Crazy Kids

A nice weekend

We took Stratton to see “Sesame Street Live: Elmo Makes Music” Friday night. We didn’t tell him about it till Thursday so he was excited! Arden got to stay with Gigi and Pops Friday night all by herself! We left for Memphis about 4:00 pm. Stratton was on his best behavior the whole night. He didn’t even ask for any of the junk toys and stuff they sell. He did ask for a snow cone, but after explaining that it was way too cold in there (it was freezing!!) to be eating cold ice, he was fine. He did get hungry before the second part started but once the show started back he was fine. (This is after he consumed a huge bucket of popcorn and a pepsi).  Afterwards we ate dinner at Firebirds and it was about 9pm and I was worried Stratton would be tired and act out. But he was really good! He ordered a hamburger with Mac and cheese and fruit and ate everything but the burger. Go figure. It was about 11:30 when we got home and that stinker was up at 7am!

Jarrod went to one of his friends deer camp/cabin to do some work on the cabin’s front porch. So after a few chores Stratton and I headed to Hickory Ridge to spend the day and to pick up Arden. The weather was so nice! Finally its getting warm! We spent the morning playing outside and then had lunch and ice cream at the Dairy Bar in Fair Oaks followed by a long nap (for me too) and then we went by to see Nanny and Papa before heading back home just in time for a bath and bedtime!
