Fun Weekend

The kids and I met Anne and Nolan for lunch at Panera on Friday...it was nice to catch up on things with them since we hadn't gotten together in a few weeks and then Friday night was PF Chang's and Graeter's with the Joneses...Mom and Dad were kind enough to watch all the kiddos for us...we had a great time.

After getting in late last night, Jake deciding to wake up at 5 this morning, piles of dirty laundry, and weedeating and edging that James needed to get done...well, we decided to go to Holiday World for the day. We had a great time...we rode rides, we drank tons of free Pepsi and lemonade, had ice cream (Dippin' Dots for James...he loves them), and Jake won a stuffed Spiderman and Addi a stuffed monkey at the fishing game...what could be better than that?!?! :) Addi says her favorite thing of the day was the log ride (she and Daddy rode it twice)...apparently she loves a big drop...I'm not too big on it. Jake's favorite thing was the merry-go-round and the airplane ride. He and I also rode the little cars and he got to steer while James and Addison did the Howler (a mini roller coaster). She definitely takes after her Daddy when it comes to riding...she loves it...I on the other hand got very sick-feeling after riding the Eagle's Flight (some big bird things that go around in a circle - believe me...it was worse than it sounds).

It's been a great weekend so far and hopefully to top it all off...naps tomorrow afternoon after church! :)
