Weekly Happenings - 8/13 - 8/19

1.  Peyton started a new class this week, her first "preschool" class at daycare so we of course have to start off her first school year with the obligatory first day pictures, right?!  Here are a couple I was able go bribe out of Peyton on her first day this week - such a big girl - PRESCHOOL!  I also added a pic of how she writes her name as she starts preschool.  Pretty impressive!



2.  We had a big night on Friday night - a trip to Kaufman stadium to cheer on the Royals!  This was Garrison's 1st game and Peyton's 3rd I believe.  We happened to be there on buck night which Peyton thought was great since she got her own can of soda!  We arrived at the stadium a little early to have dinner and for Peyton to get a chance to play in the outfield - she loved it and so did Garrison!  We rode the carousel and both kids had fun on the playground equipment.  The kids were pretty wiped after 4 innings but it was a super fun time!  Peyton did a great job cheering, clapping and saying "go Royals!"





3.  Saturday we had a big day getting ready for our new house.  We started our Saturday with a trip to T-Rex for lunch followed by a little shopping both for new appliances.  Although not the most exciting time for the kids, we made it through and were able to get everything done - yay!!

4.  While Daddy played in a golf tournament on Sunday morning, Grammy, Grandpa & Grandma Mintun came up to visit!  We had a great time playing games (Peyton helped remind Grammy & Grandma how to play Candyland!), spent lots of time outside since the weather was great, got a lot of packing done and enjoyed a tasty lunch!  Both kids helped with packing but Garrison's "help" was a little less than productive when he took everything out of the boxes we had just packed!  Oh well, hard to argue with how cute he looks below.  And Peyton had tons of fun playing with chalk outside and driving her car.  Garrison thought he should get in on the fun but he isn't quite ready to drive/ride yet!

What an exciting week - first day of pre-school, Royals game - shopping for appliances - and topped by a day of fun outside on Sunday! We sure enjoyed Sunday! Priceless memories.

Peyton did a great job writing her name - she is growing up too fast. Wait until she has to write her entire name, Peyton Augusta Elizabeth Todd - ha ha - according to her anyway - and Garrison is Garrison Arthur Elizabeth Todd per Peyton - she is so funny. That picture of her in front of the piano is so precious - Garrison's picture at the Royals is all smiles. Gorgeous children.
