Dallin's dad came to visit two weekends ago. He spoiled us, but he especially spoiled Everett.
Joel, Staci, and Rachel drove on over for the occasion. We had a couple of family dinners and get-togethers.
Saturday most of us spent the evening playing mini-golf and eating at Shakey's Pizza. Dallin was only one over par and I was three over.
Everett thought helping his grandpa get the air out of his air mattress was hilarious.
As part of getting ready for the baby to come, we have been going through baby items and clothes. This giant package showed up at our doorstep from my parents after my mom bought every piece of baby girl clothes at a garage sale. Thanks Mom!
Everett didn't want us to put the nursing pillow back away because he found use for it as a bouncing/rocking horse.
I have been amazed on two recent occasions to discover that Everett had organized his toys by type. Here he has even separated the farm animals from the wild animals. And he put the blocks in colored rows separated by type of block (for the most part). I don't know if he knows he did that or not, but it is pretty cool. (Also, you can see him building a Jenga/Domino tower).
Devon and Whitney came with us to the Pig Out in the Park at Riverfront Park this last Thursday. Though it would have been in the spirit of the festival, we resisted the urge to sample the glazed doughnut burgers, cornbread cake, fry brick, doughnut fries, or deep fat fried: Twinkies, candy-bars, caramel apples, etc. We opted for some delicious gyros instead. Music played from three stages and a couple of street guitarists. Booths ranged from "Are you a good person? Take the quiz now." to politicians vying for votes. Whitney and I stopped to look at the booths selling little girl tutus and tie-dye onesies. Too fun. This candid shot I took with my phone made the bridge beam look bent.
My coworker invited us out to her cabin at Loon Lake again this last Saturday. Everett started calling her husband "Grandpa". He didn't seem to mind.
