a day

Yesterday it seemed as if we were trying to figure how much we could possibly cram into one day....it was a day!!

David's Mom got here Friday night, and so she was along for the ride yesterday...we started by heading across the lake around 8:45 for a birthday party at the City Park Carousel. We wanted to be there because it is a precious family of four girls...Elise went to preschool with one of the daughters, and still takes ballet with her now, and Lila dances with another one. It was an adorable party, and a gorgeous day.....



Lila, our house crazy-lady, surprisingly is the most hesitant about rides....she preferred to start out nice and safely on the carousel bench!




Bennett, on the other hand, never got off of the carousel. He just went from animal to animal, and was happy as he could be!




She finally decided to try out the camel, as long as her Daddy rode with her....




B loving his horse....



Elise also having a great time....



Two little cuties!!
Camille was hesitant as well, so they had fun hanging together on the bench...
David and I were only disappointed that we had to get back to Mandeville...it would have been a beautiful day to spend in City Park.
But, Elise had another birthday party for a classmate from school to go to at 11:30, so we had to head back across the lake. David and his Mom dropped Elise and I off at the next party, and went on a few errands that HAD to get done yesterday. They stopped home, walked Boss, grabbed Elise's soccer clothes, and then picked us back up at the party to head to the soccer field.
The "Pinkalicious Unicorns" had a great game yesterday! Emmy was so impressed with how much Elise has improved since last year....she is so much more confident and is going after the ball more. She had two awesome assists...almost a goal...but, she really played well and had a BLAST!
By the time we got home from the ball park it was after three o'clock....And this is what a 3 year old who has done too much and had too much sugar looks like by that point:


Ummmm....yeah. It was a little much. I think it is safe to say that we will be taking it easy on Sunday.
Last night David grilled fajitas and his Dad joined us for dinner and the INSANE LSU game. The perfect crazy way to end a very crazy day!

One more pic of Elise and Bananas after her game, as we will be working on his journal this afternoon. We are going to add to his book all of the pictures we took with him this weekend so that E's classmates can see how Bananas spent his time here with us.
Hope you all enjoyed your Saturday as well!
