Busy Weekend

What a busy weekend we had at our house. It started out on not such a good note as the D/C football team lost their game on Friday night. It was not really so much of a surprise as the team we played was one of the best teams in the state but when we were ahead 8-6 at half time you get your hopes up. Annika was not that thrilled with the game and the whole first week of school got to her. She kept asking to go home the whole 2nd half of the game.

Saturday we were busy preparing for Marcus's surprise 18th birthday party we had that evening. Annika was so excited that she had to keep a secret!! And we pulled it off and he had no clue what was going on so it was great. We had a hayride and bonfire at a friend's home for his party. Annika had a blast because her cousins came over for the party so she had a blast playing with them.

Sunday we were off to the Twins game. The tickets weren't so great as we were in the cheap seats but I think everyone had fun. Annika took advantage of the time to take a nap. She still must have been feeling the effects of the busy week. She slept through about the last 3 innings. Mom and Dad switched off with holding her so both of us had numb legs when it was all over but I was glad she got the chance to rest.

Yesterday was her first full day of Kindergarten and she had a great time. She was very excited to go back to school and daycare again. She had fun telling me all about her day in the van on the way home. I was very pleased on how much she was able to tell me about her day.
