'da boys

Yesterday we had a fun-filled day with friends from our previous school. And saw other friends there as well! We started out at Thunderbird skating rink for 'Stroller Skate' with Rhile and Reese. Colin and Rhile have been friends since Kindergarten. Reese is Camerons' age. The older boys would not pose for a good picture for me. They kept skating away and ducking out. When I asked them to skate backward for me they were finally willing to not hide their cute faces.
Unfortunately they took out a girl in the process.
They didn't see me in this one and it looks like they were gettin' their groove on!
The 5 yr. olds posed like superstars!

We hit McDonalds afterward and intentionally went to one without a playland. We didn't want them to get too stimulated from excitement. There were more things to do in the afternoon. But it had something even better for these guys...

even if you haven't played before it's still nice to try- right Austin!

Then we swam at the recreation center pool. Colin has also gone to school with Cade since Kindergarten. Once again Colin is trying to get away from the camera. Cade was my little helper by keeping him reigned in.

Cameron wanted to play with Jon and he was able to join us as well. What great buddies!

Austin loved the attention Cades' sisters gave him. Camryn and McKenzie love being with him. They even got him to sleep in the stroller before we left! The boys miss these friends so much and I appreciate their mothers' being willing to get together with us. I too, enjoy the friendships I have with their moms as well!

Luckily grandma lives close by and we changed in/out of our swim gear at her house. So, we got to see her as well!

Thanks for your comment on our blog Mindy. It is great to hear from you. I hope you guys are doing well. Out of all of the girls I was ever able to convince to spend time with me you were always one of the sweetest and nicest. You married a good dude and have a great looking family. I remember playing volleyball with your husband and he was pretty darn good. Tina is a sweetheart. Someday we will bump into you guys and you will get to meet her.
