Busy weekend

We had yet another busy weekend. Don't you love those weekends where nothing is planned, but yet it fills up with fun stuff!!! John was in Chicago this past week for his second stage of training for UPS sales. He had a great time and is doing well with his new position. Presley and I had a week of just the two of us. Although we spent every night with my family!! :) Gotta love being so close to them.

Friday night, we all (my parents and brothers family) went to a local parade. We had a great time. Presley enjoyed the Popsicles and the Dum Dum suckers. She HATED the fire trucks and ambulance!!! I didn't get any good pictures, we were too busy getting the goods.
Saturday morning Presley, I and Grandma Pat went to a HUGE garage sale and found some great deals. "New" toys and clothes... Saturday afternoon, Presley went swimming. She had so much fun in her "baf."

I LOVE the little footprints.
Sunday, we decided to go to the MN Zoo. All and all, Presley had fun. John and I were a little disappointed, but we still had a good time.
The first thing we did was watch a dolphin show. Presley was glued to those things the whole 10 minutes!!! She would scream and clap!!!

This is a Prairie Dog... she thought they were funny.
The newest exhibit there was the Grizzly Bears. Who knows what next weekend will bring?! If it's another sunny, warm weekend, we will be outdoors I am sure!

Hugo Days

We took Presley to Hugo Days today. She went NUTS in the petting area. She was a little shy at first, but once she saw we weren't too far, she had so much fun.









There was also pony rides. She wasn't too excited about the helmet...

Let's just say the ride was short. She did okay, but wanted off sooner than later.

Tooddeling around

This past weekend we finally had a beautiful day. We decided to go out on White Bear Lake with my brother and his family and my parents. This was Presley's first time on/in water bigger than the bath tub. Once she got used to the life jacket, she had fun.

Uncle Matt let Presley drive the boat. She like to play with all the buttons and levers.
After we docked the boat, we let her play in the water. She has NO FEAR about going into the cold water. She took the bucket and headed towards the water.

Holding my hand, she managed to walk out to the boat! She had a blast... you would think with all the sunshine and playtime she would have slept through the night... but NO!!!
