Circus Weekend and Amber's New House

We had a lovely weekend after a very short week. Last Thursday felt like a Monday, and Friday felt like a Friday. It was weird! We took the kids to the circus again this year with Catie and family. Although it was good...we weren't as impressed as we were after last year's show. It was tamed down quite a bit. JR was feeling the difference as he asked if we could leave 3 times because he was bored. Alex didn't blink and loved it. Funny. Grandma and Grandpa got to join us this year!


Probably the most impressive part of the show, and it took place right in front of us.

The Tiger's are always super neat to watch.

After running some errands on Sunday morning, I made a stop by the emergency vet to hang with Baby Olivia while Karissa visited with a very sick Roger.  We hope he pulls thorough.

After naps, we drove over to the West-Side to visit Auntie Amber's new house that she bought about a  month ago.  It is in a very neat area of town with little coffee shops, donut shops, and breweries within walking distance.  The house fits her and Jesse just perfect.
Alex warmed up to the trampoline.  (Don't worry--it has a built-in net so no little bodies can go flying off of it).  Once she warmed up we couldn't peel her off!


Got to hold Baby Boy Alex as he was snoozin. 6 weeks old!  Awwwwww.

Jeff and Jesse playing shoes and drinking beers.

Dinner time!  Yummy chicken, veggies, and steak from the grill. Felt like summer!

Cute little Baby O the Tornado.


Bestie Selfies!

So wittle and sweet.




Awwww.  The cuteness!

The girls!  Cammi, Olivia, and Alex!

We had a great time visiting and hanging with everyone.  This week JR has LOTS of stuff going on at school. They have an activity or field trip almost every day.  Alex has her first field trip on Thursday to Trampoline World.  Seems like Summer is finally here.

On Friday we are taking Alex in to the Child Development Center to have her speech evaluated.  Although she clearly understands everything that is spoken to her, she seems to have a hard time articulating what she wants to say.  We are curious to see what the professionals think.  Our tenants are getting ready to vacate our rental, so this upcoming weekend is being left open for possible work that will have to be done before the home is ready to re-rent.
