What a weekend!!!

Grandma-Grandma came over Friday night so that Matt & I could take Madison to her school carnival! She had a ton of fun and managed to win enough tickets to bring home a brand new stuffed animal - it looks like Nala from the Lion King! Good thing is that the toy is brand new (and not one of the donated items for the critter cave - makes you itch a little doesn't it!)! But now Madison has the daunting task of picking out three stuffed animals to donate to Goodwill - there are just TOO many stuffed animals in her play room!! Garrett did great while we were gone - slept the whole time!

Saturday was our date night - or day really! Matt & Madison had a morning date - they went to see The Sword & The Stone at the State Theatre downtown! Best part was that the morning movie is just $0.25!! What a bargain!! Garrett and I hung out at home (like we always do while everyone else has fun)! That afternoon Matt hung out with Garrett while Madison & I went on our date - ice skating at the Civic Center! I have to say that I did a pretty good job for my first time out on the ice...EVER!! We also picked up Aunt Veronica and one of her friends so Madison was able to do some skating with them too!

Sunday we celebrated Grandpa Lee's 60th birthday (they say 60 is the new 50) with a yummy dinner with Grandpa Lee (of course), Grandma Maggie, Uncle Dan and our clan! I'd have to say that the steaks were good but the carrot cake for dessert was so much better - Garrett will enjoy it later too!!

Stay tuned for news of Garrett's one month check-up tomorrow!!
