A weekend at the "Fort"

The boys and I went to the "Fort" for the first time by ourselves. We had a great time and the trip there and back was thankfully uneventful. We went to mom's work to show off Guy and the rest of the tribe. Then, we went to visit with Robyn and her clan. The boys had a great time playing with Greyson. I can not get over how big Hailey is. It seems like yesterday she was 2 years old.

That night we went to Papa Mickey and Bamaw's house. Papa Mickey took them walking all over his property. The boys really enjoyed playing with Papa Mickey and Bamaw, and they love exploring Papa's new front porch.

The next day Guy hung out with Bamaw and Papa Mickey while the rest of us went to the ABF picnic. We meet up with Nana and Papa Lewis as well as Aunt Becca and Dean Bean. We all had a great time. There was a couple of clowns making balloon animals, which stop Thomas in his tracks. He was terrified of the clowns. He put on his serious face and stepped away from them. They received two helium balloons which they played with the rest of the time we were at Nana's.

After the picnic we hung out for awhile at Nana's house and watch the Care Bears and let Thomas take a much needed nap. We were adventurous enough to go to Western Sizzling, and had a great time. We then went over to Uncle Casey and Aunt Becca's house for a while. Thomas and Dean played wonderfully together, and Phillip loves playing with Uncle Casey's superhero toys and playing the Wii.

The next day we left pretty early, to get back home. We did not get a chance to do our Sunday visit with Theresa because she was at a scrap booking retreat.

On the way home, Phillip said wouldn't be neat if we lived down the street from Mrs. Robyn, and we could just go over to her house and play whenever we wanted. I agree that would be fun!
