Catch up

Here are some pics from our short visit to the ISF last weekend. The Star Boars sand sculpture was pretty cool!
Presley playing in the water fountain, until another kid ran into her and knocked her down then she was done with it.

So my kinda semi-cousin country singer Trent (my aunt is married to his uncle) was back in town playing at the casino in Osceola. Friday night me, Holly, Steve and my dad all went down to watch him. It was fun and we even had some time to chat with him after the show.
Steve's employer had a company picnic on Saturday afternoon! They had Famous Dave's and brought their margarita machine to a shelter up by Saylorville. There were soooo many kids there....and of course, Presley didn't leave our side, she wanted nothing to do with the other kids! It was very nice of them to organize this, they have been pretty good to us over the last couple years.
My dad got us two free tickets for the Saturday night show also, so my friend Cindy and I headed down there to watch him again! It was good to be able to catch up with her on the drive and again we got to talk to him and the band after the show for a while! Fun times!
Today I spent some time at work and Steve had his fantasy football draft (is it really football season already? Where did summer go?).
Presley's new bad habit? Talking on the phone! She has 3 fake cell phones, 1 flip phone and 2 with slide-out keyboards. She tries to hold the phone between her ear and shoulder (hmmm...maybe she watches us too much?) and babbles on and on! Also we are thinking maybe she can be the worlds fastest text messager by the time she is 5.
They say by the time kids turn 18 months they start to slow down and sit still longer. Yeah right, P's almost 19 months and she is in no way interested in sitting still for anything. We have a ton a Disney movies....I keep trying to find the one that will keep her attention for more than 5 brief seconds. No luck so far.
