More Fun In Yuma

Image
The following day, we stuck around the house in the morning, got our workout in and let the kids play and the little ones napped. Then we headed out to the Castle Park...such a cool place! It was super crowded, but the four adults managed to keep track of all the kiddos:) They had so much fun on the playground, swinging on the tire, and climbing on EVERYTHING! Then we headed down to dip our toes in the Colorado River and explore a bit more. On the way home, we stopped for ice cream. As soon as we got back to the house, Katie and I ditched the kids with the dads and ventured out on Black Friday to Old Navy. We were searching for outfits for family pictures the next day:) It was actually not too bad and we got some great deals!  We ended the evening with a great treat for the girls and Michael...a dip in the hot tub!  I think this is the only picture with all 6 kids in one frame!  Michael was so sweet with Tommy, but Trigger wasn't a fan, so they stayed separated for

Friendsgiving

This year, we headed to Yuma, AZ to celebrate Thanksgiving with some dear friends. We met Katie & Gray back in North Carolina, and despite the many miles of separation, have managed to keep in touch and stay close. We are truly grateful for their friendship! Within the past year, Katie & Gray effectively doubled their children, so it was a full house! They made room for the four of us and Tommy and we had a wonderful time. The girls never skip a beat between visits and immediately become best friends all over again. It is really sweet to watch! Our girls were also excited to spend some time with the babies! I'm not sure Michael and Grayson knew what to make of the crazy girls, but it was FUN! We left Oceanside late in the afternoon on Wednesday, and after a nice drive, arrived in Yuma by 9ish. The girls settled in for bed with Chloe and Nora, and the adults enjoyed some catching up in the hot tub! We awoke early the next morning and spent the day playing and cooking.
