Weekend Fun

We had such a fun weekend! This is a photo of some Caprese Naan I made on Friday. It was delicious!!

 Ella is starting to be more interested in playing games on the iPad. She really likes the Duck Duck Moose Apps.

 Friday afternoon was super hot so Ella spent some time playing outside in the pool. Nicholas opted to stay indoors since temps in the high 90s are no fun for him. 

 On Saturday Jeff surprised Nicholas with this little plane they put together. Nicholas thought it was so cool and was excited to fly it when we went to the park later that day.

 Ella loved the swings more than ever and wanted to swing almost the entire time we were at the park. 

 She also liked the slide.

 Nicholas enjoyed watching Ella...

 but he liked flying his new airplane with daddy even more!

 Ella and I went to an antique store when my friend, Lyndsey, was here and I came home with half of a glass chicken since Ella broke the bottom half. Any ideas what I can do with it?

 I didn't get any photos...but Saturday night Jeff and I had a date night with friends and went to dinner at Fuji Sushi and watched the new Batman movie at Cinetopia. It's so nice to spend time with my husband, sans kids.

 Sunday afternoon we went to our annual block party for the first time after living in our neighborhood for six years! All the other years we always had some other event to attend or Nicholas was in the hospital, so it was nice to finally make it and meet some more of our awesome neighbors!

 Nicholas loved watching the kids play soccer.

 Ella ran around everywhere chasing the kids and eating her weight in desserts and sugary drinks.

 Ella was worn out at the evening's end, so sweet Grace gave her the princess treatment and pulled her around in a make-shift wagon. She loved every minute of it.

I love weekends that we can spend so much quality time together as a family. I feel abundantly blessed!
