Happy Birthday Lydia!

Dear Amelia -

I promised a busy weekend and thats exactly what happened.

Saturday, we woke up early. I cleaned the house while you took a short nap. Around 9, Glamma called to have us come over to run some errands. We picked her up and first went to Highway 55 rental and rented a tent and some chairs for the dinner rehearsal. Then we took a little trip to Ridgedale. Glamma bought you a new sweater for the grooms dinner because you are wearing an adorable pink dress but it might be a little chilly. After Ridgedale we went to Target to buy a new highchair for Glamma and Cookies since they left the other one at the cabin. THEN we went to Gram Gram's for lunch with Molly and Owen. Here you are in the adorable sweatshirt that Great Grandma Sherry got you....

We ate a delish lunch and went back to Glamma and Cookie's (Cookie was in Vegas so he wasn't home) because Grace and Wilson were being dropped off for the night. Since Grace is Glamma's god daughter, we went BACK to Ridgedale to get Grace a back to school outfit. Finally we went back to Glamma's for the night. It was Pretty Katie's 30th birthday on Saturday so Mommy went to the party at Bayside. It was a blast. 

We woke up early Sunday morning. Aunty Pam came over around 11 and we did the seating arrangements for the wedding...
Once we got that done, you and I went home! Daddy got home around 430. Sarah and I were off to the fair at 5. We parked, bought our tickets to get into the State Fair and made a B line for the corn stand. As we were getting our corn, Annie called and said "Did she really cancel?" Annie wouldn't lie to me but I didn't want to believe it...we went to the Grandstand where in digital form it said "KELLY CLARKSON CANCELED DUE TO ILLNESS" So sad. I understand she's a human and she gets sick but I was very disappointed. More so that we paid to park and get in the fair, not to mention we are only getting back the face value ($40 less than we paid) and we had such awesome seats. Oh well, life goes on. The good news was I could be home to put you to bed with Daddy!

Today you are wearing a shirt from Norway that your "Norwegian Grandma" sent over to you. She said she is looking forward to having you as an exchange student some day :)

Today is Lydia's birthday! She's going to go buy herself a new dress for the wedding day! Happy Birthday Lydia!

2 more days until Colton arrives and until Uncle Billy comes home!!! 

Love,

Mom
