Girls and their Moms


Saturday we woke and made our way to the park. It was a nice park by a lake with lots of equipment for the girls to play on. We were there for a short time and soon snack time became the priority so we all sat down and ate (we do that a lot). Shortly after that we headed to the pool for a little fun. The girls just love swimming. It really isn’t my favorite thing to do (ok, maybe it is the whole bathing suit thing) but you just can’t deny those smiling faces.


After a good nap, we went swimming again (apparently you can never get enough) and then the highlight of the mother/daughter weekend began….the slumber party. I’m sure you have never seen or experienced such craziness. We first used some fabric paint and the kids designed a tote bag to use for many of their mwcc outings. Once that room was in shambles we went to another room and set up stations for the girls to go through. We had hairdo station, nail painting station, tattoo station and red dye hair spray station. There were girls everywhere and all tasks were completed in record time. We then sat down for a Chinese dinner and before we got the phone call to “please quiet down” we took the girls outside and let them ride bikes. Once again, you would not want to be one the road with any of these kiddos but they had a great time (give or take a meltdown or two). We wrapped up the evening with a few of the girls who stay up a little later watching a movie and eating popcorn.
