Knoebels

Sunday Grammy, Poppy, Noah and Mommy went to Knoebels!  This was Noah's very first trip there!  Aunt Joann, Tony, Val, Sue, and Antonio also came along.  Noah and Antonio had a BLAST riding all the rides!  It was a beautiful day to go, and that park is so nice, with so much shade to!  It was a great day!  The kids rode some rides, then we had some lunch, then rode some more rides.  We walked through the museum there, and Antonio panned for some gems, while everyone else took a break!  Then we got some french fries and a soda and headed out around supper time!  I really had a great day!  A second best weekend I have had in a while and I couldn't be happier to see my little man having so much fun! 

You ask him what his favorite ride was, he says Big green tractor!

They loved it!

Vall wanted to take Antonio, Tony wanted to take him to....



So I said Tony take Noah and you both can be happy!



making me sick!  I thought they were suppose to be slow and steady?!

touching the Ice pole!

Fishin' for Frogs won him a Turtle container and a motorcycle!

Val was a good sport and took Noah on this fast, spinning rocket ride!  I would have so gotten sick!

I only had two incidents of Noah being umm 2 1/2 and not listening!  One of which was when we first got there, and were getting out of the car and getting unpacked and ready to go into the park.  He started running, and it scared me because we were in the parking lot, it was just about opening time, we were in the Handicapped spaces because my Aunt rode with us, so it was busy and I started running, and tripped landed on my face (not literally) and so today I feel like I have been beat up!  It stopped him in his tracks though, and the other time was when we stopped to eat lunch.  I think that him being in daycare makes him not afraid of strangers because of seeing so many different teachers and parents coming in and out.  I don't know.  But we are going to start cracking down now!

I had so much fun and can't wait to go back!  The park is so nice!  We had a blast even my Dad I think had fun! 

Zoo America/Birthdays/Picnic at the Park

Saturday July 21, my Aunt Joann and Uncle Joe celebrated their 60th birthday!  They are my Mom's siblings, my Aunt we see and talk to often, she's close.  My uncle however lives farther away so we don't see him as much.  We went to my Aunts house to celebrate with her on Saturday, and then Sunday my Uncles party was!

who knew Giant could make Strawberry filled cakes??  It was good to!

Then after cake, and talking of having nothing else to do for the rest of our Saturdays' we thought heck lets go to the zoo!  The kids will like seeing the animals, it will give us something to do, why not!  So off we went!

found the Slowsky's!

when we were getting a drink they were just coming on, the recycle people!  It was cool and the kids loved it!

Then we left there, and decided we would stop grab something to eat and go to the park and have a picnic!  It was so much fun!  The kids wanted nothing to do with stopping to eat, but they did end up eating their pizza, on the run!  They are too busy 2 year old boys what can I say!

see they did stop to eat! 

no fear!

Sometimes I had to wonder who had more fun, the kids or the adults!

We had a awesome time, didn't leave there until after 7! Then we got home to find another surprise in the yard set up! 

My Dad had gotten that at my Grandfather's Estate Sale, and that was over a year ago now and we kept forgetting about it!  The boy is part fish, part mexican jumping bean!  It was great, Noah fell asleep in record time, like 5 minutes when I took him back to bed!  He was beat!

Sunday I had to work 8-4, so Grammy and Poppy watched Noah for me.  They went to Aunt Chrissy and Aunt Danielle's for waffles and turkey bacon for breakfast and visited with them and Parker for the day until it was time to go to Uncle Joe's birthday party!
I just headed straight there after I got off work, it was Luau theme, fun!  Noah was running around having fun and annoying the little boys that live behind my Uncle! The one boy said "Oh here HE comes again." when he ran back there.  It was hilarious.  Seriously, you don't have a fence, you are two boys playing on a swing set, and he's a boy what did you think would happen?!  Apparently my Mom said their Mom wasn't the nicest looking person either, so thankfully after the 5th time he was back there he didn't go back again!
I had a nice evening, I wish I wouldn't have had to work, because I would have loved to see my nephew today, but I gotta do what I gotta do!Bills don't pay themselves!

I hope everyone had a great weekend as well!
