Road Trip

Mom, Celeste, Annie, Hudson, Callista and I all went to McPherson yesterday to spend the afternoon with Christin. We had lots of fun going to lunch and hanging out at the gym (so Hudson could watch basketball and baseball practice, of course).

On the way to McPherson my brother-in-law, Nate, called and asked Celeste if we could stop in Sedgwick, KS to take some pictures of arrowheads at an antique store. Celeste, ever willing to do crazy stuff like that for her hubby, agreed. Till we pulled up to the "store". She was a little scared to go in but she braved it for her man! Then her camera battery was dead so she had to come back out to the car and get mine. But she was in and out in 10 seconds probably. She said the place was wall to wall, floor to ceiling, with junk!

The esteemed arrowheads. Except when she called Nate afterwards he had thought they were arrows, not just arrowheads. So after all we went through, I don't know that he was even interested in them!

The house next to the "store". This is what we saw from the highway first and Celeste said there was no way she was going in there! Not sure if the guy actually lives in this house. I hope not!

The actual antique "store" next to the house. Hudson and I stayed in the car!

road trip

Last week Christin had a home volleyball game so we all took off early and drove up to McPherson for the afternoon. We took the boys to the park and had lots of fun hanging out before the game.

We had a hard time convincing Hudson it was too cold to go swimming in the "pool"!

This reminds me of those pictures they take on the roller coasters - must have been quite a slide!

And our only injury of the day. Celeste stubbed her toe on a cinder block underneath the slide when she was helping Hudson go down. If you listen real close at the end of the video you can hear her saying "ouch." She was pretty calm for how gross it looks - and how much it must have been hurting!

road trip to see Aunt Christin

I'd been promising Christin all semester that Hudson and I would come up and spend the day with her and since this was the last week of classes we had to get up there! So Wednesday Hudson and I took our first road trip together (alone) and it went really well. Of course, it's only 45 minutes and I timed it so that it was naptime on the way out and then he was so tired from playing all day he slept the whole way home too! We had a picnic lunch and played at the park and sat out in front of Christin's dorm and played with bubbles and just hung out. It was a fun day!

He loves playing with rocks now. He would rather sit on the ground and play with the rocks than play on the swings or slides. That's all fine with me till he starts trying to eat them! Then I make him stop playing with them and he throws a FIT! Funny how as soon as he turned 1 he has started throwing fits when he doesn't get to do what he wants to!



All tuckered out!
