Friends

We had the best time on Saturday night at some friends' house. they have 3 girls - 5 years, 3-1/2 years, and almost 2 years. There was also another family there (also friends of ours) with a girl Elizabeth's age and a 1-year old. Anyway, just to say that all the kids are about he same age (8 kids, 5 and under). We had a great time. First, the meal was delicious, even if the kids didn't eat much (it's hard to have much of an appetite when you are at someone else's house and there's fun toys to play with different from your's). Then we went outside and they had a slip-n-slide with a slide at the beginning - oh how fun. Elizabeth and Christopher chose to stay dressed, but Katherine, along with the other kids, donned their swimming suits and had a fabulous time. You can see the pictures. We returned home around 9:30 to a thunderstorm and the kids were quickly asleep. We often say "we should do this more often" after a fun evening like that, only to find weeks and months go by before we can get back together again. I hope that doesn't happen this time, but I feel that it will, with kids starting school. Oh, well. We'll just remember the fun time we had with a smile.
