The boys and I went to Pinetop last week to give Daddy a chance to study for finals. He is finished his first trimester...yeah! We stayed with my sister and the boys had so much fun. She told me to look at the glass as half full so I won't describe how hard it is for eight people to sleep well in a three bedroom house when five of them are four and under! However with little rest we managed to create some great memories that will hopefully last longer than the dark circles under my eyes.
Ben and his cousin Noah had a great time playing with anything that had to do with the movie cars and having no naps all week. Jefferson found his partner in crime, Avery who is two days younger than he and just as much a two year old. The adorable pair managed to uproot all of my mom's plants in just twenty minutes of alone time.
All in all we had a blast wearing long pants and shirts (as my mother in law would say) for the first time this year. Jeff was amazed that trees turned yellow and Ben learned what a tuque is (beanie in american). Luke didn't miss out either and drank up all the attention Aunt Nea and Grandma would give him.
Daddy got a lot accomplished while we were gone, but said life just wasn't as much fun. The boys were so happy to see him again and wrestle on the bed.
