Preparations

We have been busy, busy, busy getting ready for our trip!  Rhonda sent us all of these great clothes and toys for the kiddos.  Yay!  What a blessing they will be!

We also got these Suh-WEET blankets and pillows, made by some girls raising money for an orphanage in China!  You can see them here.  Yep, that's all for Morning Star with Bill and Lynsay!!

And baseballs and mitts

We also have cereal 

 And watches for the house mamas at Betty's (soon to be former) home

 And then, the greatest surprise of all.

Noelle and Brynn showed up from Florida with an entire suitcase full of shoes!  Yahoooooo! 

Of course, the best part was having them here! 

Seth tried to teach Brynn some of his crazy dancing. 

Brynn is too cute for words! 

And then the packing became the "pack kids" game! 

Check OUT all those shoes!! 

In addition to packing, we had some FUN!

But it was a chilly day on Saturday.

So it was fast fun! 

 This strange game lasted a while.

Ahhh two year olds....

Sweetness! 

When Seth got up from his nap, he and Noelle had some snuggle time.  Awwww.  I think he likes her! 

On Sunday, we opted to go to a Pumpkin Patch, after church and after errands.

Unfortunately, my boy fell asleep just before we got there.

And then was impossible to wake up!! 

But we had fun anyway!!

 Brynn rode the VERY fast merry-go-round

And a pony

(all while Seth was still snoozing....) 

Ah, maybe this will wake them up.

Where is Brynn?!?! 

There was a petting zoo 

That's my boy.... 

Pumpkins galore! 

Pretend trains.... 

Silliness 

Car driving.... 

And, of course, trains! 

Watch out world! 

Our kids are driving!!!

We are SO grateful for Noelle and Brynn (and George) and that they could come celebrate with us and pack and prepare and just have FUN. What a total blessing!  My family ROCKS!!!!
