Fun family day!

On Friday we had one of those perfect family days. Chris has had to mow quite a bit lately and just get caught up on projects so it was a day when we could do anything all day together. We started off at "A Nice Restaurant" where we used to LOVE to go anytime school got cancelled or delayed for snow. :) They have the best french toast. Yummo! After breakfast we went home and grabbed some snacks (really? after all of that food) and headed to the movies to see Cars 2. We have been talking about Cars 2 for a year now so we were ready. Braden already knew some of the new characters because he plays it a Cars 2 game on the computer. ha! I knew we were crazy for taking Ethan to a movie but I just wanted all of us to be able to go together...and guess what? We actually made it. It was a miracle but he fell asleep during the movie and we all enjoyed it! :)

Braden and Ethan shared pancakes...how cute are these?

This is hilarious....Santa was at the restaurant??? Yes, it's June and yes this guy really wears this out and acts like Santa year round. Just a little fyi, he is the only paid Santa by Coke and has commercials we learned (youtube- forgotten Santa letters). Anywhoo, he ran to his car (that says Santa) and got the boys some toys. It was pretty neat. Braden said all day, "I can't believe Santa was at breakfast. " Me neither!?!?



Then off to Cars....Ethan sat like this through all the previews...then he got a little squirrely



So we got out the snacks...that lasted for a few minutes



Then about midway through he actually zonked out on Chris' chest. Wowie wow that never happens but boy was I glad. He was pooped and I thought one of us would have to leave with him but he just snoozed on through that action packed movie. :)
