We have had a busy last couple weekends. First, Randy & Holly's Shay came home from her mission and is now engaged! We are so excited for her. Holly is such a hostess and always thinks of everyone. She has bottles of bubbles fof the kids...they were in heaven. I always realize when we go "home" that family isn't just people you are blood related to but people you love and they love you for who you are good and bad. That makes Randy & Holly our 2nd parents they have been there throughout our whole lives and continue to include us.
Gracie was thrilled when she got her own bottle...although it didn't last long before she dumped them out.
The other day the girls had gone down to play and it was very quiet I went down and found them on Hallie's bed reading and eating fruit snacks. Warms my heart...love my girls
Friday my parents got her for a fun filled weekend. It just so happened that Friday was also Nic's 24th birthday so before we got settled in for the night we met at Nic's for some cake and ice cream. The kids had a great time pulling all the cushions off Nic's couch into a pile to play in while the adults visited and hang out.
Happy 24th Nic...love ya girl
Kyle did a great job making Nic's cake. We had to laugh because he wanted it to be a surprise that he made the cake so he made it at Jills on his way home from work. Nic's favorite cakes are rainbow chip and german chocolate. I guess when Kyle went to the store all her could find was funfetti so he bought cherry chip. On Friday when Kyle and Nic were out for the day he said, "what's your favorite cake....say cherry chip with cream cheese frosting." I'm still not quite sure if he believes us that there is such a thing as rainbow chip
And when grandma is around you better believe the kids aren't far behind and there usually isn't free space on her lap...Friday night was no different.
Saturday after Hallie recital(post to come) we hung out and bbq'd it was just nice to relax and let the kids play and well grandma even got in on the action and showed the kids just how to act like a monkey on the tramp needless to say they spent a lot of time laughing as did we as we watched.
Hallie has really become interested in her dr kit, assessing, and fixing people. She quite frequently makes whomever is around her patient. Which often times is fine with me because I get to lay down and she "takes care" of me. Rigs and Kimber became her next victim...I mean patient.
We had some late nights enjoying time together and our kiddos showed it the most poor Luke fell sound asleep while eating and didn't change.
