Yesterday we spent the day at the Roelofs. I started babysitting these girls when Nic was 3 and Mar was 7 months. The first time I met them all it just felt right. Like we were meant to be in each other's lives. Now Nic is 16, and Mar is 13. I'm so grateful that we're still part of each other's lives. I use to joke with them when I was babysitting that one day they would babysit my kids. That day has come, and I love it. My kids love, love them. They always have so much fun with them. They live out in the country (which just means 5 minutes outside of the city) in a beautiful house with a huge yard. They have pets, pets, and more pets. They have I think 4 cats, a big bird that talks named Lulu, a couple hedgehogs, and a guinea pig. We have no animals, so the kids love to be around their's. Hayley is very curious about the cats, but when gets right next to one she whines and isn't sure about it. She loved the bird. She was not afraid to touch that thing. McKenna wasn't too sure about the hedge hog. She was playing with it on the floor but if it came near to her she'd freak out.
Other fun things the kids did:
played the wii, had popsicles, had a snack, played with remote control monster trucks, on the skateboard, chased a rabbit, Ty rode a bike while the girls went for a ride in the wagon. What a fun day.
and #flashbackfriday...here's a bunch of pics of the girls and us on our wedding day. Just don't mind the hideousness of some of the pics...thankfully photography has improved a ton since we got married.
After we got home and I put Hayley to bed, I wanted to get a picture and document that Nate and I are reading Harry Potter together. Ry wasn't at home so I had Ty and McKenna try and take a picture with my phone. Here are the takes. Trust me, there are a lot of them.
Okay, I lied. I must have erased all the other one's already. I had about 10 more. they would be blurry, or my head would be cut off, or it would be a pic of just the book, and so on. Finally McKenna got the very top pic. Its blurry, but it was definitely the best one. Guess we need to practice with these kids.
Then Nate took this one...
Pretty good.
