Our Super-Fun Saturday!

This past Saturday has got to be one of the best ones we've had in a while! We started off the day at Frisco Fest in downtown Rogers. My parents (Grandad and Ganmommy) went with us. We all had a great time! This year was the first year that Maddox was able to really participate in all that the festival had to offer. They had tons of rides and exhibits for kids and Maddox loved every bit of it! We all had so much fun just watching him! However, I don't think the child smiled one time, but he was having fun. You know how kids get real serious about stuff?? Like they are enjoying themselves, but its all so new, so they don't even crack a smile....just have a very serious look on there face while the experience whatever it is they are doing....that was Maddox...so funny!


Of course, we took tons of pictures! I am telling you, we had so much fun....who knew our little city could have such a fun event!
Here is Maddox and "Ganmommy". When she's around, nothing else matters...all Maddox wants is her! So she got to stand in line with him so he could shoot a fire hose....we all went and got shaved ice and scones...ha! Thanks, Ganmommy!
The Rogers Fire Dept. had the best area for kids (in my opinion). What kid wouldn't love to get to shoot a real fire hose!? Maddox just had to do it! I was so proud!
This was the target he was shooting at....
Does it get any better than a real train ride. I mean, can't you just see the joy on my child's face?;)
Maddox looking at the big aquarium that has all the fish from our own Beaver Lake. Creeps me out to think this stuff is swimming around me when we're there! Ugh!
Grandad's favorite thing to do.....push the stroller! Thanks, Grandad!
Right up Maddox's alley......a big ole train set!!
The train conductor gave out "official" certificates for running the railway. Maddox was so proud he would not let ANYONE else hold it. He even took it with him for his nap....seriously!


Mr. "I'm starting a diet tomorrow...".....hahaha!


Out of ALLLLL the good food to choose from, Maddox ate an apple! Is this really my child????

Good times....BUT..................Our Saturday didn't end there. I cannot tell you the last time David and I had been on a date...so Mom and Dad came over and watched the kids so we could go out. I just love having them close and I am so glad they are always willing to watch my babies!

Here's me and my date before we left....so happy to have a night out!

David and I decided to go to Crabby's...if you live in NWA and haven't been you need to go...so good! And I don't even like seafood! I got the black and bleu salad...YUMMY!

When we finished dinner we realized that if we went home, the babies would not be in bed yet. SOOOO, we went across the street to aLoft and shot pool. We haven't had that much fun together in a long time!

What a fun day! Stay tuned for my next post....I have had lots of requests for video of Maddox breakdancing....I'm working on it and will have it up soon! Ha!!!
