Weekend Playdate!

Christian had a playdate with his "girlfriend" Megan on Sunday and they had such a blast that I had to blog about it. But first, a bit of history on this duo. Christian and Megan have been going to preschool together for the last two years and have been an "item" since very early on. Within the first few weeks of starting school together Christian has referred to Megan as his girlfriend and told us on several occasions that he is going to marry her. His devotion has never wavered.

The afternoon started with a game of dress-up. You know it's serious when he lets her wear his all time favorite Knight's costume!

Next on the afternoon's agenda was a trip to Lake Accotink park. We'd hoped to take them on a canoe ride but they were having a boat regatta and not doing any boat rentals on Sunday. The place was packed though and they had a bunch of other fun stuff to do. The favorite activity for these two was the water shower archway. I didn't think we'd ever get them out of it.

But the playground eventually sounded fun so off we went...

and would you believe it, there were two swings open at the same time so we commenced to swinging. For any of you who know Christian well, you know that he will swing until the cows come home as long as someone pushes him. Megan seemed to be loving it too.

Eventually they got hungry so we headed home where they dined in the front yard and then ran through the sprinkler for a while.

The rest of the afternoon was spent cruising the neighborhood in Christian's Jeep. I think it was Megan's first "car date" and was definitely the highlight. Christian even let her drive a few times.
