What did you do to enjoy the beautiful weather this weekend?

The weather last weekend was awful and caused thousands of power outages resulting in me working a lot of hours last week. Dan did great filling in as SuperDad but we still had a lot of time to make up. So here is how we enjoyed the beautiful weather. Friday afternoon I picked up Claire from daycare and went straight to the park to meet friends. Claire was dressed up in her Clemson gear, hoping the Tigers would pull out a win in the tournament (which they didn't) But Claire looked cute anyways. We ran around the park for 2+ hours, swinging....

and sliding...
and running, and running, and running.... On a side note - I love her little pig tails, but you will probably never see them again because I could never do this and Dan does her hair in the mornings. That usually entails throwing in a barette and bringing hair ties to daycare where the ladies love to do her hair.
What good is a trip to the park without sharing your snacks? Claire was carefully handing out the fruit loops. All the girls on the bottom step are the ones she celebrated her birthday party with. Everyone says Claire looks soooooo much older, I guess from this picture I would agree.
Dad read a book to Claire, Dog-dog, and baby. It must have been a really good book because Claire slept until 10AM Saturday morning! :-)
We had some errands to run on Saturday so we headed out shortly after Claire woke up. First stop - Dunkin Donuts, where Claire inhaled an egg and cheese wrap along with part of Dads donut. We grabbed a spot on the bench where Claire was able to eat and watch the buses go by, while proudly announcing to everyone that she had Elmo on her shirt.
Next stop - the Penny Arcade where Claire enjoyed pushing the change into the machine - all $144 of it. And, Little Miss Independent picked out her own shoes yesterday
Our goal was to get something notarized which finally got done after stopping in 3 banks and 2 real estate offices. While we killed time waiting for the notary, Claire ran around the pier.
We stopped to watch the birds and look for boats
She did so good all day walking holding hands -They must work on that at daycare.
We goofed around with Dad
Then we stopped at the library, had a meltdown when we got home, and took a good nap. It was enough so she was well rested for a dinner out. We went out for sushi/asian and Claire was well behaved for the most part. We ordered her sweet potato sashimi which is just fried sweet potato on rice ($1). She devoured that and then ate more rice and some chicken. What a wonderful day we had! Today was not so exciting, but Claire did sleep until 9, pee-pee in the potty, and she got a new slide and lots of new clothes. As soon as she wakes up we will set the slide up in the backyard and hope that provides lots of fun through the summer.

Now let us know how YOU enjoyed the beautiful weather this weekend.
