Friend Farewell

Some of our good friends are moving several states away.  :(  So we were happy to have the opportunity for their kids to spend a few days with us last month while they went house hunting.  We did a lot of fun things while they were here.

One afternoon it was too rainy to go out so we had a treasure hunt and some other games.  One of the games was the 'sock steal' game.  Two people play at a time.  Each person puts on two socks and then they try to pull the other person's socks off.  The blanket is the boundary.  Fun fun!

After our rainy day fun, I found both little boys asleep on different couches.  

She was dressed like this almost the entire visit.  :)

 One afternoon the kids picked a big bowl of mulberries so we could make jam.  Then we had the jam of waffles the next day.  Yum!

On Sunday morning the little girls both wanted princess hair.

I took eight kids swimming by myself one afternoon.  All of the ones facing the camera were with me.

We had a campfire and s'mores one night.

Yum!

This funny guy hauled this across the field so we could burn it.

We had fun with shaving cream two different days.

This is a 'shaving cream sandwich'.  Ha ha!
