Weekend with Casey

Eli's kindergarten class has a class "pet" and a couple of weeks ago it was our turn to keep the "pet" for the weekend.  So, Casey the Caterpillar came home with Eli.  Eli was beyond excited.  He's been talking about Casey since the first week of school and I am very thankful that our turn to have Casey was early in the school year.  ; )  It was quite an adventure.  We had to document our weekend in a notebook.....here is a recap.....


 Eli was so excited to bring Casey home for the weekend.
 Casey and Eli spent some time coloring on Friday afternoon.  
 Casey colored too.....
 Then Casey and Eli went on a bike ride.

On Saturday morning, we couldn't find Casey anywhere!!!  We looked though the entire house.  It was rather stressful.  I just knew we were going to be "that family" that lost Casey.  We tore the house apart.  It was crazy!!!  Then.....we got hungry and opened the refrigerator.....and there was Casey!!!  I'm not really sure how she got there, and honestly I don't care.  I was just so relieved that we found her!!!  Whew!  Stressful!  : )

 Saturday afternoon, Casey went to Chuck E Cheese with us.  Eli got his 10th purple at school (a behavior chart thing) so his reward was a trip to Chuck E Cheese.  Casey and Eli enjoyed some pizza.
Saturday night we stayed in a hotel.  Due to all his traveling this year, Hunter had several free nights that were due to expire at the end of September so we have had a couple of hotel stays for fun.  The kids LOVE staying in hotels and I find it very relaxing.  : )  Casey enjoyed it too....especially the warm, chocolate chip cookie left on the bed.  ; )
