Whipped Cream Hats

Last weekend was the first weekend we felt totally free, nothing to do, clean, or set up in the house.  So Jess decided it was a good day to take a trip to see the capitol building. Neely looked cute for the day.



 

 


 It was a pretty chilly day, and windy.

Except when Neely knocked over a super heavy post inside the building that was there to protect the huge emblem on the marble floor the post fell onto.  No damage was done, but my blood pressure wouldn't come back down for like an hour.  I felt like security guards were going to tackle us at any moment.

Thankfully they didn't, so we headed to find some lunch.  We tried S and B's Burger Joint and it was amazing.



Mine was a french onion burger and rocked my world, and I tried Jess's and it was just as good.  The fries were awesome too.  They tasted like the ones at our beloved Flancer's.  So if you're coming to visit us at any point, expect to end up at this place. 

Then we walked across the street and got cupcakes.

I loved it just for being in an old beautiful house.

 The cupcakes were okay too.

Then we finished the trip with one of my favorite things, a drive through an old neighborhood.







It was a foggy day, which made the Devon tower look pretty cool.  Neely gets so excited any time she can see it.  She thinks it has something to do with her baby cousin Devynn.  She usually calls it "Devynn castle", probably because she assumes Devynn is a princess, but once in a while calls it "Devynn towa".  

When we were home that night, the kids begged for "whipped cream hats".

A few days earlier they were begging for a squirt of whip cream.  Jess jokingly told them "if you help me....(I can't remember what it was, probably clean the living room up or something) I'll give you whipped cream HATS."  They got all excited and we realized they thought he was serious and that having a whipped cream hat would be hilarious.  He tried to tell them he was kidding but they begged and begged.  So he said since they'd already had their baths, we could do it another night right before the baths. 

So, Saturday night when they begged, we let the weirdos have their whipped cream hats.



They were overjoyed, and then they had their bath.
