Boys' Weekend

This weekend Laura, her mom, and Esther went to Chicago to visit Aunt Karen....leaving the boys to survive on their own. Now, the last time the girls did this, Daddy spent the weekend in Pukesville with Peter; cleaning up vomit and doing laundry. I'm happy to report this weekend went MUCH better.

We started the day off at the Fleetwood Diner for breakfast, where we happened to run into some of the firefighters from Daddy's station. Peter was very excited when one of the guys gave him a picture of their fire truck. (Daddy then listened to Peter make "fire truck" noises through the rest of breakfast).

Then, off to a neighbor's house to help resolve a problem involving a leaky pipe and lots of water running into her basement. (Daddy decided to call in the pros....resulting in a large hole in her wall, but no more leaky pipes).

From there, we drove to Jamestown to inspect a friend's new house that is being built. Peter enjoyed running through the entire house, but luckily didn't inspect the wet paint too closely.

Then.....NAPTIME!!!!!!

After naptime, it was straight out to Post Farms in Hudsonville to meet Grandma and Grandpa K and Uncle Nick. (Poor Grandma, Peter ran right by her to say hi to Grandpa). This was the highlight of the day. Peter rode his first pony! He also rode in the "pumpkin train" where he got to sit in his own car. Needless to say, Peter was not happy to leave this fun adventure!
We then went off to Grandma and Grandpa's for dinner, and then home.

All in all.....much better then the last time the girls left us at home!
