One BUSY Weekend

I am going to go ahead and tell you I am so sorry for how long this blog is but it literally was one very BUSY weekend.
Ashlyn was ready to go with her newly painted toenails.
Our first stop was Peter Piper. It is like a Chuckie Cheese in the states. We wanted to have Cooper one last "fun" weekend before school started.
Ashlyn was a fan of the crust of the pizza.
Avery and her favorite meal, pizza!!!!!!!
Don't worry about me taking a pic Coop..... go ahead and dig in!
Even Darin was excited about eating pizza.
Can you tell how much Avery LOVES pizza!
After we ate it was off to play some games. Not sure how but Darin got to play the first game.
This was Avery's favorite thing there. She literally got upset when other kids were getting on it.
Cooper LOVES getting to play games.
Ashlyn finally got to join in on the fun.
Two cutie pies.
Darin won a "jackpot" on a game which won him 250 tickets. The kids were so excited.
Avery was getting really sleepy. I think this ride was rocking her to sleep. She started yawning about 5 times during this so we knew it was time to go.
After naps........... it was time to go watch a movie with "Tia" Tiffany.
We watched Shrek 3 and was in spanish. They still loved it. They might have enjoyed getting to eat the popcorn more though :)
Poor Peanut had to stay home and listen to Daddy on skype doing his fantasy draft. Poor thing.
Saturday........ first stop a birthday party for a little boy from the church.
Cooper was trying to cheat on pin the tail on the donkey. It was his first time playing and they gave the instructions in spanish so he could have been a little confused. Just trying to give him the benefit of the doubt :)
The SpongeBob bounce thing was a HUGE hit for the party. Cooper used to be so scared of these things but now loves them. He is growing up so fast :'(
After being at the party for over 3 hours....... Ashlyn was ready to get down and crawl.
Cooper could have stayed all day.
We were getting ready to leave but the family insisted that we stay for the piñata. Then realized they meant 3 different piñatas.
So here is Cooper hitting the 1st one.
Then there was a big balloon one. You had to break the plastic and then try to hurry and collect the balloons and pop them to see what was inside.
This is the most adorable little girl.
Alex, Coo and Tink found a new friend. Don't worry........ it stayed there!
About 4 hours later we then headed to an engagement party. It was the couples 50th anniversary. We were only about an hour and a half late and the renewing of the vowels were still going on. We also weren't the last ones to show. That is pretty normal here. We didn't get any pictures because our camera is messed up. This is the only one we got is me with my best friend here with her grandson.
So we didn't stay long because we were all tired and starving. So we left around 9:45 and went to eat some tacos. We did make it to church Sunday and then to eat with another american family that visited the church. Didn't have the camera so I am sorry about that. But I am still so worn out from such a BUSY and CRAZY weekend. We had such a wonderful time though. Thank you LORD for all the opportunities we were given this weekend to spend with the nationals and as a family!
