A Fabulous Day In Jefferson City

On Saturday morning, my kids woke up early... just like any other day. We had the entire house up by 7:15. This did work out ok though bc it made us get up and get moving. Grandma, Anne, Mary, the kids and I headed to Panera Bread to start our day. We had delicious bagels and stuff and then we stopped by Walgreens to get crazy girl a "Yaya". We had left hers at Anne's and we were all about to lose it listening to her screaming and crying about it. This worked out perfectly bc as we pulled into see where Jeremy works, Mom and Dad were pulling in too. They had spent the night in a hotel in St. Louis then drove to Jeff City that morning.

Charlotte was so excited to see "Gigis!!" And to be quite honest, so was I. Charlotte can be weird and mean to Mary and treat her more like a sister than an adult. Sawyer will go to Mary but not ALL of the time. He does always go to Mom so I was relieved to have more help.

Charlotte loved all of the tractors at Jeremy's work.

She had kind of a problem with Jeremy... as she does with most men..

But she still got close enough for a picture.

After that, Mom, Dad, Grandma, Mary, Anne, the kids and I headed to Anne Marie's school that she works at. She teaches preschool at a Catholic school in a not so great part of town.

The first thing Charlotte found when she got there was a baby.
Sorry it is blurry.

All of my pictures of her are blurry bc she wouldn't stop moving.
She was SO EXCITED.

Sawyer was so happy to be reunited with his Papa. He wouldn't leave Dad's side.

If only Sawyer had a mustache.

Crazy dancing to Kids Bop!

Sawyer was finally letting Aunt Meme play with him.

I love his little shirt.

He kept just finding his Papa.

Grandma just sat and watched the crazies play....

Coloring with Aunt Bare...

After going to see Anne's school, we headed to her house for lunch. We had a delicious BBQ place for lunch. Then us girls and the kids went shopping at a store that is specifically just in Jeff City. I got a pair of jeans, Anne and Mary got something, and Mom bought the store... JUST KIDDING MOM.

We then headed to Anne and Jare's, got ready REALLY fast and packed, and we headed to downtown Jefferson City for dinner.
We had 5 pm dinner plans with members of Jare's family. Then, afterwards, we headed over to Tommy and B.K.'s house for dessert and a party.

The spread was amazing. B.K. made it beautiful.

Charlotte was amazing at all of her favorite foods!!!!

"Cupcake please???"

Love this one.

Dad and Sawyer. Both look drunk. Neither one was.

B.K. knows that Anne Marie LOVES chocolate martinies so she made some.

Love this chocolate bar. So funny!!

This was an idea B.K. found on Pinterest. So funny.

Dinner was amazing (Italian) and dessert was phenom. B.K. really did great. Jeremy's family came to celebrate. They are all so nice and remembered us from the wedding. We finally left for home around 8:30. I was so happy that it didn't rain the entire way this time. We made great time. We met Aunt Didi at a gas station in Jacksonville around 11 pm. We dropped Grandma off then Mary and I finished the drive. We got home around 1:30 am. It was a LONG day but we were so happy that we were able to be there for Anne.

Thanks for a great weekend, Anne!! You are amazing.
