Tuesday in Edmonson County

Tuesday we decided to drive out to Chalybeate to meet Alicia and Ethan at the sports complex. This was our first time getting together since Eli started school so it was a little sad without our little buddy there. The park is right by the school, and as we were going to go for a walk around the nature trail we realized that Eli's kindergarten class was out for recess....So we did what any mother and accomplice would do...we spied on him at the playground. He is getting so big! Can't believe he has already started kindergarten. It was nice to get to see him...even if it was from 50 ft. away. Next time we will bring our binoculars :)



The kids had a blast playing on the playground. Ella LOVED the curvy slide...so did Addie. Although, Addie went down so fast I was afraid she was going to flip head over feet. So everytime after that I went down with her in my lap. She is such a little Evil Knievel. Ella would not go down a slide until she was 3. Addie...1 year. She is my park lover. And, it was a bumpy ride. I am not made for that anymore, but Addie sure didn't mind. When she went down alone I figured she would cry once it was over, because it did look really scary. But, she sure loved it.

They all enjoyed swinging too. Ella wanted to go really, really high. As I was pushing her she started screaming, "I'm going to see Jesus. Hi Jesus. Got you Jesus. I'm going to pull you down to the ground." Alicia and I about busted out laughing. On a positive note at least she knows who Jesus is and that he lives in heaven. But, I have to admit I was glad we were the only ones at the park at the moment cause she was sounding like a television evangelist while she was screaming it.


After a little lunch we went to see the land that Alicia and Kerry are going to build on in EC. It is in the same subdivision as our friends Alex & V live in so we will have to make regular visits to both! We have lived in the same subdivision since 04' so we will miss having them so close. Growing up we always said we were going to live right by each other in Heartland & we always hoped our husbands would be close too. Well it is kind of funny how those 8th grade plans turned out pretty close. We live on opposite sides of the subdivision, and our husbands work together in the Logan IS dept. Crazy how stuff turns out. What will be really funny is if our kids end up dating some day...something else we have joked about since having them so close together.
