What a Weekend

This weekend was a busy one. We entertained lots of family and friends. Wes' sister and niece came to town to visit this weekend. On Saturday they ran in a 5k race downtown and then went to the Panther's Fan day. They got tons of autographs and seemed to have a great time. We always like eating at our favorite restaurant, Friendly's. They have great greasy food and ice cream. We were glad Kim and Alyssa could come!

Saturday I had a couple of bridal showers to go to. After getting ready, I passed my baby off to her daddy for the day. It was nice knowing that Rachel was in such good care. Wes said, "she did great and so did he." The showers were great!

Sunday we went to my mom's house to spend time with my two sisters and there children. This was the first time we had all been together since Christmas last year. Rachel had all her cousins and aunts together at the same time, that was a first for her. It was a bit WILD with 5 children under the age of 5. I laughed and thought don't we need a licence to have this many children in a house at the same time?

Poor Ryan the only boy in a house of 6 girls!

Rachel saw all her cousins running and playing. I think she wants to join them.
Check out our little wall flower!

My mom has a house that is about 2500 sq. feet. Somehow we all managed to play in about 1 sq. foot of it after dinner. In case you're counting two children are on the floor.


Wes started a game of Simon Says with the kids. They enjoyed giving commands and having everyone do what they said.

Ryan was so glad to see another guy in the house. He's been surrounded by girls since Wednesday. He latched onto Wes pretty quickly. He'll be happy to see his daddy when he gets home!


Here they all are. (L-R) Caroline age 5, Catherine age 3, Ryan age 2, Sophia age 1, and Rachel age 6 months.
