Slumber Party

Casey and Gavin came to spend the night at our house. My kids were SOOOO excited. The kids are all at such great ages and play so well together. The boys do their thing, the girls do their thing and then they all play together too.

We started the evening with dinner, then off outside to make a delicious dessert of "mud pie". Those kids can play in mud forever and have such a great time.

Then the kids took bubble baths and settled in for a movie and popcorn. The girls watched intently while the boys watched bits pieces between motorcycle racing, wrestling, and sword fighting.
Then off to bed . . . .well sort of. I let the kiddos stay up till 9:40 and then sent them off to bed. The girls were in their sweet dreams by 10pm without a hitch. Now the boys . . . .well, that's a whole other story. 10:30 - chattering away, 11:00 still chattering away, 11:30 STILL chattering away! Finally at 11:40 one of the boys probably couldn't take it anymore and fell asleep - thank goodness! Now one would think they would sleep in - NOT!!! Girls up at 7am, and the boys at 7:30 raring to go. Oh well, my kids had a great time and love it when those kids come spend the night.
