Staycation with BFFs

Morgan, Cedric, Gabriel, and Elizabeth spent a long weekend here with us. It felt like a vacation because all we did was have fun! We stayed up late, watched movies, and ate lots of food. Uncle Mike was home too, adding to the fun. Bizzy is in love with him and he always provides extra entertainment. He built a HUGE fort that covered nearly the entire bonus room---except for the corner where Mom and Morgan spent most of the weekend sewing. Morgan has become a pro! They made 3 dresses and a skirt for the girls. I even got in on the action filling bobbins and stitching a little. Travis and Cedric hung out on the porch listening to music until who knows what hour. And the children played non-stop. We visited Miss Kim's pool and had a great time swimming with her and Shannon. We grilled out, took naps, and rode the golf cart. Gabriel had a blast riding Tyson's 4-wheeler!! He was so good at it...I have a feeling he may ask Santa for one of his own. Mom, Morgan, and I even snuck away to do a little shopping---which turned into some Christmas shopping! We looked at our Disney photo albums and shared favorite stories. Morgan bought the kids something Gabriel had seen on an infomercial that turns water into slime (Squishy Baff).  It was a huge hit. Then they played in the sprinkler until it was almost dark outside. We were having so much fun, they decided to stay an extra night. The boys took a ride on Uncle Mike's boat while the girls rested. We went over to my Aunt Pat's pool for a potluck. Everyone had a great time. We were sad to see them leave and can't wait until we are together again!

 

 

I am so happy that these 4 are growing up together! I love them all so very much!!
