Visitors from Little Rock

Olivia and Katie - the Princesses
Playing outside
Katie and Sarah

This weekend, Jim (father-in-law), Michelle (sis-in-law), Katie and Sarah (nieces) visited. We were so excited for them to come up from Little Rock because we haven't seen each other since April and May. Olivia was so excited all week and waited patiently for Katie to arrive Friday night. Alex was bummed because Nicky couldn't come due to a father-son camping trip that was already planned. I tried cleaning my house but didn't have a lot of energy to do everything I really wanted...but they still love me anyway right? We went to the Shaw Art Fair on Saturday and just all around relaxed. I made my mostaccioli for dinner and made Jim his favorite chess pie for dessert. We had some friends over to visit and the evening was very enjoyable. The girls played so well together and had a great time playing dress up. While the adults were visiting, Alex got to try his hand at babysitting Sarah. He did a pretty good job and made $6. On Sunday, they headed back but not before some playtime outside...it was a beautiful day. Olivia was sad to see Katie go and can't wait go visit her in Little Rock. Wish they weren't so far away!

  1. Wasn't it a great weekend to be outside. I bet the kids had a great time. It seems like even when we live close there isn't enough time to get together. It is nice to have cousins that you're friends with.
