Fun Family Time!!

Well, my 5-day weekend has finally come to an end, and it's back to work tomorrow. After taking Austin to see Cars 2 and watching fireworks on Friday, we still had lots more planned for the long weekend.  But one thing not planned......taking Austin to the pediatrician on Saturday morning for an ear infection.  Apparently, one of his tubes fell out, so here we are again.  But after getting a prescription for some antibiotics and picking up some Motrin, we were quickly on our way back home.  Saturday, we enjoyed time at the neighborhood pool and cooked out.  We even pulled out the ol' $15 Target pool out of the garage to setup in the backyard for Austin while we grilled out.  It was great to have Jordan home on a rare Saturday and not working.




But it was back to work on Sunday for Jordan, so me and the boys headed over to Meow Meow and LoLo's apartment to hang out.  We had a Mexican feast that night and enjoyed more time at the pool.  Chase loves to just float around in his little float, just kicking his legs in the water.  Jordan met us there when he got off at 6, which was convenient since his new job is close to their apartment.  We turned this visit into a sleepover, which is always fun in a one-bedroom apartment.  But we're a close-knit family, so it was all fun. :)






And again, on the 4th, Jordan had to work, so me and the boys hung out at Meow Meow and LoLo's pool again before heading home to rest up and get dinner ready for Daddy.  We had planned on going to watch fireworks that the City were putting on at the local park, but Chase fell asleep early.  Rather than wake a baby, we were hoping we could see them from our house.  We pulled our camping chairs up on the sidewalk by the house and had a perfect view of fireworks! Not sure we will go to the park again and battle the crowds with a view like this at home!

Today was Jordan's day off, so I planned on taking off too.  We dropped Chase off at daycare and headed to Hawaiian Falls to meet Meow Meow and LoLo. (Sorry Chase, but it was just too hot out there to take you, little guy!)  We had a great time floating in the lazy river, splashing in the wave pool, and riding some slides.  As usual, we all had a great time and got a little sunburned. 


But it's back to reality tomorrow!  Have a great week!
