Our first out of the week was to Duke Gardens. It was perfect weather day and Vincent and Dominic got to run around freely and expend some energy while we had a nice picnic lunch. Uncle Vinny even tried to fly a kite, but unfortunately, the wind just wouldn't come out to play!
This night also happened to be Vinny's and my 6th Wedding Anniversary. Grandma and Grandpa babysat while we got to have the night to ourselves to go out to dinner. A really fun day!
On Labor Day, we went to Tucker Lake. We had just as much fun there as we did last time and probably even more because we had everyone with us. It was a great day of sand and sun!
Dominic got a really nice surprise during Grandma and Grandpa's visit. A very special early birthday present. That Tuesday morning, we all took a trip to Toys R Us to pick out a train table for Dominic. Whereever we go that there is a train table, Dominic is completely captured by it, so they knew this would be great for him. After our shopping trip, we stopped to have lunch and of course, some fun ensued there as well. Once we got home, Dominic went for a nap and Grandpa and Daddy went to work constructing the table so that when Dominic got up from his nap, it was PLAY TIME! He sure is one lucky little boy!
September 11th is Dad's birthday, so it was such a special treat to have him here to celebrate. And we did that from breakfast through to dinner. It was a relaxing low key day, with a trip up to the flea market at Dad's request for some browsing. We finished out the day with dinner with the whole gang and as you'll see, even Grandpa got a little silly (imitating Vincent's "Say Chese" face)!
The last day of their visit was Grandparent's day and Marbles Museum was celebrating the occasion so we spent the day there having some fun exploring and playing.
