So this past weekend we hung out with my sister and her family mostly. I love spending time with her and our kids have grown up together so they are really close. On Friday I watched her girls because their was no school for teacher in service day. She ended up staying for dinner and we had a fire complete with s'mores! I LOVE me some s'mores :) It was so nice to have them over to hang out and us adults actually got to sit around the fire and have adult conversations, seriously!! Yay, that never happens. The kids are all getting older now and they can play (mostly) without us. Now, that's not to say an argument or two (five) happens from time to time but hey, I'll take it! haha....We decided that we needed a date night so we planned on our little cousin coming over the next night to watch all the kids while we went out to dinner! :) I called and made the arrangements for the next night and our cousins decided to come along too. Kristy and Paul are an absolute blast to be around and they sure made our night even better. We decided on eating at the new restaurant around here called Logan's and then we went and saw the movie Carrie. The dinner was so good! The movie, however, eh. It just didn't do it for me. Tommy and I were laughing at most of the parts but it was still a great time. :) My sister and her hubby didn't think it was too bad and neither did Kristy or Paul. They thought it could've been better but not horrible. Guess scary movies just aren't our thing. I am a pretty big scaredy cat so I thought I would be freaked out, nope! :) I'm good. I guess, really, I should be happy about that though! Ha!
On Sunday we decided to head out to Kings Island :) It was so pretty out and the weather was perfect. It was a little chilly at first but warmed right up before we knew it. Brie loves that she is tall enough for the Snoopy Surfer now and that was the first thing she got on with her Daddy. Noah is still too little so I took him over to ride the small cars and go on the car merry go round. Makayla and Shaun rode with Tommy and Brie. Poor little Avery was just barely under the line and wasn't able to ride with them. She is just 6 weeks 6 days older than Brie but since she is my sister's baby she seems so much younger! She weighs less than Noah!! That pretty little thing is just so tiny! :) I love giving my sister a hard time because she still likes to carry Avery around and baby her a bit but I get it. Noah gets babied waaayyy more than Brie and they are only a year and a half apart. Brie just seems so much older than him. She's my big girl and I expect more from her, which I totally know is dumb! haha...I don't know why it works out that way but it does! So anyway, Lindsay took Ave on over to the roller coaster, which Noah is once again too little for so we kind of split up while the Dads took the older siblings on their ride. Poor Noah always gets left out! haha...he doesn't notice yet though :) We headed over to the Halloween themed part of the park and the girls all rode a pony and Noah got to drive (ride) a little tractor maze thingy. The kids got to color a mask and go through a (not) haunted house and get some candy. It was a great day spent with great family!! :)
