Double Dose

What a week we've had. Our house is much quieter this morning, almost lonely. We've had two friends staying with us for the past week and with them gone my kids don't know what to do. We stayed busy and did so many fun things this last week. Here are a few pics. The first morning I rode the bike and Ray ran while pushing two of them, we played in the sprinkler almost every day, played at the park, pizza night twice, had a barbecue with friends twice, had a garage sale, rode bikes, went to the fountains with the dancing bunnies, Kate took her friend to dance class with her and loved it, had movie night more than once, searched for frogs at the pond and ate lots of treats! I think we might take a breather today. As much work as it was I liked having 4 kids in the house, felt full and fun. Plus we've lived next to these friends for over 7 years, our kids have known each other their entire lives, Ray has known them since high school, if not before and we will be sad to say goodbye in 4 weeks. We were glad for the chance to spend more time with them, especially when they all got along!
