We did have a fun time last weekend!
Friday night we stayed in and watched the movie Mr. Popper's Penguins. It was very cute, although I probably enjoyed it more than Luke. He kept asking where the penguins were and once they came on, he had sort of already moved on and started playing with his toys.
Paige had some 6-month pictures taken on Saturday morning. I was a little worried about how they were going to go since she had a terrible cough and a runny nose, but she did amazing - full of smiles!!! At first, I wasn't sure if Wally and Luke needed to come along, but I was so glad that they did. The main reason for all of those smiles was Luke! As long as Paige could see him, she was happy. :) I can't wait to see how the pictures turned out!
On Saturday afternoon, Wally and Luke headed to Musher Mania at the Monee Reservoir. There were dog sled demonstrations and other activities for the kids. I made Wally take a camera along to get a few pictures. They had a good time!
Ice bowling
After church on Sunday, we decided to go bowling. I called the bowling alley in downtown Frankfort to see if they had any open lanes and the owner said he was booked from 1:30-4:30, but if we came right now he could give us a deal. I had no idea what that really meant, and we had never been to this place before. So the bowling alley is in the upstairs part of an old building. When you walk through the door you walk in to this huge bar/billiards area. The owner was the only one there (we got there about 11:45 even though they didn't really open until 12) and he lead us through a door to the bowling alley - 6 lanes in a totally retrostyle area. It was so neat! Right away he gave us our shoes and a light ball for Luke and left the room. We had the place to ourselves - it was really cool! The guy came back in a little later and took Luke and I behind the lane to see how everything worked. I think he said everything was from 1957. It ended up being a really fun hour of private bowling. Luke really enjoyed himself and Paige slept through most of it. Thankfully I had my phone to take some pictures! (I am not sure if the videos are going to work or not for everyone...)
Wally and I were both off on Monday (thank you MLK). We headed to the daycare for a group picture and then we to Barnes & Noble to hang out. This is one of my favorite things to do with Luke when it is cold out, but Wally had never come with us before. We drank some mochas and hot chocolates and read some books and played with the train table. We ate lunch at Potbelly's and then headed home to relax for the rest of the day. Love those long weekends!!!
Hopefully it won't be so long between posts next time :) And I WILL change the header sometime this weekend - I must!
