Saturday morning we went to the Byron Center Days parade with Chris, Tracy, Chloe, Julia, and the Schaafs. It was a great parade! There weren't a whole lot of people there so we didn't have to fight for a seat like in Grandville. And we got as much or more candy than the 4th, with great coupons for free ice cream at Houseman's and free drinks at Sessions & Beaner's Coffee Houses! We'll definitely be back!
After NO nap, we headed to Frog Hollow Park for the Westra Boys' Birthday Bash. All 5 of them have birthdays between June 1 and July 7, so naturally the Westras think we're having a girl since my due date is nowhere near June! We'd not been there before, but it was a HUGE hit for Dylan. Slides, swings, balance beams, a rock wall, frogs to climb on, oh, and a birthday cake... what more could a 2 year old need! If you need a new park to venture to, check it out! And yes, they do have bathrooms now.
Then after church on Sunday, we picked up Jon's Grandma Dykstra and headed up to the cottage. Jon & I had a good afternoon relaxing, fishing, and floating in the water while Dylan napped. Once the big guy woke up, he was ready to hit the water and do some rough housing. It's so fun to play his little games and hear him giggle at us! After supper, Grandpa, Jon, & Dylan went out in the boat to fish. I didn't think Dylan would last long, but they were out for about an hour! They were catching a lot of fish, so that kept Dylan busy. When they got back, Dylan told me they caught a "big, big, big huge fish" and opened his arms up wide. Jon thinks he's starting his fish tales a little early since the biggest fish they caught wasn't more than 8 inches! Oh well, at least he had fun!
We had a good time and are looking forward to another busy and fun weekend this week. Aren't summers supposed to be relaxing??? =) Hope yours aren't as hectic!
