A Great Weekend!

Last weekend began on Friday with a fantastic day with my family.  The Joneses and my dad drove down to spend the day in Snoqualmie at A Day Out with Thomas.  It was SO much fun watching my niece and nephews have such a great time.  It's amazing to think that next year we'll have a little one that can join his/her cousins for this fun day out!

We started out with the train ride.






Then it was off to see Thomas!



Jacked was mesmerized by the steam engines.




Then it was off to do some Thomas stamping.




Jack quickly found the train tables.  Luckily there were plenty of trains to go around because he did a little hoarding!






While Jack continued playing with the trains Emily got a Thomas tattoo.




As everyone began to get tired and hungry we decided to get some fun balloons and then head back to our house for lunch.  Emily chose a pink sword and Jack chose a flower with a ladybug on top!  I love that they each have their own unique personalities!


I had no idea there were so many great activities for the kids to participate in besides the train ride.  This was definitely worth the money and was a very fun day!


Friday afternoon we headed over to Zillah for the 3rd annual Allan Family Reunion.  Zach grew up with Ty and his family, and although we are not family, we are always treated like family at this reunion.  We always have such a great time with these fun peeps.  Sadly, I left my camera sitting by the front door this year. :o(  You'll just have to take my word for it that we had a great time and ate great food!


Sunday when we arrived home our glider chair for the nursery was waiting for us.  We have been researching and looking for a glider chair for the nursery for several months.  It's been agonizing trying to decided on a chair, reading reviews, deciding how much to spend, etc., etc.  We finally decided on a chair I found at Target.com.  I was VERY nervous about ordering a chair online that we hadn't been able to sit in, let alone one from Target.  I've had such an ordeal with them dealing with my registry and returning duplicate items.  However, after reading almost all 55 reviews we went ahead and ordered the chair.  I'm SO happy to say that we LOVE it!  It finally feels like the nursery is all put together and ready for little Baby M!









Zach did all of the assembly while I read the directions.  He's so amazing; he put together all of the furniture in our nursery!  Our nursery is finally complete and we LOVE it!!
