This past weekend we went to St. Joseph and Wathena to spend time with Jeremy's family. Friday night we went to Savannah's football game, which of course they won and Maddox was enthralled by the marching band as usual. My kids loved Aunt Shelby's aviator sunglasses in the car on the way up there.
Saturday morning Jeremy ran a 5k for Wathena's Fall Festival. He finished 3rd overall and won his age with 18:11.
Saturday afternoon we spent at the festival. Maddox rode 3 or 4 rides over and over again. There really weren't anymore for her age.
Maddox also got some fairy wings from the clowns. A grimacing smile from her... maybe because it was raining on us? Just a drizzle so it wasn't bad, but we got a little wet.
Sunday afternoon James and Angie, Gabbie and Hayden came over to cookout at Grandma Barb's. Here all her grandkids together. A rarity that will hopefully happen a little more often now that we live in Iowa. Sunday evening we went to the parade in Wathen and got a ton MORE candy. (5 parades in 2 months... I will NOT be buying Halloween candy.)
Monday morning we went to the Patee House Museum where the only thing Maddox liked was the old carousel. It is very pretty. This might be the first time I've let Hadlee ride one.
Then we spent Monday afternoon at Krug Park where Maddox wanted to explore ALL the castle stairs. The park itself she wasn't so impressed with. It is a little cruddy nowadays. But it was still pretty cool to take her to places I grew up and had so many memories there. Then the afternoon went downhill from there with Hadlee having diarrhea and no diapers and Jessi rolling in very smelly poo. It was definitely time to go back home!
