It did my sappy heart good

I'm really attempting to finish my posts from Spring Break, but Hope is sick, again.  Her need for me to hold her all the time, has slowed my pace down. But while she's asleep I thought I'd do another post. 

One of the days while in the land of milk-and-honey, we went and spent with Tracey. It was like old times. Kids played outside, Eric acted like 'Old man Reid' and Tracey and I sat around and talked like a couple old hens. Perfection

We spent the night, and the next day Tracey had the idea of taking the kids to this indoor place in Columbus. 



It was free and really fun!



Can you see the boys in there?



At first they kind of looked at that giant thing in fear, but soon they tackled it like they fearless boys they are.



And Hope kept right up with those boys.



I love that about her.



And eventually they made it to the TIP-TOP.



If any of my Indiana peeps are ever looking for something different to do, I highly recommend it.




And while the big kids were being incredibly busy, what was Maggie doing, other than being cute?



I'll tell you what...


She was busy



Showing Gretchen what tough stuff she is.



I mean just look at the form.


Yes, she is adorable. And tough stuff.


I am so thankful for all my friendships, but I'm also so thankful for the relationships my children are building. It was such a sweet day watching these little people having fun together.

It did my sappy heart good.

Old Man Reid - Love it! ha :)

We enjoyed having you guys. You're right...like old times! One of these days, we will be taking photographs of the kids, in high school, sitting with their girl/boyfriends and remember these precious days. SOAKING IT IN...
