Sleepover At Nana's

Friday afternoon Carl and I decided that we would go to Wynne to stay with his mom and step-dad for the night.  The kids were super excited to go stay the night and it was kind of nice to just get away for a little while.  It was almost 7 when we got there and we had an awesome dinner of BBQ, baked beans, fresh corn on the cob, watermelon, cantaloupe, and cucumbers (my favorite!).  It was so good :)  We had to take a little walk around the block after that!  It was great to get a good nights sleep.  Once I was finally able to go to sleep I don't think I woke up until morning, and let me tell you, that is extremely unusual these days! Nana fixed us a yummy breakfast (chocolate gravy!!) and then we went to her neighbor's house for a garage/moving sale while Carl and T.R. went to Conway.  We got to eat lunch with Wendy, Riley, and Aunt Shirley.  It was great being able to see them.  After this weekend of eating, I definitely have to start that diet ASAP!!
 We had a really good day, but I always feel so lazy when I'm there...like I should be doing something.  We left around 3 on Saturday and had an amazingly QUIET ride back home :)  Carl and I are both so blessed to have the parents we have.  We wouldn't trade them for anything!

Makena was a little annoyed that Carlie was sleeping with her,
but Carlie didn't want to sleep in the back room by herself
so they both ended up here :)

Trey changed his mind on the back bed too, so he slept
on the couch...although I think he ended up on the floor at
some point during the night!

Trey and Riley.  Look at Trey's eyes!!!  This was after
T.R. and Carl left, so he was very happy to have another
boy around.  Riley is probably the sweetest kid I know and he is
very patient with Trey!

Poor Nana's living room was converted to a playroom!
Makena loved her Build-A-Bear and all the fun clothes and shoes.
They have been playing with them all day!

Carlie, Trey, and Nana playing Deal or No Deal

This was this morning when we came home from church.
She is smiling so big because if you look closely you can see her feeding
the kitten a whale!  The kitten was licking all the salt off of it and loved every minute of it.
Carlie the Cat Lady!  We know how she feels about dogs, though :)

Three Doses of Happiness

Laundry piled up, dishes in the sink, phone buzzing with many emails, toys all over the house.......sounds like an absolute perfect time to go outside and relax with my kiddos! Today has been a VERY warm day.  It probably would be more enjoyable if we didn't know that it would more than likely storm tonight!  Carlie didn't go to school today because she was up a lot last night with stomach issues.  She never vomited, but she was very nauseated and has had stomach cramps.  She hasn't felt bad all day, just off and one.  We might be going to the doctor tomorrow p.m. because Sunday night I noticed that she has a little bulge above her belly button, I wasn't concerned about it (really) until her stomach started hurting and she said that it hurt to tough.  Maybe it's nothing, but people keep mentioning hernia to me.  Please pray that she feels better soon.  Also tomorrow is the big day....academic advising.  I remember the very first time I was advised (somewhere a
