Our Voss Weekend Extravaganza

We had a busy but wonderful Memorial weekend and I wanted to blog about it sooner but now this week had turned into a crazy busy one too! So instead of typing a long wordy blog, I will tell it to you with mostly pictures! Its more fun anyways! Friday night we went out for super and had family time at home. No pictures needed :) Saturday night we went to my cousins graduation party in Millstadt. We had a wonderful night and Ty loved playing with the big kids outside all night. Mom was too busy running after him to take pics.
On sunday we had NO PLANS! Wow, that almost never happens and it was a good feeling. Ty on the other hand was upset that we were just going to stay home.

So after that crabby kid got a nap we thought we would go play at the Lutheran School playground.

(How do you stinkin flip these?!?!?)

Ty was rather bored and thought that a stick was much more exciting that anything else that was there.

Here is his new favorite pose.

He loves hanging on things.

While we were at the playground we spotted this at Josh's cousin, Chad's house. We decided we needed to go check this out.

When we got there, this thing was packed with kids and Ty didn't want any part of it.

But as the kids all started to leave, we decided to test it out. Gavin and Kylie were having fun showing Ty what to do.

He loved this! 

Tara even helped him go down the slide!

After the mean Mom made him get out because his diaper was falling off. He went back to playing with this car that Aunt Jeanie found. Here he is helping Loreli out. Aunt Jeanie and Tara insisted that Ty take this car home, otherwise it would end up in our driveway. Ty has ready put some miles on it since its made it way to White Oak.

On Monday morning Aunt Amanda and Grandma called to see if we wanted to go to the Cardinals game. We had some free passes from Ty's Kid Crew membership. This was Ty's first official Cardinals game.

I didn't get to many pictues of this, well because Aunt Amanda was along and she always takes pictures so Mom gets lazy. We had a great time even though the cards lost.

Dad took off on tuesday, which is a rare thing. I thought we should do something fun, so off to the zoo.

We borrowed a Zoo Card from a family friend and scored free parking! We also got into the children's zoo free, which I was happy that we didn't pay to get into.

It took some time before Ty warmed up to the animals. He seemed to enjoy the water animals the most.

"Hey, look at this!"

 We thought we would attempt the Carousel ride but I should have known better. I held Ty the entire time. Once it started moving he didn't even want to touch it. Oh well, it was free thanks to the ZC!

The peguins were the most popular animal by far. He loved the little ones splashing around. Josh wasn't thrilled when he got wet, but too bad!

  We ended our day with a train ride. Ty loved it! We probably could have spent the whole day on that thing. And guess what... it was free too! The only we had to pay for was our lunch and we got a discount on that with the ZC!

Here's my baby giving his best "CHOO CHOO"

And of course an attempt at a family pic. Not the greatest but I don't care because we had a great day!

So that its for our crazy long weekend. Now I need to stop blogging and start getting ready for our next long weekend/week. Happy Packing!
