busy busy weekend!!

On Saturday the fam went to the Metro NY Hot Air Balloon festival. Wow, what a trip! There was so much going on there. I had no idea the event was going to be so huge.I also didn't think that all of Long Island was going to be there until we ended up in traffic trying to get there, and then more traffic to get a parking space, and then riding a school bus to the festival because the parking was so far. It wasn't until standing in line for a very long time just to get tickets to get in, I realized that there was a gazillion people there that all had the same idea we did! The first thing we did was haul ass over to the Monster Truck show.

So Cool!!!

Add this face and some tears and you get the idea about how Charlie felt about the Monster trucks. He loved them until they turned their engines on and started jumping cars, it was just too loud for little buddy.

Wheelie Competition!

We also saw some MotoX tricks,

and then some BMXers,

and skateboarding.

Got to Represent!

Taking a break from the crowds.

Looking for more excitement.

We decided to get a closer look at the Monster Trucks, with the engines off, Charlie wasn't scared at all.

He really wanted to get closer to them but we weren't allowed.

Kid Rock ?!!?!

Now on to the balloons.......

There were so many balloons to see.

I thought you could only do that in cartoons!

This was a cute one!

As it got darker and the air got cooler more and more lined the sky.

HAMPTONITES!!

On Sunday we went to the Hamptons, la dee da......

Grandma joined us! We dug Charlie a biggest hole in all of the Hampton Bays. We decorated it like a castle in order to fit in with all the mansions. I'm pretty sure the other kids were jealous their parents wouldn't bother digging them such a colossal hole!

We were trekking a lot of water back and forth to the hole, until.....

we dug a little hole closer to the water because the big one was too dry.

Old Macdonald had a farm.......

This is Charlie's newest toy, he is very into barns and farm animals lately. He walks around the house saying ee i eee i (he doesnt' quite have the o part down yet) and chases me around with the Baby Macdonald DVD to watch it all day long.

Look at how he's sitting, too funny!

and that's a wrap!
