One Active Day, One Not

Saturday turned into more of a active day than we planned, or honestly could of planned.  The only thing on our calender was a birthday party for one of our friend’s son. That quickly changed when I got a text from my friend, Jessica, wondering if we were interested in joining her and her son at Springdale Farm.  Dagny and I decided to go, while Craig stayed home and did some yard work.

She did this a lot.

On our way home from our outing Dagny fell asleep and had a power nap.  I was very excited about this because I knew that we still had a busy day ahead of us.  We got home had lunch and rested before we headed out for Jacob’s birthday party at the Clubhouse Fun Center.

After eating, opening birthday presents, and cake the kids were able to ride go-karts, play miniature golf, and video games. The first stop was the go-karts.  From what I saw I think Craig was as excited about riding them as much as Dagny.

Then, Dagny played her first round of miniature golf. She’s still super young for it, but she loved the idea.

First lesson

She is very independent.  She didn’t want further instructions on how to play.

When Dagny used up all her tokens and picked out something with her tickets, we headed over to our friend’s house, Dan and Denise.  Denise had knee surgery last week, so we thought we would visit with her and the rest of the family.  This gave the opportunity for Dagny to get together with her little buddy, Danny. We ordered some take-out and enjoyed some wonderful company.  By, the time we took our last bite of dinner, Dagny told us she wanted to go home.  Little girl was beat.  We did everything possible to make sure she wouldn’t fall asleep in the car, it worked!  Got home, bath, story, and sleepy land.  Of course, she was up by 6:30 the next morning. :-/

Did you notice that Dagny is wearing jeans and a hoodie?  Yeah, because it’s been actually fall here. Don’t get me wrong  I love that I can have my windows open all day, but I do wish we can get into our pool.  Someday soon I hope!

Sunday, was a relaxing day at home.  We did walk over to our local farmers market and got some fruits and veggies.  To our pleasant surprise our local Fire Department was there letting the kids sit in trucks.

She loved this thing

She was trying to figure out how it was talking and moving.

The rest of the day was hanging out at home, playing in the backyard, and BBQ.

Before I forget.  Dagny finished Preschool last week.  She is now in summer camp and will be starting Pre-K in September. I didn’t expect the emotional reaction that I felt when all her folders and projects were in her cubby for us to bring home.  It hit me like a ton of bricks that she is getting so big.  And, I have to go through this every year.
