We are quickly realizing one of the best decisions we have made lately was to buy a cabin out at the river to spend our weekends during the summer. The kids have been having a blast this summer and this weekend brought even more fun with an impromptu sleepover. Madison's response to finding out their friend was staying too was absolute elation. It was the twins' very first time having a friend stay for a sleepover. She pointed out that I always tell them they are too young, so she was surprised and very very excited. The girls enjoyed s'mores by the fire, took out the telescope and found Saturn, and got (a little bit of) sleep.
They woke in the morning and got straight down to some serious work at painting nails (little girls) and a few games of bumper pool (big girls). You may be wondering at this point about our other child....Harrison pretty much just steered clear of all of them and kept pretending the whole thing wasn't happening :).
Their mom and dad headed out and joined us on the boat for the day and they all enjoyed some tubing and kept trying to learn to water ski (still a work in progress for all).
My friend Amber captured this moment of Corey with his girls. Love it and love how much they adore him!
And we ended the day with a simple pizza dinner....and even that wasn't fast enough food for Miss Reagan. She was beat and fell asleep without taking a bite.
We told her to go ahead and head to bed. She stopped in the entry to get a blanket out of her bag from the weekend and then we found her in the cubby. Sleepy, sleepy girl!
Kennedy thought it looked comfy and tried to give in to her exhaustion as well. (she however, managed to get a second wind and stayed up a little bit later before calling it a night)
It was a fantastic weekend
