We had a fun but busy Labor Day weekend. On Friday, my sister Nikki came to visit with her husband Brian and their three kids Maya, Alex and Evan. It was fun to watch the girls play with their cousins. They all went to the park by our house and played together for quite a while. We all had tater tot hot dish for supper. The girls seemed to like it…but that’s not surprising since they have liked any food we have given them!
On Saturday, we drove up to Jamie’s sister Jill’s house for the first annual Adopt-A-Highway Cleanup for Jill’s husband Jim that passed away from cancer earlier this year. There was a great turnout and the cleanup went quickly. Jill had a get together afterward at her house, complete with hot tub rental and a nice big tent. The weather was just beautiful. The girls were having so much fun that they did not want to nap. They managed to stay up all day and party, so they were quite exhausted by the time bedtime rolled around. They even sat on Uncle Joey’s motorcycle! Hopefully this doesn’t turn them into Biker Babes. :)
On Sunday, we spent the day at the Suchy farm. We took the girls for a walk around the farm in the morning. Grandpa Suchy showed them his shed full of treasures, including his antique grocery cart. They also sat on the tractor while Grandpa started it up. They took a long morning nap. I actually had to wake them up so we could get to church on time. We found out that we are going to be an aunt & uncle again! Jamie's sister Janell & her husband Luke are expecting a baby in April. We are very excited! Grandma Suchy made a delicious dinner, and then around 3:00 the girls and I went to visit a high school friend of mine. From there, we went to my sister Rhonda’s house by Sauk Centre and stayed there for the evening. Rhonda is having a garage sale next weekend, so I wanted to help her set up for that. The girls had a good time, and even took a bath with their cousin Emma. Olivia was splashing around so much that Emma kept saying “She’s splashing me!”
Jamie stayed back at the Suchy farm (he had his own vehicle) and went to a surprise 30th birthday party on Sunday night for his sister Janell’s husband Luke. He said it was a fun time! The girls and I drove back home early Monday morning because we wanted to beat Labor Day traffic. They did pretty well in the car. They slept most of the time, but when they were awake they pretty much played and talked to each other. We got home about 10:00 and unloaded the car. Jamie got home at about 11:00 and had Grandma Suchy with him. She spent the day with the girls so I was able to get a few things done around the house. Jamie’s sister Jill (who was in the cities) picked up Grandma Suchy around 5:30 and they headed back home. The girls were so tired they went to bed about 30 minutes earlier than usual. It was quite a busy weekend for them, with a lot of traveling! But they did very well. They love to do patty cake now. They clap their hands together all the time! It is quite cute. Here are some photos from the weekend.
