Time with Good Friends

Since the kids had 2 weeks off from school, and Steve had to work long hours, the kids and I decided to take some road trips after Christmas. We seem to do well with last minute plans! Our first destination was back to PA to see some friends. We surprised Auntie E by calling her from the car as we were headed to her house! We were at their house by early afternoon and had lots of fun seeing them. Then we headed to our dear friends house to stay for a few nights (since we will see E and family again in a few days in Winchester). Drew's best buddy Nathaniel and his family kindly agreed to house us - it was a giant slumber party! We had a wonderful time and Drew is already asking when we can go back!

The girls all had fun playing with the American Girl Dolls.

Sarah and Abby also had fun playing with Baby Samuel.

The boys had fun playing Star Wars and Indiana Jones Wii.

We also got to see our good friends the Hinchliffes. We all went to Ringing Rock park where you get to climb all over the rocks and bang them with a hammer. The different sounds are amazing, and the exploring is adventerous. Sarah had a sleepover at their house the second night - very fun!

We also enjoyed getting to see our neighbors and friends the Smiths. While we were at their house we got to see some snow flurries! Thankfully for us it did not stick too much (as we were heading back home that day) - just enough for the kids to enjoy seeing snow.
