The Kentucky Derby

This weekend we went to Grandma's and Grandpa's for the Kentucky Derby. We went down and played all day and CJ had so much fun. We went for a walk in the morning and he explored the garden center of Wal-Mart forever! He was having so much fun walking up and down the aisles looking at all the different plants. We finally talked him into leaving because Mom and Grandma were cold. Later we got to watch the race. CJ didn't really care but he would tell us what a horse said whenever we asked him. There were just too many cool toys out to play with to be interested in watching horses run on the tv. After the race CJ helped Grandpa cook some hamburgers, and Grandpa showed him the new trampoline. CJ has never been on one before so Daddy showed him how to jump, and it didn't take long before CJ was galloping around in circles laughing and having soooo much fun. He didn't want to go in for dinner. We dragged him in kicking and screaming! Later that night we decided to go to Cabela's and look at the fish. CJ is so funny, he really likes to see the fish but he gets really scared sometimes. He was acting really scared once and I showed him that the fish couldn't hurt him, and let him touch the glass and see that he couldn't touch the fish. After that he liked it a little better. The thing he loved the most was feeding the fish. He begged Grandma into buying food three times! He liked throwing it out and watching the fish basically jump out of the water to get the food. It was a very fun day. CJ got to do so many things and was sooooo tired when we got home. He went right to sleep and slept in for mommy and daddy the next morning. It was a great day!
