Summer fun

What says summer like nights and nights of sleepovers with friends? So we dove right in this week and had "marathon sleepover" at our house. I thought more than once, why am I doing this to myself? And then I would...

...hear the roaring laughter from the playroom of girls playing some game, that surely had never received such laughter. Thanks Avery.

...watch a group of girls bask in the awesomeness of real "mermaids" swimming in the springs. What a delight. Thanks Egyptia and Nhyzingha.

...peek into a room with four blondies dancing like there is no tomorrow, and singing at the top of their lungs, enough to make Miley and Carrie proud. Thanks Emma and Maddie.

...see more naked hineys in the pool than should be permitted, EVER! Thank goodness for privacy fences. Thanks Abbie.

...visit friends for a day of giggles, games, movies and fun. Thanks Alma, Chloe, Taylor, Elijah, Josie and Jake.

...cook more pancakes, fishsticks, popcorn, and serve more popsicles than a budget allows for one week. Fishes and the loaves folks...miracles.

...still have time to catch up on my recorded shows and wallow in blogworld.

Many are our blessings in this family. Friends add a spice that cannot be found elsewhere, and we crave its taste.

Come Monday, I will hear voices wondering "who is coming over today mom?", but that will only be if she wakes up and finds my bed already made.
