Fun on the Plains!

If I haven't mentioned before (which I think I have), Aunt Lou Lou (my sister) and Uncle Blaine moved to Auburn last August when they got married. Blaine is in school for architecture so they are living there for the next few years. They come home frequently on weekends for different things, but it really wears them out being gone all weekend every weekend. So, last weekend we decided to visit them! They live in a very small 1 bedroom apartment, but it's so cute and cozy! Friday after work Addison and I loaded up with Mom and Dad and made the drive to Auburn (Kevin had class, so he couldn't join us). We didn't get there until about 7:30 due to traffic and went to eat at O'Charley's. We were late getting back to the apartment so Addison didn't go to bed until 10:00 (which is waaaaay past her bedtime). I was scared at how she would do sleeping in her pack n play, but she did fabulous! She slept from 10:00 until almost 8 the next morning without making a peep! On Saturday, we woke up and Lou Lou fixed us some great waffles (Addison loved them!), then we all got ready and went out into the beautiful weather. I may be a Bama fan, but Auburn really is a pretty place to visit. We played in the park and Lauren LOVED playing with Addison. We bought bubbles, a shovel and pail, and a ball to play and had loads of fun!

After the park, we strolled around Toomer's Corner and there were TONS of people there to see the trees. They had them blocked off and there were all kinds of get well signs hanging on the railing. It was so sad to see. We let Addison ride around in her wagon because it's easier for us and she LOVES her wagon! We strolled right up onto the patio at Moe's and she sat in her wagon for lunch too. We finished lunch off with a yummy chocolate chip cookie!

All in all, it was a great weekend getaway and we can't wait to hang out with Aunt Lou Lou and Uncle Blaine again!! Thanks for having us over guys! We love you two!
