The Weekend

We had such a fun weekend, even though it was a scorcher and I'm already counting down the days till fall weather (around here - that's November!)

Friday our dear Texas friends (from here and here) came to visit us, and we had the best time with our EIGHT kids!

Saturday evening we had a big spaghetti dinner, and then Camryn and Sophia had a sleepover.

The girls were SO excited about the sleepover - it was Sophia's first and Camryn's second.  They drank tons of chocolate milk and painted their nails, and at 11pm when I went to sleep, they were still giggling.

Saturday was so, so hot.  We took the kids to the splash pad.

Wyatt just sat in the grass and playing with a lens cap - that is soooo fourth baby, right? I mean, with Sophia I would have had a whole bag full of toys!

And then we grilled for dinner.

Other than almost burning down the house, it was all a smashing success.

Everyone CRASHED that night!

Then Sunday we had a nice, mellow father's day.  I'm so thankful for the fathers in my life - my Daddy (who sailed off to Portugal on Sunday from NYC!), my husband (the best BEST Daddy I could ask for for my kiddos), and my Heavenly Father (who spoke to me through a wonderful sermon and many "ordinary things" on Sunday).

We got Davis a lighted Kindle cover - because he's been complaining about trying to read at night.  He loved it (and now I want one!)
