For the kids and I, the weekend started early with dinner with some of my work friends. Harper and Jack had fun with Jan, Judith, Celine and Joseph and we had fun laughing at their silly expressions and squeals during dinner.
Friday night we headed to our friends' the Crain's for an early dinner. Both Harper and Jack enjoyed playing with their friend, J.R., and getting to explore a new place with new toys. Tony and I also enjoyed a great dinner of stuffed turkey, squash, and pecan pie with Blue Bell ice cream, and we enjoyed the great company.
Saturday we bundled up the kiddos and took our loves to the mall- along with seemingly everyone else in Frisco. That place was packed! We tried to get in and get out, but we had a small hiccup when Tony realized that Jack's elephant was missing. I walked the length of the mall to find the abandoned blue elephant, leaving Tony to tend to both babies in the crowd. Lucky for us, the elephant was found and we escaped the madness at the mall. I think I'll be doing most of my shopping this year online- it was crazy.
Saturday night, we had dinner with our friends Heidi and Jeff, and Chrissy and Rob. Harper and Jack did great at the Sterlings and had a good time playing with Madeline. Madeline was cute- she chased Jack around trying to give him a hug and said "Harper!" anytime Harp got close to her. I think the funniest moment of the evening came from Madeline and Jack. Madeline was on a riding toy and was scooting around the house; she scooted all over the place, and Jack followed behind- quite a bit behind- crying and trying to catch Madeline (it was pretty cute).
Sunday we made the mistake of going to the grocery store- another mad house- but we made it home in time for Nana, Pop, and Uncle Tanner to come over. The kids were excited to have new playmates for the afternoon, and Tony and I were happy to have some more hands to help us. Uncle Tanner had to have knee surgery, so he played as best as he could. Jack was interested in Tanner as soon as he walked in the door, but Harper took a good while to warm up to him. As you can see, they were friends by the time Tanner left. Tanner hadn't seen the kids since August, so he was impressed with their new skills and kept commenting that they've gotten so big and they're doing so many new things. The kids certainly were busy. I'll end with some pictures from our day- goodnight!
