Weekend of Fun

So the Geiter household is kind of exhausted this weekend. Grandma and Grandpa left today (sigh). We were very busy this weekend!
My parents arrived on Thursday night and we all sat down to a wonderful dinner together. Pork chops and mashed potatoes. Yum.
Friday morning my parents ran an errand and once they came back, mom, Paighton and I headed to Holiday Mart. Holiday Mart is a show that is put on by the Kansas City Junior League. There are over 100 vendors that sell their goods. Anything from Christmas and home decor, clothing, jewelry, baby/kids items and food. It is awesome. We spent 5 hours there and were shopped out by the end of the day. It was a GREAT day. Mom and I got some fun stuff, and of course Paighton got a few things too! :)

Saturday mom and I went to the craft store and Ryan and Dad hung out at Bass Pro shops. Then Ryan and I went on an actual date on Saturday night. Thank you Grandma and Grandpa!!!! We went to see "Law Abiding Citizen" (my review: a VERY dark movie-I felt like I needed to go watch cartoons to cheer myself up!) and then went to Old Chicago for dinner (also yummy!). It was nice to get out as a couple, but I won't lie, I did call home during dinner to check on Paighton. What mommy wouldn't? :)
This morning topped off a great weekend with a trip to IHOP! No Sunday morning is complete without pancakes. (I see a theme for the weekend: FOOD!) It started to rain later this afternoon, so we have been laying low tonight.
I do have to post pictures of the creation that Mom and I did this weekend. At Holiday Mart this lady was selling the cutest bow hangers. They were boards covered with fabric and had strands of ribbon down the front for the bows to attach to. Mom and I decided we could make one of our own! The following is what we came up with! I love it and will be hanging it in Paighton's room tomorrow!

Notice that it is full of bows already. This could present a problem. :) But I love it and I am so glad we did it! It was pretty easy~Thank you mom for your help!

That's about it from us! I hope you all have a great week! We love you all!
