Saturday we had a party with my family at the South Ogden Splash park, a great park with 2 huge playgrounds and a fun splash pad. While we were at the park, Ivy was trying to climb up on the picnic table to eat, her hand slipped and she fell face down on the edge of the metal table. Her poor eye swelled up so fast and started turning black and blue. While I was holding ice on Ivy's eye and trying to get her to calm down, Erin and Hunter started screaming. They had just run into each other. Hunter's forehead got Erin smack in the eye! So in a matter of minutes both my daughters ended up with huge black eyes! ( I tried to take pictures but you really can't see the black and blue coloring in either picture.) On Sunday morning both girls looked WORSE! Erin's black and blue goes all the way down her nose and cheek! Everyone at church teased us that we beat our children.... Sure looks that way:)
After the fun party at the Splash pad. Dave arranged for babysitters for mom and the kids and took me out to dinner. It was nice to get out just the two of us (it doesn't happen very often!) We went to Red Lobster (which I know is a huge sacrifice for Dave since he can't stand seafood!) After dinner we went and did a little shopping at the mall. What a fun and busy birthday weekend! Thanks everyone!

That splash pad looks like sooo much fun. I didn't know Dave hates seafood! (So do I. Ben loves it.) Happy Birthday! I'll send you a birthday card as soon as I can afford stamps. :)
Happy Late Birthday Mindy!!! Looks like it was a fun one...black eyes and all! Kudos to Dave for arranging a sitter & taking out his sweetheart! I'll have to be sure and mention that to Ryan...maybe he'll pick up on the hint
