Weekend Wrap

What a great weekend we had!  It started out a little rough as we traveled west, stopped for supper and realized we had NO MONEY.  My debit card was cancelled as part of the Target debacle and I haven’t received my new one yet and Wrex never carries a wallet, so when we met up in Sterling, he jumped in with us, sans debit card.  Sigh.  Thankfully, we had a Visa giftcard and some generous friends who let us write them a check and spotted us some cash.

It was cold and snowy all weekend, which made a great atmosphere for snuggling babies!  Look at these sweet girls!

Sawyer was in heaven!

Sadly, I spent all my time snuggling and zero time taking pictures.  She was just so warm and soft and cuddly – I just couldn’t keep my hands off of her!

We had to make a stop at Wal-Mart to grab some baby food for Mr. Wryder and they had some really fun carts!

They thought this was too fun!

Seriously, that was one of the highlights of their weekend!

We had a little pizza snack on Friday afternoon and Wryder tackled me, literally, for the crust.  The kid’s an eater!

Oh, mom – this is great stuff!

We popped in and saw the people Wrex used to work for.  Their kiddos are SOOOO sweet to my kiddos.  They had a ball while we were there!

Aren’t they cute?!

We stayed with some dear friends – who spoil my kids rotten!  They are some of the kindest, most generous people we know and this trip was no exception.  They have a wonderful, peaceful, comfortable home and they drug out all the toys they could find for the kids AND let Sawyer decorate cookies.  Is there much better in her world?  Nope!

Every good decorator works shirtless, right?!

It was a fast, fun weekend!  We never get to do EVERYTHING we want to do or see EVERYONE we want to see and sometimes that’s hard on me but we try our best.   I guess that just means we’ll have to return soon..

Rhoades’, Johannes’, Stukas’, Allbrittens – you’re on our list!
