Labor day weekend fun!

Well, we had quite the busy Labor day weekend!

Friday night we went to the Kansas City Irish Festival at Crown Center.  Lots of good food and music and we got Javan an all evening pass to the inflatable jumping rides.  It was great because we  went with some new friends Adam and Angela (I babysit for their baby, Harrison) and its nice to begin to develop a friendship with them.  He had a BLAST.

Saturday morning, I already blogged about Angela and I went farmers marketing and Javan and Lance went to the home depot workshop.  Afterwards Javan went to our new babysitter's house, Nancy.  Nancy has a little daughter named Alex and a small daycare in her home so they played and played and did crafts and I was really happy to have Javan there while we went to Lance's friends wedding.  The wedding was a golf theme and it was on a golf course.  They had the most spectacular weather for an outdoor wedding and it was, of course, beautiful!  After the cake cutting at the reception, Lance and I left and went for a walk around the golf course... a looong walk... in the dark...didn't really think that one through. haha. But we had fun (even thought we got a *little* bit lost on the paths :-)  It was so nice to have some time to talk and enjoy the quiet.

Sunday was housework day :-) Lance put vents in our soffits while I stood at the bottom of the REALLY tall ladder (like I'm going to actually be able to do anything if her fell...haha)  Then we touched up some paint and Lance painted our mailbox. The exterior of the house is really looking nice now.

Monday we went to the Renaissance festival and met up Shane and Shana there.  Sooo fun and the weather was perfect!  On the way back we decided to skip the home cooked meal and hit Ruby Tuesdays.  We were pleasantly surprised to find out that between 3-6 everyday its 1/2 price appetizers.  So, we got a nice meal for only $15 including the tip!!!

Today Chad picked up Javan, so its just me and Harrison :-) I've already had the highlight of my day when Javan gave me a hug goodbye he sweetly whispered in my ear "I agape love you, mommy" Which isn't something Javan always says to me... its like he knew I needed to hear that today :-)

Now, off to cleaning and laundry....

I will post some pics soon.  My waterbottle leaked in my bag at the festival yesterday and ruined our brand new camera!  Can't believe it! So, we have to take it back to the store today and hope we can return it.  When we get a new camera, I will post pics.  In the meantime I have a few i can post that are from our phones.
