Well Saturday flew by, so Sunday, we were determined to get back to Breakheart. The weather was perfect. Hazel and I went to church as you saw in my last post--it was a big day for me. When we were on our way home, Hazel wanted to go for a ride. As I drove by the McDonalds near our house, I saw their sign saying Elmo was there from 12-2. Now Elmo is Hazel's favorite character. He was before we let her watch television and still is now that we don't let her watch it anymore. So I called Steve and told him I would be by to pick him up and off we went. Unfortunately the sign was wrong. Elmo had been there in the morning and Dora was there in the afternoon (however next Sunday it is reversed). Now the only way Hazel knows Dora is she on Hazel's potty seats because they were the only pink ones we could find and she insisted on having a pink potty seat.
At first she was very shy, but then Hazel had fun dancing with Dora. We of course ate lunch there--which was the first time in about 10 years that I ate McDonalds for a meal. And now of course we have to go back again next week to see Elmo. Ugh!
Hazel calls it Old MacDonalds since apparently she made the connection with the song and the restaurant. It is really cute. Here is my favorite picture from yesterday...

We came home to do some planting. On Friday, Hazel and I went to the nursery and picked out some pansies. But first we noticed the crocus were up!
Hazel picked out two packages of pansies for our front porch planters. Then she helped me dig in them and plant them.

Oh, we also had to check out Daddy's work. While Hazel and I were at church, he stabilized the stumps that Pop gave us for an obstacle course. They are a big narrow, but she had fun on them. Unfortunately I didn't have the camera when she was actually on them and she is fighting pictures now.
How did you spend your weekend? Did your family get some good together time?
What great outdoor fun for your daughter! My daughter and I enjoy picking out flowers from the nursery and planting them just like you did with your daughter. I want to get my hands on some stumps too. That's great that Dad and Pop helped create the obstacle course. Thank you for sharing at The Outdoor Play Party!
ReplyDeleteI love having my girls help me out with flower planting. And they love helping me with anything in the garden. Those stumps are so fun, I would love to get some really big ones to have in our backyard.
ReplyDeleteThanks for joining the outdoor play party!
