What a fun, fun weekend! Sue and I picked up the kids on Friday evening, Andrea joined us on Sat, Mom and Dad joined us on Sunday and Jason and Holly arrived on Monday making the fam complete. It was a full busy weekend, but loads of fun. Just a quick run-down of activities. Let's see, there was jump rope (Emmy is the queen of jump rope!), line soccer (Andrea and I one on one is a sight you have to see to believe), Red Rover (Andrea about took Emmy out. We all ended up on the ground laughing till we cried. When we asked Emmy if she like red rover, she replied, "Not so much." This made it all the funnier), 4 square, baseball (Elijah is the master of this game. When I asked him how his season was going, he replied, "Great! I'm the best one on the team." And so humble too!), Frizbee, and the list goes on...
Sat. night we cooked out around the fire pit which was lots of fun. Emmy had a smore disaster, which if you notice Sandy in this picture, she had a nice bite of that smore in Emmy's hand while we were taking this picture.
Emmy helped Aunt Andrea make an incredible peach cobbler dessert to go along with our homemade ice-cream on Monday. It was delicious.
Did I mention a squirt gun war? That was lots of fun!
Zeke enjoyed squirting himeself more than anyone else.
What a crack-up!
Andrea enjoys the smores by the fire!
Zeke helped collect some sticks for the fire. Funny how the little guy brought the biggest sticks!We also did some swimming. The weather wasn't perfect, but we made it work.
The weekend was perfect. The kids were a hoot and I loved every min. of it.

Those are the memories that last forever. The kids will grow up and then one day out of the blue you will pull out those pictures and they will all remember that day. Glad you had the weekend. You have the perfect place.
Wish we all lived a little closer.
