silly fun

We headed to Cedar Falls on Saturday to see and hang out with Aaron, Trish, Lane, and Emerie.

And let me tell you...these kids had LOTS and LOTS of silly fun.

I've decided if we lived in the same town, our kids would be BFF's. :) And even though we don't, I just love watching these 3 (or 4 when Will joined in the fun) play together. Keatin and Emerie did lots of girly things this time around (I think Emerie was at just the right age to listen to everything Keatin "suggested" they do...much to Keatin's delight). See evidence of silly fun below. :)

Keatin and Lane, modeling Lane's football helmets.


This is when I suggested I get a picture of the girls in all their "pretty" things. One little picture turned into this...

...and this.

And just when I thought I had convinced Lane we would take a boy picture next, he flew in front of my camera. :)

Ah - the prettiest, sweetest girls. :)

There are the handsome boys!



This morning, after all children were up shortly after 6 am, it was time for breakfast at the picnic table.


Before we headed back to Ames, we stopped at Josh's family friends - Rick and Marilyn Schmitz. Josh grew up with their family...I think he would describe their 4 kids like his own brothers and sisters. Keatin and Will did great at their house, and Keatin was calling Marilyn "grandma" by the time we left! :) Somehow, although both our children were super tired and it was a very cold, windy 40 degrees outside, Josh and Rick thought we better take a look at their 4 wheeler...and not just look, take it for a few spins. Here are Josh and Will...


...and Josh and Keatin.


Thanks Schmitz's for the hospitality!

Here is hoping everyone has an enjoyable, great week!
