Birthday Weekend and 10 year class reunion

After a great time at dinner Friday night Josh and I came home "alone." Wade has spent the night with my parents before but it has always been when we were out of town somewhere. It was so strange to come home and not see our sweet boy in his bed. It was a nice treat because we got to sleep in until 830am. We met my parents at Bojangles (Josh's choice) for his birthday breakfast. We had a great breakfast and then went back to get Wade's things and head to Winston. We got to Winston a little before lunch time and had a great day with Josh's parents. We did some shopping and relaxed some and then had to get ready for another date night!!! Josh's parents kept Wade for us while we went to his class reunion. It was at the Fox and Hound and we had a really good time. I only knew a few people but everyone was so nice and friendly. We were really spoiled to have two nights out in a row. Thanks to our wonderful parents for babysitting. I know Wade had a blast.

Sunday we were pretty lazy most of the morning. Matt and Kendal and the kids came over for a birthday lunch and we all had a great time hanging out while the kids played. The boys are getting so big! Josh's mom cooked a great lunch for all of us and we had Josh's favorite "Dewey's" cake for dessert. We spent some time outside too because the weather was so nice. Thanks to everyone for making Josh's birthday weekend so great.

Here are my favorite two toddlers getting ready for a wagon ride with Nana. They had a blast. I just love how they play together and "talk" to each other about things. It will be so fun next fall when the twins are running around playing with the "big cousins." Speaking of big I think by the next time we see them Wade might out weigh Peyton. He is only 2 lbs behind her now and she is getting ready to turn 3. Another funny note my sister was 25lbs in 4 year old preschool and Wade is 26lbs at one and a half!

I just love this picture because I remember how sweet Peyton was and the cute question she was asking Wade. Before this she had just asked if the 2 inches of water in the creek had dolphins or mermaids in it!! On the way back to "Nana's" house she looked at Wade and lifted her foot up and says "Do you like my shoes Wade?" We just died laughing at her. Such a girl... and Wade just looked at her and stared.

 Wade loves to be outside and really loves it at Nana and Poppy's because they have a huge back yard with a pool and basket ball pad. Not to mention their two dogs. Wade loves the "big dogs" and calls one "Alex" (which is her name) and the other one "big dog" (his name is shadow but Wade can't always remember that one so big dog works too) I decided I was tired of running after Wade so we put him in the big dog pen and he loved it.  Don't worry we didn't do anything illegal like leave him in there alone!! Wouldn't that be nice sometimes though to have a huge gate to keep kids in one spot!!!
