Sleep Over

We had all the cousins who live here in Texas come spend the night last Friday. We had pizza for dinner and then started on carving pumpkins. Sierra, who is 10, was helping me get all the tops cut out and getting all the seeds and gross stuff scraped out. The youngest ones lost interest due to all this work and were just running around the yard playing and that was fine. Once we got them ready to go most everyone came back over and started working on tracing the designs onto the pumpkins by poking little holes with the pokers. By the time we got done it was dark and everyone moved into the house. All the girls were whispering and giggling and trying to get the boys to go in another room. It took a while to get everyone situated and settled down, but eventually everyone did go to sleep. After breakfast on Saturday morning and playing around the house we loaded up and went to the roller skating rink. It was the first or second time for everyone to skate, so there was a lot of hugging the wall. But, I think they all had fun. I wish we would all get together more often. I love for them to get to play and get to know each other better. Here's who was here.

Sierra - 10

Breanna - 9

Timothy - 6

Aubree - 10

Cross - 6

Cole - 3

Lil Jesse stayed the night at a friend's house, as you can imaging being 14 he really didn't want to be in the house full of kids!
