Old Friends

We had a fun time this weekend!  :)  Our old friends from Illinois came up to visit.  Oh how I was praying for no rain!  We did have a lot of clouds...but the rain held off.  Yippee!!  :)  They got here Friday night for dinner.  We had hamburgers on the grill and a few other goodies to go with it.  We got on Skype with some friends in Ohio and talked to them for a bit.  Then, we were off to the ice cream parlor!  It was very good!

Saturday, after the two boys in our group (my hubby and Ty) stopped to get their hair cut at the all guys salon where we heard they watched ESPN and got warm towels on their faces and massages on their necks......we went to lunch.  We took them to a place to have a grinder sandwich.  Very good sandwich!!!  Then we were off to this place.....

Smiling kiddos getting ready to blast off in their race cars.

The sign says "no bumping"......some did not follow directions in the least!!

You have to click on the picture to make it bigger....Taylor looked like she was one very determined driver of her little race car.  Crack me up!

Vroom....there goes Miss Shelby.  She looked so fashionable in her BIG yellow sunglasses and her Shrek race car.  She picked that one for Miss Karen back home.  :)  Look at her long hair blowing out behind her.  Remember who starts drivers training next month?  UGHHHHH!!!!  :)

There are no words for this picture.  :)

Putt putt golf with a pink ball...now that's what I'm talking about! 

Bumper cars inside....

Laser tag.  The girls are smiling and Ty looks so serious.  HA!

Taylor thought it would be a good idea to put her face in front of the air launcher to feel the air in her face since she was hot.  She did not know that it was "loaded" and she blasted herself with a Nerf ball.  HAAA!!!

Miss Darla and Shelby playing a Nascar game.  They were cracking up!

The kids played boy against girls.  Ty won!  :)

We watched a little bit of this last night on the telly before bed.  I love this movie!  Jessie is my favorite!

Darla and I on the porch this morning before we left for church.  We had such a nice time catching up and visiting and drinking coffee together.  Wish our times with loved ones did not go by so quickly.  I wish I was independently wealthy so I did not have to work and I could play with my friends all day every day.  Anybody know where I could get my hands on a Genie bottle?????  Anybody else have that same wish????

And lastly, I leave you with the kiddos.  It was not long ago that I was pregnant with my youngest and Darla was pregnant with her youngest.  Now look at them.  Where does time go?  They are good kids.  No, they are GREAT kids!!!  And, I am so thankful that we had this time together to make more memories.
