What a Weekend!

Our weekend technically started on Friday. Katy, Derrick, Derrick George, and Leah stopped by on their way to Virginia. Evan had a great time playing with his cousins and the family got to meet Conner, who is already over a month old!

The boys blew bubbles on the new deck

Leah crawled all over the place

and the boys did some "cheers" with their juice cups

Saturday morning, the boys watched some Thomas movies together

Evan absolutely adores Conner

Our next trip was the zoo for Christina's 29th birthday. Why is it adult birthdays are for the kids these days? In this picture, Cole is looking at the map and planning the animals we are going to see.

This is what Conner did

Evan with his Aunt Christina. Happy Birthday to my beautiful cousin and best friend, who will be a mommy again in December! Here's hoping she breaks the chain of boys on the Hart side of the family.

I took this picture because it was funny. Charlie, my cousin and Christina's brother, had to hold both boys to see the orangutans. There was quite a crowd.

and today was our long awaited trip to see Thomas the Train in Chattanooga. We left this morning at 8:00 AM to make the drive. Here's a shot of me and the boys on the train ride.

Evan has a new love for Thomas. He didn't want to leave but we told him that we can see Thomas again next year. The rain threatened us on both Saturday at the zoo and on Sunday in Chattanooga but we avoided the heavy stuff. All it all, it was a very busy and exhausting weekend. I hope yours was as good!
