Weekend Fun!

I had a houseful this last weekend - Jaime, Jessi and their 4 kids along with Robby and Jill were here so we could all do Jill's baby shower!

Thursday night found me frantically cleaning and child-proofing the house - this does take a while, putting up all the things you don't want the little boys to run off with and actually taking some things into the storage room - it's just easier than saying "no" all the time!


We had a great weekend - the boys loved playing outside when it wasn't raining and Rayna discovered she COULD actually jump rope and spent a lot of time doing just that - but after a while, the thump-thump-thump of the jump rope hitting the wood floor just got to be a little much and we had to move her out to the deck!

Kylan's and Papa's birthday were celebrated - Kylan wasn't much interested in the gift we got him at first - but the next day after we put it together, he really got into the hang of it! His favorite toy though was the "ocean" and he spent a long time just staring at those fish that would go by!





Coffee on the deck was fun - it was a glorious day out and we just enjoyed sitting around the table while Papa was busy swinging the kids! Mackenzie loved being outdoors and I spent a lot of time just walking outside with her. And since Rayna didn't get to do her scavenger hunt during the shower (it rained), her and I did it on Sunday and walked the property at least a couple of times trying to find all the items!

Was I tired by the time they all left on Sunday - exhausted was more like it! But I loved every minute of having them here and am already looking forward to the next time!
