Happenings

While it looks like Addie came down with green measles, the spots are actually the result of an afternoon painting project. We've made bubble prints a number of times, but it's never been this messy. I used store-bought bubble solution rather than homemade solution to mix with the paint, and it sprayed everywhere! Oh well, lesson learned. Addie thought it was fun and she liked seeing all the green spots on her face!

It's been a season for kids here at our house, so I haven't had much time to sit and blog. We had little friends from church spend the day with us on Sunday, and Addie has absolutely fallen in love! Here are a few pics from that day (the day ended with a bonfire at another friend's house, where the kids were supposed to eat s'mores but were too grossed out by the brown toasty marshmallows to try them!).



J&J bucketheads and the boys in the playhouse - it was so sunny outside!

Addie is in love...she's been asking for her new friend since Sunday! Today she hoped he would come to her house and she wanted me to pick out something very pretty for her to wear for him. :)

This morning we had lots of kids over for the morning to give some moms a quick break, and this weekend we are headed to the beach with dear friends we knew in Maryland. There will be 8 adults and 12 kids ages 5 and under! Jenni calls it a vacation - I'm calling it, well, we'll just have to see how it all turns out! ;) I'm sure there will be pictures.

i do hope you have fun at the beach and come home feeling like it was a vacation! :) addie is so cute and harrison very much enjoyed playing with her. i'm happy that such a wonderful little girl has eyes for him! :) he was quite disappointed this morning when he realized that he was going to school and not to your house to play with your kids. it's tough being a big kid, isn't it? :) and she did look very pretty in her outfit this morning!

Tell Addie I understand how she feels - Harrison looks like my beloved husband when he was that age. They are all so cute!
