Mollie and the girls are in Iowa for a few weeks and they also came for a visit last week for a few days. They live in Phoenix and we don't get to see them very often and we were excited they were coming to see us at the new house!
I REALLY wanted a picture to document Cece and Elle's first bonfire and this is the best I could get. (Monica I need help with my new lens!) These city girls really weren't real impressed with the fire and even less with the lightning bugs! I think they just needed more time in the "country" to get used to it.
Because they both have birthdays in July I made a berry poke cake for them to have while they were here. I LOVE their pretty hair in the low light. They are one of the few girls I have seen that have hair blonder than Selah. Mollie says everyone asks in Phoenix if they're from Norway! No just Iowa.
Everyone having a Popsicle after the slip and slide.
The two oldest Cece and Jack, would you believe she just turned six and Jack is about to turn eight? Brad noticed they are already leaning apart trying to get away from each other, I guess that time of girls and boys playing separate has come! His game the whole time they were here was to hide from all of the girls and then jump out and scare them so they screamed. They did... a lot!
The three little ones. Cece and Elle LOVED the trampoline, it's so hard to get pictures of that though!
We watched a few shows from downstairs that they put on for us through the railing upstairs. Selah loved that they love to do shows, she was in girl heaven for a few days and I was so glad to get the chance to catch up with Mollie while the kids played. It was a very laid back couple of days just hanging out at the house AND sweet Mollie helped me after I got sick one of the days, only your best friends do that and don't run for the door! I loved having them here but maybe next time we can visit them in Arizona... in February!
