Another Summer Weekend

We spent this past weekend out and about--enjoying the beautiful weather and wishing the summer would slow down. Derek was out of town for three days for a bussiness meeting in NYC, so it was just us girls at home. Addy and I had a lot of fun on our first nights home alone, but we were glad to pick Daddy up at the airport on Saturday night.

Derek actually flew home by way of Springfield Airport and needed a ride, so Addy and I visited a few Rochester friends before we picked him up. Addy had some serious play time with her friends Charli, Ben, and Jack and enjoyed seeing her adult friends too! Little did we know that while we were having fun with our friends, Derek was having a horrible time getting back to Illinois. He lost his wallet in the taxi, which made it quite challenging to get on his flight! We picked Derek up from the airport late Saturday evening and Addy (and mommy) was so excited to see her Daddy. After his long day Derek was so happy to be back with his family.

On Sunday we took it easy. We have discovered that Addy loves being outdoors. She especially enjoys looking at the trees. It was such a beautiful day on Sunday that we had a picnic at Miller Park under the huge trees. Addy laid on the blanket for quite a long time just watching the trees around her. We really had a great time. I look forward to many more relaxing picnics at the park!
