Fun Weekend

So, Phil actually had the ENTIRE weekend off! It was great! So Friday we packed up all the kids and headed to BLUEBELL! WHOO! I have been dying to go there forever! So we drive up there and the kids are so excited. We buy our tickets and have lunch on the grass, and every couple of minutes Annabelle asks if we can get our ice cream yet. We keep telling her it's at the end of the tour. Finally we finish lunch then head to the gift shop. We got the kids each a pencil, of their choice, and a ruler to go with it. Phil got me a cowbell and key chain and a pink pencil. :) By then it's time to line up to head inside. We get inside and they are making Belles favorite ice cream, strawberry. I think she quit paying attention at that point and was just waiting to get downstairs again to get some strawberry ice cream. We saw them make ice cream sandwiches and the little tubs of ice cream to send to the schools. Gwen even pointed out that our tour guide and I were wearing the same watch. So,it was finally time to go get the highly anticipated ice cream. All the kids (well we picked Williams) got to pick their flavour. I'm sure you can guess what Belle had, Gwen had dutch chocolate, I started with cookie dough then ended up swapping for Phil's Krazy Kookie Dough. It was much fun. Annabelle was so excited that there were real strawberries in her ice cream!
Saturday we all went to a birthday party some of our friends were throwing. The kids had tons of fun, because everyone thought they were adorable. William ended up in the hot tub, fully clothed. Lucky for him the other little boy that was there wore the same size clothes and his mommy gave him some. We even got to witness a little boy get his tooth pulled out. It was lots of fun!
Sunday we had church then we met Phil's parents for lunch at Red Robin, for Phil's birthday. OMG so GOOOOD! We let the kids ride to the cabin with their grand parents (much joy for my kids!) and we all headed that way to hang out and have cake.

All in all a really great weekend! But now, on to the last couple days of class and TONS of homework!
