As mentioned before, we have been so lucky to find really good friends! I love that we all get along so well ( well kids fight but still love each other!) husbands too (Clay talked Anna's hubby's ear off at the labor day BBQ, it started with a love of the NY Mets!). We can plan things, or get together spur of the ...hour!
Gabby and Stella, only 3 months apart. They could almost be mistaken for sisters and are so sweet and cute.
This guy chased the turkeys again, this time at the zoo. he also went after the peacock and geese.
We go to the zoo and let our children explore and learn about the animals. Almost closing time is the best time, zoo is mostly empty and the giraffes and elephants are eating their dinner right on the other side of the glass!
We have play dates, and help with each other's kids when needed. Seth is teaching us about all things trains... we are teaching him the art of DRESSup!
Last saturday we spent 7 hrs (roundtrip) in the car to celebrate Geo's 5th birthday at Chuck E Cheese. Gabby has been friends with him longer than she has had a brother, they have both grown so much since we met all those years ago in Japan! Friendship travels well!
The kids miss out on family not living close and moving around. Having good friends absolutely makes it better. This is our "geographical Gramps" Dennis, he lives across the street and if he is outside, we talk to him!
This is one of my favorite pictures of the summer. A rubbermaid, a sprinkler, 4 kids. They filled it up and decided all of them could fit!

I'm so glad YOU and the kids have found good friends in VA. xo
Hysterical pictures. I love the tub one. But the one of Gabby and Geo is priceless. You can see how happy she is to be with her friend. Do I remember right that when I came to visit in Japan Geo had moved ? And she was sad ? It's amazing that she hasn't forgotten that friend!
