Other busy week

After a very busy 4th of July weekend last week was much less eventful but still busy. Tuesday we missed our usually play date because the girls were asleep for once. Wednesday morning we went to a play date at our friends Becki and Hannah's and did a little swimming. Wednesday we stuck close to home in the afternoon and tried to catch up on things around the house. Wednesday night I went out to dinner with my playgroup friends to celebrate Becki's new baby that is coming in August! It was a nice evening without children which is rare with this group of friends.

Thursday we had a play date with Jack and Elizabeth and enjoyed some pool time. The kids had a blast and thought it was so funny when the hose rained on them! I spent most of Thursday night getting ready for our trip to West Virginia.

Lydia loves the water but does not enjoy the backyard pool as much!

She liked the baby pool a little better

Friday we headed to West Virginia to spent some time with family. Friday we ended up hanging around the house at Grandma and Pappy Miller's because Corinne loves the playroom they have. It was nice to just have time to sit and visit and not have to run from place to place like we usually do. We were going to try and take the girls to the Oglebay Zoo but it ended up raining most of the afternoon.

Saturday we spent the day hanging out and trying to get the girls all set so that we could head into Pittsburgh for the Dave Matthew's Concert. We were able to leave pretty early and head into Pittsburgh and get something to eat. Then we rode the "T" to downtown from Jeremy's old neighborhood which is always fun. Plus you see some interesting things on that train. Zack Brown opened for Dave and was very good. Jeremy and I had a great time at the concert although our seats were kind of weird (the sound was very muffled because of the roof above us) so we ended up going down about two levels and standing behind that level and could hear and see great. Jeremy and I both decided that we like the more open concert venue like Polaris or Post Gazette Pavilion to see a show like this. We were suppose to meet up with our friends Bill, Amy, Ross and Courtney and a few others before the show but ran out of time. So we were going to try and meet them for a few minutes after the show. We ended up running into them on the street believe it or not and were very glad to see them. However we could not stay long because we need to get home and had to catch the train before it stopped running. Overall, it was a very nice night out. Corinne and Lydia had a great time with their cousin Madison at Grandma and Pappy's. Thanks to them for watching the girls!

Beautiful view of Pittsburgh from our seats! (Don't let this foul you this was while Zack Brown was playing most of the Dave Matthew's were still in the parking lot tailgating)

Sunday came very early since we did not get in till about 2:30 and both girls got up shortly after we got home for a few minutes. Then Corinne was back up at 7. That is the price you pay if you stay up late though. Sunday morning we packed up and headed for some breakfast with GiGi, Jeff and Pap Pap before heading out of town. It was a very nice weekend!

Monday we just hung out around home and tried to catch up from the weekend. Lydia was not herself but I think it is a combination of a very busy weekend and more teeth coming soon.

Today we had a nice play date with our girl playgroup at Becki and Hannah's house. They have lots of toys outside so it is like Disneyland for our girls.
