Arkansas Trip

This past weekend, my parents, the girls and I all headed up to Arkansas for a visit with family. The girls were SO excited to see their cousins. My cousin, Michelle, was having a baby shower, so that's the main reason we made the trip up. What a fun weekend we had. We left Thursday afternoon and arrived at Stephanie's (my cousin) house around 11:00pm. The girls only slept in the car for about 45 minutes, so we all were exhausted! No one fought me on going to sleep that night. Friday was a fun day filled with playing outside with Levi, Emma Grace and Mallory. They have kittens, a new puppy and 3 horses. Camden and Claire got to help feed the horses, too. With five kids, there is bound to be chaos and craziness. Friday afternoon, all the kids were outside where they were playing on the swingset. Mallory was apparently standing on the top step of the slide and Claire was right below her, when Mallory (who is wearing big girl panties)pees right there. Luckily, Claire had her coat on with her hood up over her head, because Mallory peed right on the hood of her coat. Claire starts crying, Mallory starts crying and, as all of this is going on, Camden starts crying because she got bit by the dog. WOW!!! Can you say three-ring circus?? Saturday was a bit more calm. We went to run some errands and came back for a much needed nap. The girls and I slept great. When we woke up, the shower was about to start. There were lots of other kids at the party. Kenlee and Jack came, too. Camden and Claire had so much fun playing, eating cake, drinking punch and playing some more! Thanks Arkansas crew for such a GREAT weekend! Can't wait to meet Baby Wright!!

Three Ring Circus! Hilarious! Bless your heart! I bet you are still tired! We need to get together again when things calm down a bit and it warms up!
