Back To Reality

Parents Night Out

Papa, Grandma, Mommy, Daddy, Auntie Em & Uncle Jim

Our Sparkling Cousins!

Jakob, Makenna, Josh & Hannah

After spending nearly a month away with our family in Iowa we are home at last!  The kids and I had such a wonderful time and we didn't want to leave.  What a gift it was to be with the family and to get so much help with the kids.  We kept busy and the time flew by too quickly.  We are so thankful for Auntie Em and Uncle Jim giving up their house for the past month and for Jakob, Hannah and Josh for loving and entertaining our little guys.  It is funny how much kids learn from other kids.  Every night, Hannah, Josh & Jakob would throw on their favorite tunes and dance their hearts out.  Yesterday, we turned on some music and all the kiddos started bustin' a groove and shouting "Hannah! Hannah!".  Sophia is even trying to do some of their breakdancing moves - although it looks more like some Jane Fonda leg lifts to someone who hasn't seen their cousin Makenna's hip hop routine!

After this great adventure, Chris and I, the toys and dishwasher are back to reality (and only being able to play outside between the hours of 7:00am and 7:30am).  We miss everyone like crazy and can't wait to get together again.
