Today, we went to the Turtle Festival in Belton, Texas. It was a lot of fun for such a small family event. I never would have thought we would end up spending 2 1/2 hours there, but we did! The girls had a great time with face painting, turtle races, wheel barrow train ride, Home Depot workshop and pony rides.
Lydia just followed her big sister around and got two arm paintings and sat so still. She got a ladybug and butterfly just like Lillian! :) Then, Lillian and daddy went to the Home Depot workshop to build a helicopter. And Lydia and I decided to try a stacking game. But, what do you think we had to stack.....yep, cookies! Really? Lydia stack cookies....C is for Cookie and that's good enough for me! She didn't stack not even one....she picked it up, pretended to stack and then ate it! She walked away with six free cookies before the lady got the idea she couldn't focus with food around!
Lillian enjoyed the morning building the helicopter with daddy. What a perfect thing for them to build together too! It turned out great and she got another apron for her collection and another pin too. We even met our friends out there for a little while.
The day ended with Lydia taking a 2 1/2 hour nap and then Lillian and I going to a birthday party at the Belton Fire Department. We had a lot of fun, the girls ran wild and then we our our awesome friends over for dinner. What a day! WHEW!!
Love you all and take care!
