Whew! Having fun can be exhausting!
Sunday morning we got up early, packed the car, said our goodbyes, to friends, and the beach, and headed toward home. After a week of perfect weather, it was raining Sunday, made for not so fun loading and driving, but I'm soo thankful it rained then, and not earlier.
We drove as far as my parents' house on Sunday, enjoyed an evening visiting them, complete with homemade peach crisp at my brother's house. Monday we visited my grandma, then headed on home.
Tuesday, Lexie and Ashlyn spent the day helping a friend from church declutter her attic. She said they worked hard all day carrying stuff down the 2 flights of stairs. They seemed to have fun doing it.
My parents also came up on Tuesday to spend a few more days on "projects" around here, so Tuesday afternoon through Thursday afternoon was focused on those projects. Little Bit was thrilled to have Mama all to herself during music lessons Thursday morning and I have to admit, it was nice to be able to just read a book during the big girls' lessons instead of helping Little Bit stay quietly occupied :)
Before our beach trip, Rodney had promised Little Bit a "date" to Chuck E Cheese when we got home. Thursday was the first night that worked in his schedule, and worked well since Mama & Papa had gone home that afternoon. Little Bit invited her sisters to come with her to win her tickets, and they obliged. Rodney said the big girls did a great job of adding to Little Bit's enjoyment of the evening, and she came home with a whole bag of junky little toys that she was super excited about LOL.
And so, finally, it was Friday and we could start catching our breath abit . . . before more busyness this week.
