"Stay-cation" for Ma Ma and Pa Pa's 35th anniversary

Well, this weekend was Ma Ma and Pa Pa's 35th wedding anniversary so in typical Cordia fashion, we did a stay-cation at the Ameristar. All day Friday was spent at the pool until the country concert at Riverport that night. Saturday was more time at the pool in the morning and then off to a graduation party. At the party, they had a mechanical bull ride. The boys thought it was a horsey and were all excited until they realized it wasn't real. They weren't too fond of it when it moved either. Maybe they can try again when they get older.

At that same party, here is lil Emmy. I think she drank too much bottle.

After the party, we went down to main st. in St. Charles. Bo was excited to see the cho-cho's there. But then he was just as disappointed when he found out that they didn't move. He just didn't understand that. We did however walk the entire train track. "Bo likes train tracks". After the walking we met the Cordia clan at the ice cream shop where we all ate a treat. After the ice cream, we headed back to the Ameristar and into the arcade. The boys were pop-a-shot champs.

Sunday was another morning at the pool and as you can see Emily was exhausted. She fell asleep in her wet bathing suit, in a wet towel, and in her pack-in-play all poolside.

I would have more pictures of Bo at the pool but he didn't exactly stand still. He isn't a big fan of being in the water except on the steps. Then outside the water he just keeps running around with everyone yelling at him not to run. He goes from one side to the other yelling at Mario, Gaby, or Kinley to play. He also likes the hot tub. I think more because it is a small pool that he can walk around in then the warm water.

Also, here is a picture of Emily celebrating her first Father's Day with her Daddy with pizza and ice cream that Sunday night at Bo's House.
