Our Wild & Crazy Weekend

Alright, I was just kidding about the 'wild & crazy' part, but we did have fun!

Saturday, Danny's stepdad offered to watch Camden while we did our Walmart shopping. Going to Walmart with an 18-month child, I've found is very challenging. So we readily accepted this offer. I couldn't believe how relaxing it was to go down every aisle without having to wrestle him to stay in the buggy, not having to have a trail of goldfish crackers behind us everywhere we go, not having to go behind him and pick up apple juice bottles that he pushed down..........ahhhhhhhh!! I know you're thinking he might be a holy terror, but really, he isn't. He's just a bit spoiled and adored MAYBE too much by us! I can't help it....I go from being really aggravated with him to thinking he the cutest thing I've ever seen in my whole entire life.

Anyway, David bought him a bubble gun and they spend the whole afternoon making bubbles, playing in dirt, sliding down the slide, and picking up sticks (I don't know why but he loves stacking sticks??!!). Out of all the grandparents, he loves David the best.

This morning Camden & I went to church. I haven't been in several months so I decided this morning being Palm Sunday and all that it would be a good time to start. So off we went. I went to Rose Heights and they were having a special. They had the Longview Symphony Orchestra accompanying them. I was really impressed. It was very beautiful and very professional. Camden fell asleep during some of it, but once he woke up, he really enjoyed the music----especially the drums.

THEN to top that off, Today we got another two hours of child care. Danny's mom watched him and we went over to David's apartment and he fixed us dinner. Salmon, mushrooms & onions, stuffed mushrooms, wild rice and bagettes. He is a terrific cook and the meal was spectacular! If David ever needed a place to live, I would let him live with us RENT FREE if he agrees to cook....he is just all around terrific! Besides Danny & Camden, he is one of my favorite people I know.

Other than that we did the regular routine.....worked in the yard, cleaned the house, planted flowers, picked up mac N cheese out of the carpet (another 18 month old thing!), and played with Camden. Yup, we are some WILD & CRAZY kids!
