Elsie Anne + I started our fun-day w/ Family Gym Time! She went crazy in this bouncy house, after having so much practice @ GeeGee + Papa's in Ohio!! We had fun playing w/ balls, tunnels, tents, hula hoops + climbing on the mats!!
After a great nap, Elsie Anne woke up to Daddy + pumpkin carving! Yes, we are procrastinators... we've had the pumpkin, just never took the time to carve it. EA was a big helper!Then, we headed to Kid's Night Out @ our church! We got all checked in, pointed out costumes that EA recognized, got EA to the right group... and OFF we went for our 2nd Breckenridge Dinner Date, since EA's arrival, almost 20 months ago (the 1st was last winter when my Mom was in town)!!
Shawn + I enjoyed appetizers + drinks @ The Hearthstone, where we hadn't dined since our 2yr anniversary when I was preggo w/ Elsie Anne! It always brings back good memories:) Our 'honey time' was very satisfying + we were able to really enjoy each other's company. I'm ready for another one already, heehee!
After a little over an hour, we were anxious to get back to our Princess! I know, it's sad, but we live + breath our little girl, + since it's just the 3 of us out here, we do EVERYTHING together, so it was weird not having her with us. We spyed for a bit, before EA knew we were there. This is how we found her little group. She is right behind the boy looking @ the camera, you can only see the top of her head w/ a halloween bow, of course:)
We watched her line up w/ all the children to go into the mess hall, and as she came out of the room, we popped out! She got so excited and ran over to hug us, as if to say, "I haven't seen you in a whole HOUR!" It was the best reunion ever:)
As we drove home, she told us about the Dance Room ~ which the teacher had already commented to us about her "hilarious dance moves," and that she HAD to stay longer than the rest her age, so she danced w/ the older children too:) ~ the Face Painting, the Barney Movie, and her favorite costumes, which were Woody from Toy Story, a Spider, a Princess, and a Pirate, she kept talking about her teacher, Ms. Nikki, and all the big children too! It was so fun to see her pride + feel her excitement about her adventures ALL BY HERSELF!!
It was a SUCCESS! SIGN US UP for the next 'Kids Night Out'! :)
