Monday, October 26, 2009Over the weekend we had so much fun packed into our 2 days. Friday night Mike and I attended a fundraiser for Senior Services. It was good to get all dressed up and have an adult
dinner and chat with grown ups for a while. We also got to bid on some fun auction items so now Mike has some basketball season tickets and we also hope to get to go golfing soon. Landon, Ella and Eli had a blast with their babysitter Lisa. She is always so great and the kids love to have her over to play.

They are twins and turned 4 this
week. They had a really cool party at a horse stable. The kids watched the horses, rode the horses, painted wooden horses, fed the horses, painted a real horse, had faces painted, tattoos put on, threw eggs at a fence to break them, and got to have chicken nuggets, cake and ice cream on top of all of that. It was great. Eli really loved the horses as he is our animal lover.
He rode the horses about 3 times and enjoyed walking up to all of them to try and feed them. Ella rode the horse as well but really enjoyed the painting horses and getting her face painted. Landon was into the pirate theme that was also going on and he colored his own sword. What a blast!!

Our friend Tonya turned 40 and we spent the evening outside playing, eating and roasting marshmallows (or I roasted marshmallows). Landon played football with the other boys there and even
played when it was pitch dark, which resulted in a fat lip. Ella carried her goody bag (from the birthday party) and entertained everyone with her goodies and by collecting leaves. She is the farthest from shy and enjoys talking to so many people. Eli had so much fun just hanging out - as you can see in the picture, Mike says he is "chillaxing" . On Sunday, after church, we visited our neighbors to celebrate their birthdays and Eli's as well. We had
homemade pizza and brownies and played so many games. Ella was still carrying around her goody bag from the party on Saturday but it didn't seem to pose a problem. The kids played oustide on the playset, then inside with all of the games. Eli loves their train table and asked several times today to go to "Bobby's house". It was a great way to wrap up a wonderful weekend.
