Emily's Visit

Dear Abigail,

Emily has been begging Mimi to bring her up here for a weekend and we finally made it happen for her.  Mimi and Em came up on Friday afternoon, just in time to head to Mexican with us.  After Mexican, we showed Emily how to dance, or, well, she showed us how to dance on Just Dance Disney.  She's not too shabby at those dance moves.  You showed off your "Tinkerbell Dance" and Mommy showed her the "Follow the Leader" dance.  Saturday morning was supposed to start off with a basketball game, BUT, it snowed (again!!) and the game got canceled.  Mimi was pretty sad that the game was canceled, but I don't think you blinked an eye at it.  Instead, you, Emily and Ellie headed outside to play in the snow!!  Aunt Steph even ventured out there to help make a real snowman this time. 

 

After lunch, we put Katie Bug down for a nap and left her with dad while we headed to some big girl activities, including the trampoline park!!!  I think the pictures can do the talking here...

 We made it to the "little kids" trampoline even though Emily wasn't exactly a little kid and you became obsessed with getting the balls!!

 And would even take then from complete strangers.  It was all fun and games though... we think...

 

 and until you decided to act like you had a baby in your belly!!!

 Then in your mouth!

 Mommy even decided to jump a little with you...

 but you got upset because you said I hurt your wrist.

 So you pouted...

 We only had a few minutes left to jump anyway, so we just let you pout.  I think you were more exhausted than upset, so you deserved the break!
After the park, we headed back home to meet Daddy and Kate at Mellow Mushroom!!!  As always, there was a long wait, but you Daddy and Emily were able to win all three of you ducks to play with, a favorite activity while waiting for pizza.  After dinner, we headed home and played a little more dancing and let you and Emily play a bit more by yourself.
On Sunday morning, we woke up and jumped in the car to get donuts!!!  Now, Mommy has never just hopped in the car to head to get donuts.  It's just not our thing, or it wasn't our thing.  I'm pretty sure it will become our thing though.  I will say, though, Sunday is not the best day to just hop in the car, pajamas and all, and head to Krispy Kreme in Cool Springs.  Why you ask?  Because everyone is there grabbing a quick donut before church!!! That's right, in dress up clothes and all, and here we were in our pjs!  Ha!!!  That's okay, we had fun and man alive were they delicious!!!!!

 After doughnuts, you three got baths and showers while Mommy and Mimi tried to walk off a few of those donuts we ate, then Mimi and Em had to head home.  We had to get ready because we were going over to Ellie's to watch the Super Bowl!!
That's right, we finished off a great weekend eating yummy junk food and watching football, or, well, you played in the playroom all night, but still, a fun night!
So glad Emily could come and visit us and I hope she had as much fun as we did!!!!  Love you!
