This weekend was fun and exciting, not so much with the quiet and rest which we had planned, but oh well!
Saturday we finally got our house, yard and garage back in order from the BBQ last weekend. We also put a major dent in the mountain of laundry that had been piling up. My parents were then nice enough to watch Ajax for a few hours so that Dave and I could have a date night. We did dinner and a movie (The A-Team), while Ajax and my folks went to a BBQ with family. Ajax had a blast with his cousins and loved playing with their toys. Kids always love other people’s toys better.
Sunday we headed to downtown Detroit for the Detroit River Days, a large summer festival along the river. It was a beautiful day and the crowd wasn’t that large. Ajax had chicken shawarma and part of an elephant ear for lunch. He also took his first ride on a carosel and loved it (I had to kind of drag him off it). He also played in some interactive water features that were pretty neat. We also got to explore two large ships, one of which belonged to the coast guard; Ajax loved the control room with all the flashing lights and switches. He was pretty beat on the way home and zonked out.
