Where has the time gone?

I was going to wait until I got back to Florida to blog but it has been way too long since the last one. I will not be able to post pictures about all our adventures today but look forward to lots of pictures this week.
We have been here just over a week and we have been so busy. I have had so much fun, its hard to go back but we miss Grey so much we cant wait to go back to be with him. Here is all the events we have done while here, and its not over yet!
We flew in Saturday the 5th. Londyn did amazing on the plane! I had people giving me compliments for 20 min on how well she did. I hope it will be the same on the way back. We went straight from the airport to see my sister and her husband. Then went to Grandma Betty's for brunch (which was really good). After spending a good part of the early afternoon there we went home (to my parents) to rest and unpack. That night Grey's parents and brother came over for a BBQ and spent some time with Londyn. They left around 9:00pm and we checked out my parents new addition to their party yard, a projector screen and popcorn machine. We watched a movie and I have to say "We will be there every night until it is too cold to be outside" it was so fun!
Sunday after church Greys family got together for dinner and improv. I laughed so hard I was exhausted and Londyn loved playing with all the kids. Then once again that night we watched another movie outside.
Monday we went to Lagoon. Londyn, being the daredevil she is, loved the rides! She was never scared to get on a ride and she never wanted to get off. I will post pictures in a couple days of her on some rides, it was so cute and entry for her is FREE!!! Totally worth it, and it wore her out. Then there was a movie in the park that night to kick of Farmington Festival Days!
Tuesday was my birthday, so I took Londyn to a Gymnastics class at Flippers. It was so fun and Sarah and Emma were in the same class! Londyn did pretty good for her age and her first time actually having to be in the class and not just wandering. (for those of you who may not know us too well, I used to work at Flippers so Londyn was a gym bug baby her first year + of life). We went boating that afternoon, and once again my daredevil child was not pleased on the tube until the boat was going fast! My dad went as fast as he felt comfortable with her on but she still thought it wasnt fast enough and fell asleep. Rie and I got whipped around and threw in the air for another hour, it was a blast! We went to dinner (sushi) that night and Londyn gave me a great birthday gift. Just as we were finishing up she had a major blowout! it was all over her and all over the highchair, I must say out of all the blowouts we have experienced this was the worst. Thanks to my mom and sister I didnt have to clean it up, they insisted because it was my birthday (okay, I may have whined a little because it was my bday).
Wednesday night I went to dinner with Greys parents and grandparents (California Pizza Kitchen). Yeah for Thai Crunch Salad (would recommend it to anyone!)
Thursday I spent the whole day with Greys family. We went shopping most of the day, his mom went crazy on both Londyn and I. Then had a really good dinner that night and finally played cards!
Friday I went lunch with Jodee and Jenson. Jenson (her new 6 week old baby) is so stinkin' cute! It was fun to hang out with them and we will be doing more of it when I get back. That night was the childrens parade for Festival Days. My dad bought Londyn one of those little cars that you sit in and push with your feet (he wants an electric jeep but she is not old enough) my sister decorated it and they participated in the parade!
Saturday was so busy. I had a booth to set up early that morning for purses then I had Greys grandma sit at the booth while I helped with the parade (my mom has been over the parade for 5 years, and over all of festival days for 2. this was her last year, thank you, and good luck sarah!) Then we hung out at the park all day for festivities and my booth. There was a concert and dinner that night followed by a really really good firework show!
Yesterday my moms family came over for a BBQ and movie in the back yard. It was fun to see everyone.
Today we may be going to the zoo but no final plans yet. It has been a busy week and I promise to post pictures!
