Back in Kenosha, Again





Ethan & I went up to Kenosha this past weekend with my parents. Bill had to stay behind because we didn't think it wise to use up 3 days of leave for a weekend. Saving it up so we can have a week or so for Christmas. So Bill & Elvis got a few days to bond...I think they dislike each other even more now....

We got to Kenosha at about 2:30 AM and Ethan was soooo excited to see Uncle Nate. They stayed up until probably 4:30 playing video games. Then E was up at 9 AM! Needless to say he was pretty crabby by the time bedtime rolled around.

We went up to the St. Sebastian Festival (lame). E won 44 tickets from playing games and won 2 mini tootsie rolls, a happy meal toy, and a punch ball. Nice, yes?? Then we went back to Dodo's and played games & had pizza.

Sunday was Steve's birthday party...can't believe he's 20. I must be getting old!! E was being a wuss and didn't want to go in the "cold" water. Eventually he did though, and then of course he loved it. Anything he does with Auntie Heather he loves though.

E got to visit with Maya on Sunday too. It was the cutest thing ever. I got him out of the car, and she was down by her neighbor's house. Well they see each other and both start running toward each other like a movie LOL Then they hugged for about 2 minutes saying "I missed you" to each other. So cute. I feel so bad for making him move away from his best friend. They both cried when he had to leave again, but at least they got to visit while we were home.

On the way home yesterday, we stopped at Six Flags and went to the water park for a few hours. E loves the wave pool! Would have been nicer for me if there wasn't soo many people in there, but he didn't seem to notice or care. He wants to go back with Daddy, so maybe in the next few weeks.

We got E signed up for preschool yesterday. Yeah! I was worried that he wouldn't get in since they are having 1 class for the entire post, but I had Bill go in yesterday (first day of registering) and he got in. He starts on August 17, which is quickly approaching! He also starts soccer on August 10.
