Well we have had a fun, wonderful weekend! But I'm getting ahead of myself!
We started out our week like normal - kids with school, piano lessons, track and field and lots of fun. Dan and I have some friends moving to the area and the husband drove in with their things on Thursday and the wife and kids flew in this weekend - we wanted to make sure they didn't starve and had Dwayne over for lunch and dinner and sent him home with food.
Anna had her 6 year old well child visit on Thursday and we found out that she is a healthy, happy well adjusted, smart girl - but we knew that all ready :)
James is ALL OVER the place - he is very mobile and pulling up on everything and starting to walk around the edges of things. He is also a very happy and easy going baby (at least as long as he is fed and not tired) And he officially has a tooth!!!
On Friday, we took off to Utah to spend the weekend with Paul and Candace and their family. It was wonderful - Eileen and Anna spent all their time hanging out with Annmarie who is about Anna's age. Aaron spent all his time playing with Cannon and Christian and leaning how to be a boy with Nerf guns and dinosaur costumes. Evie spent all her time with Genevieve who is about her age and James spent all his time with their pre-teen daughter Bianca who is an awesome baby sitter! It was so fun to watch them play together and get along so well. When we had to leave to come home, Eileen kept saying "I wish we could come here more than just once a year!) We were all sad to leave! It's fun to watch Dan with his brother - they are very alike in their sense of humor and their interests. I love Candace and the example she sets for me - she is a wonderful mother - creative, loving, patient, talented - but then again - I married into a wonderful family of women!
We stopped at Little America on our way home - turned out to be the perfect lunch stop - decent food - cheap ice cream and a play ground for the kids to get wiggles out, and even clean bathrooms!
