Sweet Friends

There is something about these two little girls that are different. They just LOVE each other different then most toddler friendships. When they play together it is like they were meant to be friends. They share, they laugh, they dance, they play house, they both love Dora, and they both have older siblings. When you watch them play there is no fighting, arguing, or drama...which is not the norm for 3 year olds (especially girls). I'm glad Ainsley found sweet Haven.

Here are some pictures I took while we were dropping off their older siblings for their 1st day of school!

Far away friends.....

My friend Jennifer from Minnesota was here visiting her grandma this summer and we got to spend time with her and her 5 kids. She is a BLOGGER and has a great mommy blog; here is the link if you want to read it: www.mycharmingkids.net . The kids and I got to hang out, swim, and have treats. I always enjoy spending time with other mommies with lots of kids..... we just "get" each other. All 9 of the kids did great together...... they just played & played..... I just kept a good eye on them so they didn't break any of the fancy vases or glass stuff everywhere!

We LOVE our far away friends!

Camp KIDD

My friend Andrea offered to have all 4 of our kids over for a little camp day at their house. The kids were so excited and were counting down the minutes until we got there. I was able to hang out with my friend Veronica that morning kid less. Here are some pictures Andrea took for me since she know I love pictures (I have the greatest friends).

Water Fun!

Over Spring Break we went down to Carlsbad for the week and stayed at The Grand Pacific Palisades Resort. In the middle of the week The Kidd family came down to spend the day with us. All of the kids had a BLAST at the little water park. They spent a couple of hours running, swimming, sliding, and squirting! I love our friendship with the Kidd's because they are seriously the kick-back, low key kind of friends that are good with whatever! Thanks for spending the day with us you guys!
