What a nice weekend!

We had a great weekend in CT. It was so nice to have the weekend at home to get things done and to enjoy the beautiful weather. Saturday was gorgeous. Alice and I went on a long walk around the neighborhood. She is a great walker. The loop we did is over a mile and she walked almost all of it! Then we had a nice family dinner where Alice actually ate what she was served, including her vegetables!

Sunday was really fun for me and Alice. Reeves had an open house at school, so of course, we girls went shopping! On our way to the Toys R Us, we stopped at a nice park and walked around and ate our snack. I snapped these pictures while we were hanging out on the park bench!





On our list of things to buy was a basketball hoop! Alice's friend Cam had a great one and I decided it was time to get Alice practicing!! We had lots of fun playing with this - dunking and exclaiming, "YES," with our hands up in the air! I think I like the hoop more than Alice... :)



We are gearing up for a busy week. I fly out on Wednesday for a conference and Reeves has playoffs for soccer starting Wednesday. Sue is planning a trip down to help out, thank goodness! I'll be gone until late Sunday so I'm a bit nervous that Alice won't recognize me when I come back! Usually when I leave it means I give up my Mommy's girl status and she becomes a Daddy's girl for at least 2 weeks. Oh, the sacrifices for work!

Have a great week!
