Debbie and I were asked to give Carrie and her husband a weekend break from their 3 children. Aunt Debbie and Uncle Jim became the parents of Eden(4), Haley(5) and Anna(7) from Saturday noon, until they reprieved us the next day after church. What a time! First step was getting the 2 car seats into the PT cruiser (they are really simple). Next, off to McDonalds. McDonalds is still a favorite (only now updated with chicken nuggets and chocolate milk). The prize was a moving bug from the 'Bee' movie.
Spinning was Eden and Haley's constant request. I've included video proof that even an FOM can spin tiny people (although I got dizzy quickly). Their dog, Jax, also wanted a piece of the action.
We were so thankful when bedtime came. We enjoyed the rule of 7:30 / 8:00 and 8:30 bedtimes. We were exhausted! Morning comes quickly. By 6:30, they were up again and the dog needed 'out'. Debbie made a great breakfast of french toast. They also munched cereal as they each got ready for church. I had to get a picture of them all together. Here's Deb and the girls before church.
Thank you for thinking of us Carrie and John.
Love to the kids,
Uncle Jim and Aunt Debbie.

Well, our nice relaxing night at the Elms did wonders for us. Thanks, Jim and Debbie for your willingness to help us out.
Ya, I get the spinning thing too, all the time.
The girls were great! It was an experience of going back in time.. without some of the energy I wish I still had!
