Wonderful Weekend!

We took our first real family vacation since the kids have been born this weekend. We had a wonderful time! We didn't do anything overly elaborate but it was plenty. Saturday morning we headed for Adventureland. The kids were overwhelmed with excitement. Especially Kyle! And as a surprise to them we make a pit-stop to pick up their Grandpa Steve who came along with us. Once at the amusement park the kids didn't know where to start first. It took Kyle a little bit to get used to waiting in line and being patient but once they got the hang of how things worked around there, they both did great! We were really proud of how well behaved they were for us. Jenevieve had one small fit that was short lived and the only trouble we had with Kyle was he liked to push and shove a bit. But overall they were troopers. They'd been up since 5:30 am and it was after 9pm when we left the park! And then all they wanted to do was go to the hotel and swim. I couldn't believe they still had energy left! It was after 11pm before they fell asleep. The next morning we went and had breakfast and then they swam a bit more before we had to check-out. After that we went to visit their Grandpa Larry and his girlfriend Joan. We had a really nice visit, watched a movie, ate supper and then headed out. It was just a little after 11pm when we got home last night. Today I'm trying to get caught up on unpacking, washing dirty laundry, etc. All the not so fun stuff of being away. lol But we truly had a great time and I'm glad that our first mini family vacation was such a pleasurable one. I'm going to try to add pictures in a seperate post because it's not letting me in this one. Keep your fingers crossed that it'll work! :)
