Busy Weekend



We had a busy weekend but it was a lot of fun. On Saturday we went to the park next door to check out the Chatham Sweet Corn Festival. Apparently they have the worlds best corn so we sampled some corn and took in some interesting scenery like cow chip tossing and the Sweet Corn Queen. We would have stayed longer but it was super hot and Ally wasn't so interested in riding around in the stroller any longer. Later we met the Connors at the Beef House in Covington, IN for dinner. It was a great spot to meet for us both and everyone got their beef fix (not me of course). After dinner we let the girls run around on the grass outside for a bit until a giant rain storm came and we had to hit the road. Its so fun to watch the little girls together. Lexi is 5 weeks older than Ally and she once used to look so big next to her but Ally is catching up quickly now. Crazy how they have changed: then Ally 6 weeks and Lexi 11 weeks and now Ally almost 10 months and Lexi 11 months.


Sunday we took a trip to St. Louis for a Cardinals game. I had gotten Karl tickets for our anniversary so we decided to take Ally to her first game. Again, it was super hot but our seats were in the shade and there was a nice breeze. She really did well and liked playing in the chairs and checking out the people around us. She also liked eating in the stands, especially ice cream! While we were taking a few quick trips this weekend we decided to check out one of the local kennels and vets for Ella. It made the weekend easier on us and we think it was a nice break for Ella too. She has been getting a little stir crazy lately and has been a little rough with Ally so this served as a break for everyone. She checked out great at the vet and her reports came back very positive. Its nice to know that there is high quality pet care here and very much like we had in Lafayette when we needed it. Here are some pictures from the hot but fun weekend.
