A fun weekend

Here is the only picture I got of Adrian High School's homecoming parade. But Megan liked the horses the best so it's ok. We are lucky, all we have to do is walk around the block to watch the parade. Like last year, we sat with Rosemary Olsaver and her grandparents, and since it was at lunchtime Mike Olsaver and Mark were able to watch with us. Megan liked the beginning when the band walked by and the end with the horses. She had fun and it was great weather.

Later, we went to dinner with the Olsaver's then on to the football game. Megan had a great time...playing with her spoon! I think she watched the band and the people in the stands, but as for the game, not so much. She did get compliments as I took her home at half-time. The people around us were impressed at her behavior, meaning that she could be quietly occupied while the adults talked/watched. They liked that we weren't afraid to take her places.
Why we had a ton of candy chucked at our heads I have no idea. The high school kids would drive/walk by and say "Cute baby" then throw candy at her. Umm, she's one, not really old enough for candy. But as you can see she claimed two suckers and made sure they stayed with her at all times. No, she did not get to eat them, they just became another thing to pick up and carry.
Opps, I dropped a sucker.
Then on Saturday night, Mark and I went out to dinner with Jon and Jolene Bowles, one of Mark's old coworkers. Megan stayed home with Grandma and Papa Schutte. We had fun catching up with Jon and Jolene, it was good to be with just adults. When we got home this is what we found. Why is it that Megan sleeps so well with her grandparents. Every time she is alone with any of them, when we get home she is either asleep or took a super long nap. Anyways, Megan had fun playing and getting in some extra cuddle time before they head down to Florida for the winter.

It was a good weekend had by all.

Just so you know that it's the grandchildren's golden rule to make the parents sound like fools when they talk about how they don't sleep, talk, or anything else that does not happen until the grandparents are around.

Megan is going to be the social butterfly so enjoy all her new "friends".
