Fabulous Weekend.

This weekend was absolutely lovely.

Saturday morning we went to the Parkersburg parade. It was very impressive for such a small town! The kids loved it, and the loot they brought home is just in sane:

(Um, did you really think I would sit down to watch this thing?)

(Mommy & Daddy enjoying themselves too...)

We lolligagged around the P'burg Days festivities for a bit, then went home so everyone (yes, everyone) could nap. Everyone woke up just in time for our dear babysitter, Karly, to come one last time before she goes off to college. Sad day for us. But exciting day for her:

Dallas and I left at 4:00 and got home at 11:30! It was so wonderful! We shopped and went out to eat with friends at Black's Steakhouse. Crazy thing: they closed this week! Given our horrible service, we went surprised. Some Village Inn pie to end the night, and a wonderful time had by all!

The kids were up bright and early Sunday morning, so anxious to tell us all about their night with Karly. A great church service, relaxation, playing outside, popcorn for supper, and early bedtimes. A wonderful weekend indeed.
