Weekly Recap {6.12.17}

Happy Monday Friends! We are coming off a super fun weekend but first let's look back at our week!

Monday I ran errands with the kids then took them to a park to play - at night it we stopped by my in laws for my MIL's birthday then it was off to Brayden's game!


 


Tuesday we went to the new park by our nature center with some friends then walked the trails to the other side where we had a picnic and checked out some of the farm animals. The kids were so wiped! At night we took them to see Captain Underpants which was surprisingly funny and cute!!




Wednesday we went to the library for this S.T.E.M. class then I took the kids to lunch at McDonald's which they were ecstatic about!







Thursday we went on a super fun playdate with some of Brayden's classmates and their siblings. We took the train just a couple stops to another town to check out this bakery that the one Mom said was amazing, but when we showed up it was closed. We were all dying laughing. Luckily right next door was a cute diner where we all got some food/milk shakes then we went walking around the town and found a park to play at before we hopped on the train to come home. My kids LOVED the train that now that's going to be our thing this summer, taking the train just to local towns and checking stuff out. Hopefully we'll fill our map up quite a bit :)


 





Friday morning my Mom came over and we all headed to the farmers market and then to the splash pad which is right by it. Of course we had to get ice cream too :)

 

 



Friday night we stayed in and watched the new Beauty and The Beast (finally) and I went to bed early because I was super tired.


Saturday morning was a baseball game for Brayden then Rick and I headed downtown for the Cubs game. We joked that it seems like we're dating again because we've actually been going out alot and doing fun stuff. It's crazy how wrapped up in parenthood you can get! Anyway, the Cubs lost but we still had a lot of fun! (how can you not at Wrigley!) We went to my in laws to get the kids but all of us went swimming there for a while instead of heading right home. It was to bed pretty early again for all of us.





Sunday we went swimming by my brother in law and sister in laws house. It was a gorgeous day and everyone again was wiped out when we got home!


Today I'm taking the kids to the city to the Shedd Aquarium, it's a free day so that means it's going to be insane, but hopefully still lots of fun!


xo,
Lizzie

  3. YAY for dates with your Hubby and what a fun week and weekend you had. That train looks like soooo much fun. Is it a local train or something like an Amtrak? It sounds awesome. What a great way to travel without having to drive! Your area has so much to do!

  5. So much fun going on! I love that you guys do so much because I feel like that's how we are too. I love the idea of taking the train to local towns and checking everything out. Baseball games are a lot of fun even if they don't win. We're thinking about taking the boys to a Phillies game this year. Beautifully Candid

  13. So fun to take the train just for fun! My kids love the train when we visit NJ. We don't have that option by us! I was actually outside Wrigley last week on Wednesday! We passed through Chicago and got dinner in that area, then we walked around the stadium. It was cool to see!

  14. Is that a zipline of sorts at that park? Mason would love that! Captain Underpants is on our list of things to do this summer. Mason can’t wait! What a fun and busy week you guys had. Love the pictures!

  15. My kids would have loved the train ride too and that sounds about right that it would be closed, that happens to me ;) but sounds like you made the most of it. So jealous of your cubs game, what fun! Vera sings the cubs song ALL THE TIME! We have the Iowa Cubs which is their farm league here so we can see some of the rising stars! xoxo ERIN
