Labor Day Weekend

We started this long weekend cleaning house and mowing the lawn.  We left Sunday after church for Evansville.  We took the kids to see an Otter’s baseball game.  The kids seemed to enjoy the game, but honestly I don’t know if they even watched one single pitch. Smile

They had fun eating their snacks and playing with the mascot that kept coming around.

Addyson made a friend during the rain delay over popsicles and balloons.  Grant and I even got a little bored but were entertained by the coach and umpire.  Their constant fighting made for an interesting game.

We did leave during the rain delay and went to get some real supper.  Then we headed back the hotel for story from Daddy and then the kids went to bed!

The next morning we ate breakfast at the hotel and got ready for the zoo.  Both kids seemed to be most excited about the animals that they could see around the house, like deer, turtles, and donkeys.

Hayden did like visiting the otters.  I have a picture of him when he was much smaller at this same spot.

Having the kids wear the same color shirt was not planned but was helpful since they are starting to think they can be independent. Smile

Grant almost matched as well.  We had a wonderful visit to the zoo and then a nice lunch out.  While I wanted to do some shopping the kids were just to tired and cranky so we drove home while they slept.  I Love long weekends!
