We arrived in Billings a few days ago. Jess and Nate worked the first day, so the kids and I did some shopping and passed the time with painting fun and a run through the sprinkler. Claire and Mya wanted nothing to do with the sprinkler, but Ava and Olivia were great sports. They enjoyed cooling off from the intense heat. Claire and Mya filled frisbees full of landscaping rocks. Hmmm....
So, we are still roughing it in our amazingly, wonderfully fabulous, new house. That means, air mattresses in our living room. Fun. The girls love it, Chris and I not so much ;) Anyway, the close proximity means Chris and I get to eavesdrop on some very tender moments. They seriously bring tears to my eyes. How did we get so lucky to have them as our children??? Here's one example. Claire--"Mya, can we snuggle?" Mya--"sure." Claire--"don't let go." Mya--"No, I'll just wait until you are sleeping." Claire--"No, you wait until the middle of the night." Mya--"Okay, I'll wait until the middle of the night." Then we hear lips smacking. So cute. I won't share the meltdown that occured moments before this sweetness ;) Life isn't always rosey, now is it? Ha! In other news..we get internet today and our furniture/things tomorrow! That means 1 more night of "roughing it!" Yippee!
