GIRLS WEEK 08'!!!


We just finished up Girls reunion week 2008! It was so much fun once again. This year the girls came to see me! Everyone brought their kids and I had mine with me. I was so excited for Lorelei and Paxton to get to play with Ethan, Caroline, Sadie and even baby Noah! It was such a neat experience to see all my gal pals with their little ones. I am so proud of each of them because they are all such great mommies! I am SO impressed with Christie's ability to love on each of our kiddos this week too! I can tell she must be an awesome kindergarten teacher. I know that my kids wanted to go home with her after the week was over- Lorelei keeps asking for you Christie!
We started the week with a cookout and just hanging out and catching up. The next day we took all the kids and all our gear down to the pool. It was cool just hanging out with each other and playing with each others kids. That night we went to Stone Mountain. We rode the train and watched the laser show. I wish I had more pics, (I am sure Emily will post enough for me!) of everyone there. The kids were so cute dancing to the music and Paxton and Ethan played with their light up swords. It was a super late night- I think everyone was worn out by the time we got home. But, we had enough energy to hit the Aquarium the next day! Another adventure in itself. Once again, my fatigue, taking Lorelei to the potty, and just plain laziness took over and thus their are no pictures (I also think my camera was buried under all the stuff in the double stroller). We were quite a sight- 5 adults, 6 children, a double stroller and two umbrella strollers- and poor Paxton who had to walk since he was the oldest and biggest (NOT happy about the walking). We ended the week with a little trip to Bahama Breeze and an evening of talking and reminiscing. We missed Lynsay, Nichele and Katrina- hope you guys can join us next year!!
I am so glad that each and every one of you girls got to come and visit me and my family. I am so thankful for the role you all have played in my life and I pray that we all can continue to stay in touch and bless each others lives!! (Oh and a belated Happy Birthday to Emily- still feeling bad that I forgot!!)
The kids at the pool- Lorelei, Paxton and Ethan- I couldn't catch Caroline in the pic.

Sadie and Caroline.
Ok, Paxton had a real thing for little Miss Caroline. He wanted to love on her all week! It was actually really sweet!
Josh and Lorelei. Josh hung out with us girls the night we went to laser show. He was such a Life Saver this week!!

Me and sweet little Noah. It was so great to finally meet little Noah. He is Ashley's first baby and I love him to pieces! He is so precious!!

Ok, Yeah for Me! I did actually take ONE picture at the Aquarium. This is Ethan and Paxton with Deepo- the Aquarium's mascot- looks like Nemo if you ask me!

Hi Kim! I just read Ashley's blog about your reunion and I found your blog from that. Looks like you guys had a blast and I told Ashley that all of you are just as beautiful as ever! Kelly, Sheridan, and Julie and I are still trying to get a reunion together. Hopefully we can do that soon! Shana Weatherbee Wolfe
