This past weekend was a lot of fun for our family!  We took full advantage of the 3 day weekend and did a variety of things.  The fun started on Saturday when I ventured on my first long trip solo with both kids.  Since Dave had to work all day, I took the kids to Mebane to visit with my brother and his family.  Of course Savannah and Preston loved playing with their cousins there.  Then we drove to Great Grandma's house and had lunch with her.  They also enjoyed seeing Uncle Mark, Aunt Carol, Pawpaw, and of course Great Grandma too!  The first thing they always do is head for the graham crackers when we get to her house.  It's so funny because grandma actually calls Preston "graham cracker" he likes them so much. :)  Thankfully we made it home safely and Dave was able to make it home in time for dinner

Sunday, after church and nap time, we decided to head to Matthews Alive for the street festival they have every year.  It was super hot, but the kids enjoyed walking around and seeing all of the crafts.

Monday we ventured out to Carowinds for the morning, and again, it was super hot!  We came home and while Dave mowed the yard I bathed the kids and put them down for naps.  They were exhausted so they slept a long time!  At 5:00 we woke Preston up and went out for dinner.

We enjoyed a fun weekend and got a lot of things finished too.  It's nice that we had a 3 day weekend because today the craziness of a full blown Fall schedule starts!
