Weekend whirlwind

Well it was a busy weekend. Zoe needed a bath, which thanks to the monsoon season, needed to be done indoors. Ben thought the whole thing was hilarious and was very intrigued to see Zoe in his tub.

"Nice right hook you've got on that tongue, Zo!"

We celebrated Travis' 2nd birthday with a construction themed party at his house, complete with bouncy house! Kelley, Simmons and Travis tried their darndest to help Ben have fun in there, but Mommy knew better and stayed outside with the camera.

He was much happier shoving handfuls of raisins in his fish face.

and also riding on the dog statue and tossing balls around the room.
After the party, we headed home for a quick lunch,

then off to Nashville where we celebrated my dad's birthday! Ben wore himself out playing extremely hard at Grandma and Grandpa's,

and relaxed with a nice movie on the ride home,

and under a self-built pillow fort before bed.

A busy weekend payed off with a 7:15 wake time for Mr. Ben this morning - a great way to start the day! Now if only he'd go to sleep tonight...
