Pack up

Leave at 4am so that we can make it home

for child #3's tennis match.

Call from home with 30 minutes to go...match cancelled.

Sweet reunion with kiddos.

You didn't think I left them this whole time empty-handed did you?

Nah, I decorated up an ice cream container filled with small treats

that they could pick from while we were gone

(chewies, hot wheels, Toy Story Cups, Cards}

So glad to be home.  Would do it again!

So sweet to have these sweet boys in my arms again.

DH and his buds did good picking out our condo

Was glad to see it

and stay in it...makes all the work he does for it worth it!

Cannot wait for the boys to see it, again and again.
