Mommy Son Weekend

Drake and I had the best weekend.  We went on a little Mommy Son Weekend Date.  Grandma Lisa came as well.  We had a great time just Drake and I.  We dropped Stella off at Holly's house until Daddy could finish up with work. We went to the scarecrow festival with a couple of friends from the ward. 

Drake and Hunter are pretty good friends.

Drake and I really liked the Michael Jackson scarecrow.

After the scarecrow festival we met my Mom and drove to Salt Lake.  We went to IKEA first.  Drake is now old enough and potty trained so he can play in the play place they have there.  He was so excited and it helped me get some Christmas shopping done and get it done a lot faster.  After that we went and checked into our hotel. We stayed at the City Creek Marriott.  My Mom went with her friend Mardee to the James Taylor Concert that was at the conference center so Drake and I hung out by ourselves at City Creek.

We did a little bit of shopping and then ate some pizza in the food court (That is where Drake wanted to eat)!  It was so much fun to just sit there and talk to Drake.

After dinner we got a cookie from Kneaders.

Then we went back to the hotel and went swimming.  Drake loves to swim and this was the part he was looking forward to the most.

He was so worn out when we got back that he fell asleep so fast!

The next morning we got room service and it was so good!

Then we put on his Jake and the Never Land Pirate shirt and went shopping for Drake some new shoes.

We found a pair of Tom's that are easy for him to get on and off but they are dang cute too!

Then we got in a taxi and went to the Energy Solutions Arena to see Jake and the Never Land Pirates live on Stage.

Grandma got us lots of treats!

The show was so cute.  Drake was in heaven.  He got to see Mickey and Minnie, Jake and his crew, Captain Hook, Sofia the First and Doc McStuffins.  It was the cutest show!

When we got out of the show it was raining really hard.  My mom found a garbage sack to put over her head.... she is a crazy old girl!

On our way home we stopped at Target and of course Grandma spoiled him so more with an Icee and a Jake telescope and pirate headband.

It was an awesome weekend and I am glad that I could go and spend some time with just Drake. It was so fun to spend some time with my mom too.  What a fun weekend. Everyone needs to do this with their kids when they can, it was a great weekend and a memory I will never forget.  I love that Drakey boy so much!

 While I am talking about Drake, I just had to throw in this cute picture.  We went to the fun park with Annie and her kids and the three kids hit the jack pot on one of the games and got like 500 tickets each.  It was hilarious and so fun for the kids to pick out their prizes!
