A Visitor!

I had a very special visitor from Austin, Texas come and stay with me this weekend. Haley and her mom came just to see us and we are so thankful! We had a fabulous time despite some car trouble (more on that later) and are very much looking forward to our trip to see them in October.

We started the trip out at the spray ground. Just a few pictures to show off the girl's spray ground fun!










































We also went to the zoo on Saturday. Mom forget her camera though. Check out Haley's blog for a recap of that adventure. I must agree with Haley, the lions were by far the most exciting!

On Monday when all the water parks were closed. We went to Paradise Park. We both had a blast with the many things they had to offer. Here we are doing an art project together. Stamps with pictures of my favorite thing, bus! We also tried out the car, bicycle, train, and boat. But my favorite is bus. I say it to the trucks and buses that drive by our car!


We also played at the water table. Thank heavens they have smocks or we would have been drenched!














And in closing....


Yes, this picture sums up the car trouble. Throughout the course of the weekend, we had moments of waiting. Waiting for mom to get the car jumped. Dad, on Sunday gave us his best effort to try to get it fixedy, but the battery just wouldn't fit. But on Monday, when even a jump didn't seem to start that tired battery, Dad left work and got us a new battery before taking Haley and her mom back to work. We are so thankful we have such good friends who stuck by us with a smile through it all. The tally at the end of the day was: 1 on Friday, late to the airport, 1 on Saturday, off to the zoo, 2 on Sunday, to church and back, 1 on Monday during our trunk snack.
