playing

we stayed all day new years day and just played...

the kids enjoyed the Wii that the Fogarty's were borrowing from her mom :-) {new to my kids! i think we have at least a year before we will have "one of those"}



ej is SO great at coming up with games for the kids to play...he had them entertained for a while with this parachute!

a movie with popcorn.

and i basically talked and listened and talked and laughed.
heaven for me.
ali is such a dear friend...such a great listener and one of those people that really cares to understand you. she is such a gracious hostess...to welcome our crew into their home! even after they just hosted christmas AND she's pregnant with their 3rd baby! i just enjoyed sitting and sharing my heart...things God has taught me...things i'm struggling with and thinking about. it was just refreshing to have such a safe place to share and be honest. thanks, ali!

and leah and ellery came back over in the afternoon to hang out for a bit!
leah brings a spark to a room when she enters it.
her friendship has been such a blessing to me, too!!!
it's so nice when your friends get married and their spouses become dear friends, too!!!

got home late last night and we are just enjoying a nice day at home...trying to soak each other in before "real life" starts on monday.

it's like single digits outside...super windy...i think a nap is in store this afternoon...
