weekend recap

Nate and I were lucky enough to have couple of super cute visitors this past weekend. My niece and nephew, Meagen and Zander, spent two nights with us.

We spent a lot of time at the park and playing around the house. However, I knew eventually we would need something new to mix it up. Luckily, I had thought to grab these large pieces of  scrap paper from work for the kids to draw on.

They LOVED it, and it kept them entertained long enough for Aunt Julie to reclaim her sanity. 

Meagen took time to draw a picture of all us, including Cooper. I helped her spell the names by each of our pictures. It was amazing to watch her get excited when she knew how to write some of the letters.

Please quit growing up so fast baby girl.

The paper also made an excellent telescope.

As always, we enjoyed having the kids come to stay.

 Cooper was ready for a nap in his Papa's elbow by the time the kids left. He definitely loves being our only "child".

We hope you all had a great weekend as well!
