A Fun Afternoon....

So today has been good so far, aside from the fact that my allergies are acting up and my throat *still* hurts.....the morning was awesome...I slept in until 10 am. (I really need to "thank" Aaron for that... ;) Then, a former neighbor stopped by, and that was some fun to be had.

Then, we went to Burger King so that Collin could get some Star Wars toys that they're giving out in their kids' meals. We then took our lunch to a local park, which was interrupted by the landing of a LifeLine helicopter! As much of a pain as getting out of our lunch area was, it didn't replace the wonderment on the kids' faces as they saw a helicopter land not 100 feet away from them! In the next few minutes, we knew WHY the helicopter landed there....the firehouse, which is next to the park, was having an open house! :D So we went over to see the helicopter up close and personal, and we also went up to see the firehouse. Was very fun, and Griffin is stoked beyond all belief! :)

So the kids didn't get down for a nap until after 2pm, which is totally unheard of. And I'm now sat down to play Literati with Nancy. hehe
