Long distance friends...

Ok, I KNOW I promised I would give details from this weekend, I'm just now getting to it, sorry!

We have some GREAT friends (our BFF's) that live in Bermuda. The last time we saw them I was pregnant with the Princess. They are here in town for the week, Kris & I have been counting down the days until they got here. They pulled in to town Friday afternoon & we got to go hang out & spend the day with them on Saturday.

We let the kids swim, play mini golf & just hang out & have fun. Here are a few (ok, a lot) of pics I took as I followed them around. LOL

Bubby in the hottub...


Their DD golfing...


C-Man "blowing" his ball, hoping to get it to go into the hole...


Bub's turn... (he did it the right way though)


All 4 kids (remember, Bonez wasn't there, he was still in Wyoming on the trek) taking a break...


The 3 golfers...


The Princess...


Now the the rest of the day... Kris had asked me to help her get everyone together & host a BBQ for them while they were here. Honestly, I wanted to be selfish & not do it, I didn't want to share the short amount of time we were going to have, but, I did it, like my hubby kept telling me... "It's NOT about you, it's about THEM" (yeah, whatever). So, like a good friend, I invited a bunch of people.

We were getting everything ready when we got a phone call saying Bonez would be at the church in 15 minutes so we needed to pick him up. Ok, I left & ran back into town, well... when I got to the church, found out that B was NOT there & was still at least an hour or so out. UGH! My entire family is waiting for me at the Inn, waiting for me to bring them sweatshirts since it was now freezing. I was STARVING too. The Inn is too far away to just run back up there, by the time I would have made it, it would have been time to be back at the church. I decided to wait it out. I ended up waiting 1.5 hours for him! Needless to say, by the time I got back to the BBQ that *I* was hosting, it was over. There were a few people left, but no food, & it was pitch black out. We stuck around a little longer, helped clean up & then headed back home. Yep, I missed the whole BBQ. I didn't even get to see Kris either when I went back. She was headed to the pool to check on the kids & we left by the time she came back. I did get to hang out with her sister (she actually cooked me a burger) & I got to say "hi & bye" to a couple of friends as they were leaving.

I heard it was a success & there was a lot of fun, friends & food. I just wish I could have been a part of it. I guess there's always next time... lol

Anyway, that was my weekend. They leave on Thursday & I am SO bummed! I miss them so much & forget how close & how much fun we have when we're together. Guess I should start saving my cans for a trip to Bermuda huh?!

Look at that hair. Your little girl is so cute. I love it when people take the time to actually do their daughters hair. She's adorable!!

Thanks Shirlene. Yeah, her hair is a HUGE deal & I get made fun of constantly because I'm so anal about it. LOL It's NEVER done the same way twice in the same week & I usually do her hair 2-3 times a day. Yeah, I'm obsessed! LOL
