{Wednesday 4.20}
Ah, a day filled with extended family. A couple weeks ago we arranged to hang with the Water's for the afternoon. Many phone calls later, we re-arranged to come at dinner {which was awesome; Gran Jan is the bestest cook} and spend the night. Winning!
Activities included bunny hunting...

...walks in the neighborhood...
Side note: Seconds before I snapped this they were all huddled together. Aunt AM looked at each other and said "That's be a great picture!!" and I held up the camera, put my finger on the shutter button and...they pretty much heard the click and dispersed. PhotoFAIL.
...trips to the park...
Nice bench, Garrison... ;)
...rides through the Grandmother's neighborhood in the back of a pick up...
Ha, no words for Quinn's enthusiam...
...More bunny hunting after a delicious dinner only Gran Jan could make...

Day 2 of the epic cousin sleepover! After the best bagels made with love by Gran Jan, numerous turns on theWii {in capes on less} and turns playing computer games, it was off to the ECU park for us!
Apparently it's fun to scale the slide in this picture. I thought it was a good way to fall and break all 276 bones in your body, but I guess that's just me.
Swings are fun, swings are cool. Swings are the only time Garrison let me take his picture...
Except for this one. I guess he was just being nice... ;)
Behind the park was a trail, and the boys & I were the only ones who ventured away from the people to go explore.
We found a dog pen in the back of someone's lot and instantly fell in love with each and every one of the pups.
After we'd had our share of screaming littles {it was apparently park day for the preschools around here}, we headed back to the house to listen to the rumbles of thunder and play a little Park & Shop. And, of course, make funny faces for the photog... ;)

If you can believe it, we had another sleepover; this time with Emily and Andrew! God blessed us with plenty of precious time with family and friends last week, and I'm so grateful for it.
As always, a yummy dinner was followed by a round of Life {pictures of the spouses below}, a movie, and general silliness at bedtime. Apparently, when I get tired, I tend to lapse into giggle fits, and Katie's history of what she ate that day wasn't helping my case. I think it was midnight before we ever fell asleep!

Part 2 of the Nichols' sleepover. It was long after 8AM before I ever woke up, and I stumbled into the boys room to see Andrew and Clark playing computer with Emily fallen asleep on the bed! :) After a yummy southern breakfast, we sat and watched AI highlights and generally vegged out because of our late night. Many minutes later we realized we were supposed to leave RIGHT THEN, so we threw on some clothes and out the door to our house we went!
When we got back, it was the first mowing of the season, so we donned our mowing clothes {read: basketball shorts and an oversized t-shirt} and off I went. And, to this day, I'm not allowed to mow anything except the field, which is basically an acre with nothing on it. Imma thinkin' it's because of THIS incident, but you never know... ;)
Phew, you're all caught up on my glamourous life. ;) If you're still awake, come back over will you?
