Day of firsts

The weather was picture perfect this weekend! We got to get out and enjoy it on Saturday when we met Aunt Ashley at the park to play.  This was the first time Anna Kate and Drew have ever been to the park to play.  We went a few times last Spring to walk but they were too small to play.  They got to swing, and climb on the jungle gym, and go down the slide.  As much as they love to go outside, I am sure this was just the first of many, many trips to the park.

 Checking out the slide
 Mr. Serious (when he wears his sunglasses, that seems to be his alter-ego)
 We did experience another first while we were at the park.  Drew missed a step on the jungle gym and experienced his first busted chin. :(
 Swings!
 Anna Kate loved to swing last year.  She wasn't so sure about being put into the swing at the park but she quickly remembered how much she loved it.
Yay!  He may love swings after all.  Last year when we would put Drew in the swing at home or at DotDot and Grandaddy's he would get very serious and slump over after a few minutes. We thought he may have been a little motion sick.  Well, I think he has outgrown it because he loved the swings yesterday!

After the park, we went to McAllister's for dinner.  This was also a first for Drew & AK.  It was the first time they have ever actually eaten their meal at a restaurant.  We ordered them a ham & cheese sandwich, apple sauce, and some fruit.  They also had tomato from Aunt Ashley's salad and some of my pickle.  They were.... very messy but were decently well behaved.  By the looks of the floor after they were done, I'm not sure how much they ate but I think they did like it.

 Dinner went pretty well until Anna Kate decided that Drew's dinner looked better than her's.  She was able to wiggle out of her high chair and onto the table before we knew it.  We shouldn't have but we laughed and took a couple of pictures before we made her get down.  We quickly packed up and left after this because things were starting to go a little south and they were getting antsy.
Oh, silly girl.  Her Daddy would have died if he would have been there!
