The Froehle's: A weekend at home

We've been gone the last 4 weekends so it was nice to finally have a weekend at home! We soaked it up and packed as much in as we could!

Friday night the Moore's and Kahlert's came over and the kids had a blast together! The boys played in and with the water and the girls took care of their babies! It was a late night, but it was fun!

Bishop threw a frisbee on the neighbors garage roof, so he needed help getting it down.....he thought it was pretty cool to be up on the roof, so he did it again! :)

Saturday morning Luke helped his dad and brother deliver some firewood in Inver Grove Heights. The kids weren't up when Luke left, so I took them down there after they got up. They both really enjoyed helping.....and Bishop loved the wheel barrow rides!

We got home, walked to the Farmer's Market for lunch, stopped at a park to play and then got home to get ready for the afternoon. Bishop had a birthday party to go to for a friend from school (Naia). It was at Lynnhurst park and he was in heaven!! It was so fun to see him interact with so many friends from school! He just about tackled Naia when he saw her--they ran to each other so fast and gave each other the biggest hugs, it was so sweet!

Bishop and Fiona were inseparable! They played at the park together and when they were swimming they were ALWAYS together! It was fun to see....but a little bittersweet, as Fiona will be moving to California soon. Bishop and Fiona have been together at Kindercare since they were both babies!

After the birthday party we had to hustle home to get ready to bike to the Bandshell to meet some Froehle relatives that were in town! Aunt Pat was in town and we had a picnic with some other aunts and uncles as well! Luke's cousin, Melissa, gave the kids a book The Frog in the House. Bishop LOVES it and it is perfect, as Bishop is so excited about frogs! Thanks so much, Melissa, you are SO thoughtful!

There was a parade around the lake while we were there, so we got to see a lot of funny cars and bikes that were decorated. The kids each got a necklace too, so that was fun! We were all exhausted from the fun, busy day. We biked home and all crashed!

Sunday was a little more mellow. We went to church, brunch, played at home and the kids napped. They both slept for 3 hours! I don't know the last time Bishop took a nap at home, let alone for 3 hours! They were exhausted! When they got up we biked to Minnehaha Falls to eat dinner at SeSalt! It rained a little on our way, but ended up being a beautiful night to be outside! The kids danced to the music while we waited for our food and then we played at the park! It was the perfect way to end a great weekend at home!
