A Visit From Uncle Dallan!

I didn't write last week because we were taking it easy after all that Halloween madness.  (More like, I forgot to write...)  Last week and this week we did our same old, same old- library, parks, walks, coloring, games, puzzles... anyway.  You know my kids and their short attention spans.  We did a lot.

On Friday evening Dallan and his girlfriend Jessica showed up.  Jessica was down for the weekend to visit her friend and Dallan decided to tag along.  He is staying with us while he is here, which makes the kids SUPER excited.  Like, as soon as he walked in the door it was a madhouse.  The kids would not leave him alone and there was much excitement.  Jessica was impressed that Kylie remembered her name, since we met her a few weeks back.

After a while Jessica left and the rest of us packed up and went outside to run around on some rocks and try and drain the kids energy.  They literally ran everywhere and it was tough to keep up with them!

Saturday Jessica came over and we made waffles and visited.  Then Brandon came to visit with the kids and everyone went to a park.  I stayed behind to get some work done!  After Brandon dropped the kids back off we had a fun afternoon/evening playing games and going out for frozen yogurt.  Hayden kept asking where Dallan was, but he and Jessica were off doing their own thing for the rest of the day so Hayden was pretty bummed.

Today was the kinda the same:  hang out with Dallan in the morning (after they rudely wake him up at the crack of dawn), until he goes to hang out with Jessica and her friend.  Then the kids spend the rest of the day asking "Where is Dallan?"  Haha poor kids!  They don't realize that Dallan has other plans beyond being used as a jungle gym by them.  Dallan will be with us one more night and is heading out tomorrow.  We have loved having a guest and the kids especially enjoyed the distraction!
