Friends Forever

What a fun weekend! Dana and Michael got to come visit us and we had a blast! It was so great to see them. This was really the first time that Kaley was old enough to really interact with Michael which was fun to watch. I was surprised with how much parallel play they did! Well, there was also a lot of taking each others toys and learning to share but it was so much fun! Friday we just hung out around the house and let them play. Michael absolutely loved being chased by and chasing Bayla around the house. It was a fun day!

Then on Saturday Daddy got home so we hung out with him and then went to the pumpkin patch out in Decatur with Dana's sister and her nephew. Kaley was still a little young to participate in the hayride, bounce house, petting zoo or four wheeler led "train" ride but the boys really enjoyed themselves. Kaley just posed so mommy and daddy could take lots of pictures. That night we went to daddy's favorite restaraunt, Genghis Grill, and Kaley and Michael go to share their own bowl (FYI-kids under 2 eat free)! What big kids!

Sunday was more playing around the house and just relaxing. We really had an amazing time and we were so glad to share this special time with our good friends! Kaley got her first birthday present from Dana and Michael! It was a lighthouse wooden ring stacker and a Fisher Price pushable shopping cart which she absolutely loves! She already had a push toy but the grocery cart is by far her favorite! She is getting so good at walking with it. It's hard to believe that she could be walking any day now!

Well that is all for now, I don't want to bore you all with writing so let's get to the pictures.

First night, eating dinner.

Reading time before bed.

The next morning, playing with wooden spoons and metal bowls! WOOHOO, lots of noise!
Pumpkin Patch time! (Yes Kaley is eating hay!)

Kaley and her daddy!

Sweet girl with her pumpkin!
Pumpkins, Pumpkins, Pumpkins!

Last morning play time.

There were many other fun times but I can only post so many pictures. I think bath time was the favorite for both Michael and Kaley but we will save those pictures for an embarrassing moment like their first date or something.

Wishing you a day filled with love and laughter,

Too cute. Seems like a fun-filled weekend. My sister keeps sending picture of Jayden pushing around a variety of toys. They grow up so fast!

We had so much fun. Thanks for having us. As much fun as Michael & Kaley had- I think Michael really misses Bayla too. Can't wait to get together again soon!
