This and that

We had a night planned for a girls night with the high school friends.  Natalie was in town and we have not seen her forever.  She lives in California and has one little boy and is pregnant with her second baby, but they didn't find out what they are having.  We turned it into a little shower for her because we never even got to see her for her first baby because she was high risk and never came home.  It was so good to see her and all our friends.  It is so fun to talk and hang out and it always feels like no time has gone by at all.  They are so easy to talk to and laugh with.  I am so lucky to have such a great group of friends and I love them all very much.  

We ate at and then went shopping at TJ max and then Ross.  It was fun to hang out longer and I wished we could have had more time to talk and hang out.  

While I was off playing with my friends, Ryan was home working hard on our back porch. he got it all done and made it look so beautiful.  

The kids all had fun playing at Annettes house, going swimming, and playing at grandma and grandpa's house.  

Another picture of the back porch.  We are going to put a third step down on the next pour, so it isn't such a large step on the last one.  

We went to Greg and Jackie's house to see them and hang out.  The kids had so much fun playing on the swing set and in the sand box.  They all were showing off all the tricks on the tramp and the monkey bars.  I tried to do a few tricks on the bars and found out that I am getting old and my mind thinks I can still do it, but my body says no you can't.  

We ended up staying the night at Annettes and my stuff was all still at my parents house so we dressed Max in Joslynns pjs and he didn't even look like himself. …  It was so weird how much it made him look like Adison with a little pink on him.
