Eden overnighter

My Brother Patrick and his wife Michelle invited

our family up to a Condo in Eden for the day and night

in celebration for his 29th birthday!

The girls of course loved swimming. Except Sierra.

She is still not to comfortable with the water. All

she wanted to do was wrap up in her towel and eat

fruit snacks.

Just in the past few months Paige has become more

comfortable and independent with her life jacket. She

loves swimming.

Most of the time we played with the pool toys.

Seeing how many times we could hit the other person.

After swimming my brother bought us all the

Pizza, Bread sticks, and salad we could eat. How nice to

go to a party for someone else and they pay for the food

and entertainment. It doesn't get much better then that!

Of course I would expect this from my computer guru brother.

If you did not know, which I didn't the candles represent 29

in binary.

Me and the girls after swimming.

We had so much fun! I usually sit back and watch

everyone swim. But I actually swam and got my hair

wet. Probably because my mom and sisters were there

to help watch the girls.

So we have been working with Sierra and she

finally figured it out. The day before her

2nd birthday. Holding up just two fingers

is a challenge for such a little person.

The condo we stayed in was very nice and accommodating.

There were enough bedrooms and bathrooms for all of us.

In the morning before Sierra could even wake up Me and

Brandon bombarded her with HAPPY BIRTHDAY.

Grandma is always so good to read to my girls.

Even if it's early in the morning and with the biggest

princess book the girls could find!

Again my brother and his wife, Michelle treated

us to a yummy breakfast of Pancakes, eggs, bacon,

hash browns and toast. Something I don't make everyday.

It was Sierra's birthday so we brought up some

presents for her to open. We started out side.

Then it began to sprinkle and then down poor.

So we ended up back in the condo.

Of course big sisters always have to help try

out the new presents.

The men did not want to wait out the rain and

decided to launch water balloons.

The rest of us decided to watch where it was dry.

I thought I would give it a try and it is quite harder

then it looks. Men are so much tougher.

Before we headed home we let the girls play

in the tunnel and the log fort.

We had a great time!

Thank you Patrick and Michelle!
