A Fun Playdate

We got out today for a super fun playdate with some of our really good friends. God has really blessed me over the past year with 2 totally awesome friends - Jessica and Candace. The three of us have come together (and don't ask me how - we are as different as can be but also so much alike) and forged a very special friendship. These gals have been there for me over the last year and it has been wonderful. We have had so much fun together and also have been an encouragement to each other. We used to get together every week but Candace recently moved and with Kate being born we haven't seen each other as much as we would like. So today we had a very special playdate planned at Jessica's house.

It was great to catch up with the girls while the kiddos played. They both have little girls who are 18 months old (Kylie and Genevieve). It is so much fun to watch Ben interact with the 2 girls. He actually has a really good time with them. He was having a tea party with them both (he is a ladies man!) Kate hung out and watched it all. It was a fun morning! Now Ben is napping (3 days in a row!!!!) and yes Kate slept through the night again (9:30-4!!). Life is good. Thanks girls for a fun morning!

Miss Kate ready to go to her first playdate. She is wearing a day gown my grandmother made for me when I was a baby. It has been to cold for her to wear it much but today it is 70 degrees so she could wear it. But you know what the warm weather means - tornados later tonight!
