Big Sister Weekend!

Erik and I decided to take Kya for the weekend. We called it Big Sister Weekend! Kaleb is just over two weeks now and we wanted to give Jana and Jeremy a little time with him as we gave Kya some one on one attention! It's difficult to go from being the only child for six years to having a baby brother! Although, she is very excited about Kaleb. She talked about him all weekend!

We packed a lot into a short amount of time. It was a great weekend and the weather cooperated too! We rented movies and had popcorn on Friday night.
On Saturday morning we picked out a new outfit for school (which she wore on Sunday). She's in first grade already! Then we went to Pine Tree Apple Orchard. We enjoyed the wagon ride through the orchard and caramel apples!
Kya and I painted each other's nails.
Then we had "pasghetti" for dinner (Kya's favorite). She actually ate three plates full! We ended the night by making a batch of Chocolate Chip Cookies! And of course, we used pasteurized eggs so we could eat the cookie dough!
On Sunday we went to church. Then we went to the Como Zoo after lunch.
I think my favorite was the Butterfly Garden!
Kya did great and we had a lot of fun!!
