Visit With Katie and Nikki

One of mine and Jessica's best friends, Nikki, came to visit with her daughter, Katie, all the way from Minnesota for a weekend. We met Nikki when we were 1 year old and have been best friends ever since.
Elizabeth was in school for about half of the visit - so she missed out on a lot of the fun :( !
First the boys taught Katie all about the Wii - they had a great time - but none of them knew what they were doing so they pretty much stayed on the same screen and jumped up and down until the time ran out.
They spent tons of time jumping all over the couch cushions,
and we attempted to ride the train with the kids, but it was closed. We headed over to the park instead.

Isn't Katie such a cutie!?!
Our kids are all within 4 months of each other so it was fun watching them play together.
Our great big mountain climbers.


I thought this was such a sweet picture!
Later on in the evening the kids had a great time playing in the yard and sandbox.The kids all hung out and watched a movie (and a couple of them fell asleep) while Nikki, Jessica and I all did some crafts downstairs.
We played at Jessica's house - the kids hung out in the closet playing with flashlights.

The kids also had a fantastic time playing in the bounce house in Jessica's backyard.

Jackson learned how to say "cheese" now!



We had such a great time with our friends! Thanks for coming to visit Nikki and Katie!
