We had so much fun this weekend!!!!!
I started the weekend going to the state fair with Laura, Craig, and Lucy on Saturday morning. It had been 3 years since I had gone- the fair was something we would do every year as a big family. I hadn't had much interest going the past couple years without my dad. But we went as a small group this year and it was really good. We got all the favorite foods and did the favorite things. We even ran into Emily and Pat, which was absolutely perfect since we also grew up going to the fair with the Johnsons.
The hardest part was the corn, because that was dad's favorite. But we did it and it was so delicious. Lucy "enjoyed" the fair food too!
While I was at the fair, Chris and the girls were getting ready for the afternoon garage sale at G-ma and Pa's house!
I met them there later and it ended up being an impromptu family gathering! Auntie Lynn, Auntie Karen, Nana and Papa all stopped by, much to our surprise and delight. And of course Auntie Cat, Uncle Dan, Hanna, and Shambles were there too.
The girls were good salespeople (they must get it from their daddy). And we had lots of fun with family. Maya even way overcharged Papa for the donut holes. And I caught the moment we all figured it out on camera- I'll let you guess which picture it is. :)
The girls had fun getting swung by Uncle Dan.
This morning we walked to the park, and stopped for donuts on the way.
We went to the movie "Leap!" over lunch time. It was an adorable animated movie about an aspiring ballerina. See the video later for how it inspired the girls to dance...and there is a random "slo-mo punch" in there too because they thought doing that was HILARIOUS all weekend long.
Anyway. This afternoon Callie and I went to the Lynx game! It took some time to convince her because she has always had a major fear of mascots, and was super worried about Prowl. She told me that when she decided to go to the game, she had been telling herself "FACE YOUR FEAR FOR FUN." She's a wise girl. And ended up having an awesome time. Including giving Prowl a bunch of high fives and getting a free t-shirt (which you will see in the dance video later)!
She was so cute at the game and then tried some dribbling moves when we got home.
Tonight the girls were all about dancing, thanks to "Leap!" We found the soundtrack and they went nuts.

I know that there are some people who read this blog on their email when it comes through, but it seems like videos might not work on the email all the time. If they don't, you can always go straight to the website: http://babygoose806.blogspot.com/ You don't want to miss out on the epic dance moves.
Anyway...hooray! Tomorrow is Labor Day, so we get an extra long weekend.
