Last weekend, my fabulous cousin, Teresa, kept my kids Saturday all night so I could take a night away to Branson with my sisters and cousins. I had an absolute blast! It was quite the road trip. I picked up Chelsi and Kyla in Marshfield, Mariah at her house, then we went to Hartville to get Heather. Then we were off! We made decent time, only a couple of bathroom breaks on the way (Mariah!)... The first picture is of my sister, Mariah and myself.
The next one is my sister, Chelsi and cousin, Sharyn.
We went to a coffee shop near Jodee's house to see a jazz band play. It was fun, but we got a little giggly and loud for the jazz scene, so we headed back to the house for some karaoke and guitar playing and singing (...and maybe some booty shaking by courtesy of Jodee and myself). It was SO MUCH FUN! I don't get away from Clint and the kids that often, so every couple of months I need a night off.This is Jodee and Kyla, then Heather and Mariah.
I hope the rest of the girls had as much fun as I did, It was wonderful to hang with an awesome group of ladies.
Sunday morning we went to the 9:00 service at Jodee's church. She is usually singing in the choir with my Aunt and Uncle, but being the fantastic hostess that she is, she sat by us.
We (minus Jodee) had some lunch at Wendy's after church (and a hilarious communion incident, you know who you are...) and then began the journey home.
I was so excited to pick up my little monsters. Speaking of, here is a shot of Laica from earlier today. We were over at Harold and Becky's (Clint's dad and stepmom) and she was playing on the deck. There is a gate at the stairs, making their deck the best (and biggest) playpen I have ever seen. :)
Hope everyone has a fantastic weekend, looks like the weather will be nice and HOT! Caden starts soccer this week, we are all very much looking forward to it!
