BFF

Mandy and Jason came into town for a wedding and were able to stay with us for a couple of days.  (not long enough, I will say) :)  but we were so happy to have them here!  Even if we had barely moved into her parent's house, literally the week before.  I felt bad that we had boxes everywhere (which Jason decided to unload some while we went to the park.)  I kept calling him my "man slave".  Thanks, Jason!

  

I was so happy to see beautiful Avery again and to meet Cierra for the first time!  She was born just a month before Andee so of course they are destined to be BFF's just like their mommies!

It's so fun to have Mandy around.  It's like nothing has changed since jr. high.  We get along so well and she makes me laugh all the time.   I wish we lived closer to each other but it's nice to have someone I can call whenever I need to share good or bad news and know they will never be judgmental.  She gave me some precious hair advice (see below) as the two girls are twinners!

 I think they finally decided it was okay to take a picture next to each other.

Peek-a-boo

Trey and Avery

Good Buddies!

While Mandy and Jason went to the wedding, we took the girls to the Dinosaur Museum.

The kids had a blast. 

Always a favorite, is the "erosion" model where the kids can get their hands dirty in the sand and water.

Cierra decided the dinosaur toys were a little more fun then the dirt.

 And while Avery and Trey may have had a rough start to begin with...

they quickly became best friends and would not stop hugging and giggling with each other!


*side note* -in fact, Trey told me later that he was going to marry Avery.  So cute!

Shark Attack!

And of course the kids enjoyed digging for dinosaur bones.

Some other fun moments

*I couldn't quit laughing as we were driving home in Jason and Mandy's truck.  The girls started singing, "Ahhhh..." because the back seat would vibrate making their voices jump all around.  Cierra chimed in, in her deep voice, and then Andee in her high soprano.  It made us laugh the entire ride home!

*We watched "House Bunny" with Mandy and Jason one night.  Trey started watching a little with us before I made him go to bed.  The next day out of nowhere he said in a raspy voice... "Andee".  (You would have to see the movie to understand but I couldn't quit laughing!)
