Fun Friday for a Monday....

The gals and I were supposed to have a little fun with some friends while we Moms chatted about some upcoming festivities (more later :) but unfortunately tis the season for the sickies and the other Momma's babies were still under the weather so we had to reschedule. BUT... by 8:30AM we were dressed, ready, hair done and needed SOME PLACE TO GO!!! :) Adventure was calling our names! Off to the big city!

 

We hit up the local Trader Joe's first because who doesn't love their own mini-buggy? (Minnie!!!) and then we went DOWNTOWN!

I introduced Minnie to cobblestone streets...

we watched a crane work and I explained a "floating restaurant" :)

this one just cared about how loud the crane was working over the water :) "Whoa!"

We came home in time for lunch and naps because we had a VERY fun, spontaneous visit from DA'BOYZ!

JJ was jealous of my 90 minute date ~ so he called to see if we'd hang with the boys so he could take his wife out... awwww whatah guy organizing the childcare to take his bride out for supper and have some 1x1 time with her :) Meanwhile at our house...it was sloppy joes for supper with the STRICT instructions... "whoever makes the biggest mess (ON.THEIR.PLATE.) gets to use the CAN of whipped cream FIRST for their ice cream sundae"... Poor CJ... "uh..Yah-Yah... I don't really LIKE to make a mess..." I know buddy... I know. Neither do your Daddy or Grampa :) hee hee hee...

Please note the plate...and please note that his BROTHER WON messiest plate contest!!!

What about the good 'ol days when you "got dressed for dinner" :) and wore a Sleeping Beauty Dress that is 2-3 sizes too small? :)

The crazy at dinner :)

Which lead to DESSERT! ICE CREAM SUNDAES!

and the can of whipped cream :)

I LOVE Minnie's laugh in this picture... it was contagious!

We ended our two hours of jammed in fun night with a movie (Tangled) and...

Husband's famous popcorn of course (per CJ's request)

What a GREAT couple of hours!!!!
