Memphis

Over the Labor Day weekend, Daren, Mc and I went to Memphis to visit friends. The friends we stayed with have a daughter Mc's age and they had a blast giggling and playing for 3 days! Just to give you a little run down: Arrive Friday night, we eat and the kiddos play for a while and go to bed.

Up Saturday morning, a little breakfast and we head for the playground! After that, the children's meseum; which, if you are ever in Memphis, take your kiddos, it is unbelievable! Then, they played outside (I'll have to post the video of them in the John Deere, It is hilarious) until Miss Velma arrived so the mommies and daddies could have a little adult time.

Sunday we got up, had pancakes and the girls played for a while. They took early naps and then Kim and I took them to see Sesame Street Live. That, in itself, was worth the whole trip! Mc was so excited about seeing Elmo. But, the whole cast was there. I 'm not sure she even blinked the entire hour and a half. She and Emily clapped and danced and held hands to every song. It was precious! She ate a whole bag of gotten candy, got a big Elmo balloon and some spinny thing she loved. In fact, she's still talking about it. That night, they played outside past dark and went to bed late, and she loved every minute of it!

Monday morning we got up and met my friend Betsy and her kids for breakfast. Mc loved that too! It is so great that she loves being around other children so much. It also makes me proud that she is such a sweet gentle child. She loves on others and is alwasy kind. It may not always be that way, but this weekend I was so proud of her and felt honored that she's mine!

Anyway, these are obviously several pictures from the weekend. I tried to pic just a few, but got a little carried away!
