Down to two

After dropping off the kids to their new family for the weekend, we took these two out to dinner and a movie. You know to soften the emotional blow of missing our peeps.

I gotta say Inside Out was just perfect for all of us tonight. It was just so great at explaining why it’s okay to be sad and that ALL the feelings have a purpose. And tonight we all have some pretty big feelings. Like all of them, all at the same time. Plus it’s 9-11 on top of all that (talked about at school and home). Hello hot mess!

After the movie we went and got some FroYo. Regan had TWO dairy free options tonight. YEA! Also table games are the best.The kiddos had a “sleepover” tonight. Their rooms are just to quite and lonely without their room mates. I have a feeling that we will be having lots of “sleepovers” for the foreseeable future.

Labor day 2015

We got to go check out the Benton’s newly refinished pool.

The new slide is fantastic.

V did great in the pool this time. YEA! And Monkey girl was SUPER mad at me for having left her with her new parents for the weekend. It took her a long time to be happy with me. 🙁

Jon and R didn’t get in the pool. R enjoyed land play and toys. We had fun with family so that’s a win. 🙂 MOV00793 MOV00803

V’s 5th birthday party

V wanted The Little Mermaid for her party theme. 🙂 Last year she would hardly talk to me about what kind of party she wanted. I was super happy to be able to throw a party for her. Her new family came and that was awesome!

This kid was swimming in gifts. See what I did there? 😉

She was pretty excited to be the first one to hit he pinata.

After the pinata we packed up kids for their first weekend at their new house.

Cousins stayed to play which was so nice.

Rebekah was raking me up. The kiddos all played outside. I’m loving the cafe lights on the play place.
