School Day Surprise

We have been planning a fun over night trip for the kids for a month or so. They had no idea about it....



We picked Savannah up from school after her Fitness Club. She was very surprised to find Daddy, Whitney and Blayne in the car....when she got in we all held the suspense and then Whit and Blayne began to HOOOOWWWWLLLLLL....Savannah got VERY excited! So we headed on our way to....



We had a wonderful time. As you will see in the pictures, we are missing ONE of our little ones. Yep, we elected to leave Reagan behind. She was supposed to spend the night with the Packwoods', but because of fever earlier in the week, we couldn't risk exposing Libby to illness. So, Araenae (babysitter) graciously offered to stay with her. She had a great time! They went to the park TWICE!!! We missed her, but we know that we made the best choice. It was confirmed as I saw twin two-year-olds melting down at story time in the lobby...yep, Reagan was better off at home!
Here is a picture of Libby with Araenae:


Here is a glimpse into our stay.

This was sooooo funny. John and Blayne were playing hide-n-seek. Blayne could not figure out where John was hiding each time. John finally told him that he was going to the top and climbing in the bucket that would dump out. Blayne believed him!!! He did tell it in a believable manner!!!! Here are pictures of them playing.

We had a GREAT time, but it was painful getting up for school today. The girls missed a 1/2 day yesterday as it was inservice in our district. It was a fun surprise. I love to do things like this and get away without them even knowing it is going to happen. We had some great quality time together!
