Our weekend didn't go quite as planned. Saturday morning we had hopes of heading to the downtown farmer's market for pupusas and to the Blank Park Zoo's Adventure Days with friends. Plans changed when we awoke to thunderstorms and our morning started much later than planned. Instead we went out to lunch at our favorite Mexican joint, took advantage of the awesome sales at Merle Hay Mall, and spoiled the kids with new Lego sets at Target. Then we headed to the Minions Movie.
It was Elizabeth's first time at a movie theater and well, she didn't sit still. Kind of a disaster, but the kids loved the movie regardless of Elizabeth's antics. We'll just have to wait a while for her next theater experience!
Sunday was the hottest day Des Moines has seen in two years! We cooled off in the water at Adventure Bay for a few hours in the morning and relaxed at home watching reruns of Once Upon A Time (oddly enough the three year old can sit through an episode of that show).
Next weekend we'll be enjoying a four day, hopefully relaxing staycation. We've already made quite a few plans and I'm looking forward to having the time to do them all!
