Ford's Visit for the weekend

The weekend after Mother's Day, the Ford Family (Tony's sister and family) came to visit. They have 2 little girls, Summer and Violet. We had a great time with all of them. I took the 3 older kids to the park and library for a few hours, so Violet could take a nap. I hear she didn't sleep very long however. I read a book while the kids played....which is great with me. I love to read...as many of you know. Anywho...I don't have a lot of pictures of the older kids, because they are constantly running, but I have many of the ever entertaining Violet. Here is her "O" face...and her mother's! Classic!

Gracie and Violet played Elefun, or however it is spelled. Violet picked butterflies off the floor and put them in her net, while Gracie tried to catch them as they flew out. She tried to get Vi to try to catch them, but she wasn't crazy...they're 10 times easier to pick up off the floor, Hello!




Violet gave me a lesson on some body parts. These are her teeth...

This is her eye....

And this is her nose.... I was given a test afterward. lol

TJ was bored for a moment so I got out some blocks and played with him. We built towers and soon Gracie & Summer joined in. Here are the 3 little stinkers building corrals for horses and cows.

Gracie and her tower.

Where's Violet?

Peek-a-boo!

Violet impersonating a prisoner...LET ME OUT!

It was a great weekend full of laughs. Jennifer fell asleep on the trampoline (duh!) and got turned into a lobster. I got the enviable task of rubbing aloe on her. She was very appreciative. lol!

It was great seeing you guys!
