Fun Weekend

We had a really fun filled weekend...
On Friday night we took Emma to the All Aboard Diner for dinner and she LOVED the trains. She kept talking about the "choo choos." After dinner we went to Downtown Downers Grove and enjoyed checking out the car show and sidewalk sale.
On Saturday, we took advantage of passes Dave got at work to go to the Morton Arboretum. We really only spent time in the Children's Garden and Emma had a lot of fun. We ended up buying a family membership for the next year. It will be one more thing that Emma and I can go do during the week and I think we will really enjoy being able to take little trips over there to explore.
Sunday was another action packed day....... Sunday morning, we went to church and Emma did great in the nursery. She hardly even notices when we leave and she has so much fun playing that she almost doesn't want to leave. I had my first experience as a lay reader and survived :) Sunday afternoon, we took Emma over to Julie's so we could go see Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince. Emma had a blast playing with Jack, Kyle, and one of their friends. Dave and I were a little disappointed in the movie and how closely it followed (as in it didn't) the book. Even though we were disappointed in the movie, we did enjoy being able to go out on our own for a couple of hours.
