Sarah Comes!

I don't make a lot of friends. I tend to hold off and only open up to a few choice people. So while I don't have a lot of friends,  the ones I do are forever friends and I am forever grateful. 

One of those friends is Miss Sarah, and bonus: our kids tend to like each other. Win win! She moved to Evansville over a year ago and there were tears. However, we have continued our friendship and worked really hard to get schedules to match over the summer. Turns out we were able to get together twice. Ironically it just so happened it was in a two week period. 

She came to visit us first. It's still 3 hours distance so we got to keep them over night. When they finally got here the kids were a little wound up so we took them on a walk. 

Up close: 

Love these kids! Such good people!

The next morning we went to the school park and played on the playground. Rebekah practiced climbing to the top. She actually got all the way there.

Then the kids played soccer. Rebekah got tired. Grayson kept going and going. 

We decided to go down town and Rebekah wanted to ride with the kids. That's a whole lot of fun in there!

We met up again down town.

The indoor playground we were going to play at was overly crowded so we went to the high rated ice cream parlor across the street. It was quite an experience. The ice cream was extremely rich and the ambiance was amazing. They put us by the big organ and even wound it up a few times so we could hear and see it in action. 

The group:

Rebekah of course got sprinkles and decided to show the whole store (and all my blog readers) how daddy taught her to eat said sprinkles.

We headed back to the indoor playground which was a little less crowded and the kids played for a few. However, the fun was ending and Miss Sarah and crew had to start the trip back. But good news: we were heading down to see her in a week! Road trip!
