New Good Times with Good Old Friends

This past Christmas holiday we caught up with some highschool friends and their families. We had a great time catching up..and we all haven't aged a bit!!

Here's the latest member of our clan - she is ADORABLE!!! Phew - and just in time, I needed me some baby chub in a baaaad way. Don't let her worried little face trick you, she was just deciphering the world, quietly, as she did for the whole 4 hours!!!

....and here is the future babysitter, enchanting and endearing!! It's a full-service group of friends really :) Little brother is enamored and big sis is in hysterics.

and here is third playmate, the 'bid guy' idol, who is so sweet he brough a motorized car to share with little brother. aaahhhhh. Fun to watch them play and enjoy the great kids that they are!!!

But wait?! uh oh? Whats up Lulu??

Oh no...this can't be good, rope, a grown-up and two big kids?! What could it be?!!

Well - not one, but THREE of our toys stuck in a tree!! Long story, but golden rule is don't try to dislodge a toy in a tree, with any item, or toy, you also don't want donated to said tree.

BUT did I say full-service friends?! Oh yes indeed, an hour later, a rope, a half-filled water bottle and perserverance bordering on obsession - two out of the three toys were able to come home with us. Who doesn't love a little excitement! Thanks friends!
