Rainy Saturday


Time to catch up on what has been going on around our house.

I would have to say one of the main things is RAIN!!  We finally have rain down here.  I would say it has been raining off and on for about a week and a half now.  After our sunny Saturday came our first rainy Saturday.  While it made me appreciate the sunshine we enjoyed doing different things for a Saturday.

Our day started with a yummy breakfast at Julwin's in Fairhope.  Julwin's is a cute little diner like restaurant that has pictures of old Fairhope all over - so neat!  They serve a good ole country breakfast.  I think we all left stuffed!

Then we ventured out to run errands.  Our last stop while we were out was the library.  This was Paige's first time to visit and we had a great time!  I had not been to children's section before and it had so many fun things for the kids to do - everything from books (obviously) to a puppet stage, to puzzles, to stuffed animals and other fun wall activities.  They also had doors so that if it got too loud they could shut the doors and not disburb the rest of the library patrons.

Paige loved picking out books and bringing them to the little table to read.

We spent the rest of the afternoon at home just goofing off.  Paige even colored us some pretty pictures.

Poor thing wanted to go swimming.  She put her floaties on and kept telling us "swimmy, swimmy".

To wrap up the day we went out for dinner.  We have come to realize we are the parents who get super worried about how our child acts out in public.  We want her to act perfect and when she doesn't we both get a little stressed out.  Eating out has become more challenging for us so we decided a fun family dinner at Chick-fil-a would work.  We topped it off with a trip to the ice cream store.

Yum, Yum!!

Here's to more sunny Saturdays and rain during the week (while we are stuck inside)!
