back to our friends in missouri.

The visit started off with Ladd playing the good ole' horsey game with the kids.

Ike was in LOVE with Reese. He kept tackling her to give her smooches.
Then we would catch him softly caressing her back.
Cute little love birds!

Annie, me, Kace and Elle
We then got into our craft mode and I taught the girls how to make these super easy and super stylish headbands.
Elle was a bad dog in hers!

(Look at Reese playing footsie with him!)

The trip ended at the park.
Of course it was a beautiful day the day we left.

The babies loved the swing.
Reese wasn't too sure of it until we put Ike in with her then she was just fine!

We had the best time being lazy, eating what ever the heck we wanted and making daily Sonic runs for our VDC's (Vanilla Diet Coke).
We shopped, went to the movies and even THOUGHT about going to the gym once or twice but never made it...
why would we... we were on vacation.

Thanks Egan's for having us out again and making us feel at home!
Bentley fortunately stayed home with daddy.
I don't particularly think it is a vacation with both kids in tow.
We did miss them both very much though!

Do we look Fat, Old or Tired? ... We don't think so!

toilet water.

The girls lured Samantha into the bathroom while the adults weren't watching.

When Mel realized "Mantha" wasn't by her side she went to go find her and this is what she found.

The two bullies thought it would be so fun to fill the watering can with toilet water and pour on little Mantha's head. Bentley was holding her in position while big sis would dump.

Manthy was drenched... and she didn't even put up a fight.

Doesn't that still qualify as a "swirly"?

Oh and yes there was pee in the water.
(we are rude for taking pictures before saving her... i know!)
