Saturday

We had the most perfect family day Saturday. We had planned a family “tailgate” to watch the U of L football game and the State game. The U of L was on first at 5. So we had some yummy food to make and got the girls in some red and green. While I was making dinner and John was watching the game Camille was out in the fenced in back yard. We were watching her from the windows. At one point John wondered where she was so went to investigate. She came running into view with her arms up in the air and was saying, “I picking tomatoes!!!” She had 2 handfuls of cherry tomatoes. It was one of the cutest things I have ever seen and heard. After watching the “Go Cards” for a little bit (and I mean minutes) the girls wanted to go outside and play. It was a perfect evening so I took them. We played on the swings forever. C even wanted her baby swing switched out for a big girl swing like Avery’s. She looked so big on that swing. She is growing too fast. John came out for a bit and I went in for some reason. Av hopped back on her swing and minutes later John noticed that she was full-fledged swinging all on her own. She had gotten herself started and everything. She was so proud of herself and has been telling everyone now that she can “pump all by myself on my big girl swing!” So cute. After that John lit a fire and we made smores. Av knew exactly what we were doing and was very excited. C on the other hand just wanted marshmallows. Av went to town and loved every bit of hers. C refused to touch her smore so John had a bite and handed it to me. I didn’t really want it but after a minute had a bite. Well I could not stop at one bite and it was soon gone. Just then is when C decided she wanted it and threw a royal fit. After another marshmallow she was fine. We put them to bed on a sugar high. Saturday ended with a GREAT MSU football game. I am really glad I stayed up to see the end of it. What a great play in OT to fake going for a field goal and score a touchdown. I just love my Spartans so much!!! John had fallen asleep but I could not keep my shock/happiness to myself and my cheering woke him up. Hehehe oops.
