics coming. I still haven't figured out how to get my text in between pics. Janae- I know you told me but I think I need written instructions, so if you get a chance...
Thanks everyone and I hope you're all having a fabulous weekend!
