For vacation this year we went to Ohio to visit family and to go to Kings Island. We got up here on Friday and went to Michele's wedding on Saturday. Both kids were so excited to attend a wedding. Reagan's friends had both recently went to one and told her they were fun. The wedding was outside and it was about 95 degrees so it was pretty short. Reagan said "That's all?" I don't really know what she was expecting. They enjoyed the reception a lot though. There was a candy bar and they were absolutely crazy about being able to pick out a bunch of candy on their own. When Reagan first went up there though she didn't know she could get whatever she wanted so she brought back her box with one sucker in it. I told her she could fill the box so she went back up, but only brought about 5 things back that time. We ended up going up with her so she could fill it up. They both had a great time with the dancing. Grant was shaking his booty to everything and Reagan finally worked up enough courage to dance with her cousins (Anna and Alyssa). They were so wore out when we got home, even with all the candy they ate, that they went straight to bed.
On Sunday we just stayed around Mom's house and played with Vicki's kids. Grant and AJ finally play together and have started wrestling. Sammi seems to have a bit of a crush on Grant and follows him around.
On Monday we went to Grandma's. Grant says he loves to go to Great Grandma's because she has lots of cookies at her house. Of course after lunch she let him have 2 cookies each.
On Tuesday we went to Mt. Pleasant in Lancaster. Scott says it's not really a mountain because it's only 250ft high, but we are limited on mountains here and we call it a mountain. There was a threat of rain all day, but we decided to give it a chance. We got up the mountain, which the kids climbed the whole way without complaining. Being 6 months pregnant I had a bit harder time than they did. We all made it to the top though and they were so excited about being able to see the whole city.
We didn't get to stay at the top very long though because it started getting dark and the wind started blowing hard. Half way down the mountain it started pouring so we didn't get to play on the nice playground there. Knowing that we had drove them 30 minutes down there we had to improvise so we took them to the River Valley Mall in Lancaster where they could play on the inside playground and have lunch.
They said that this was their favorite part of the day. When we got home it was time for nap, but Grant fought it for while. When he finally went to sleep he didn't want to wake up.
He was so mad about having to nap that he threw all his blankets off and tired to not sleep.
