One of my favorite days of the summer – when Hannah and her family pass through town on their way to the beach! Just like last year, they got into town early evening and we had dinner, let the kids play, and stayed up too late catching up!

The kids couldn’t wait for our friends to get there!

Sadly Robert was out of town for their visit this year. We all missed him – especially Ryan who had to play baseball with the kids all by himself! ha! It was fun to see our growing crew of kids together…

These two little girls were cute together…with matching haircuts!  🙂 Caroline was teaching Samantha some dance moves!

They packed up early in the morning to head on to the beach but I’m so glad they always make the effort to stop and visit! It’s the best!

Can’t wait for next summer’s visit!

Have a great weekend!

Over the long weekend we had some of our favorite friends visit from Atlanta! The kids couldn’t wait for Patrick, Liz, Henry and Evelyn to arrive!

They all played so well together. We showed them our little hood…

The boys had an epic Nerf gun war while Samantha learned how to do the proper princess twirl…

There was pizza…

popsicles…

and a fun night out for the grownups!

We always love when we get to hang with the Woods!

Cheers to a fun weekend!

On Friday of last week we had some very special visitors! Just like last year and the year before that, Hannah and her crew stopped through Birmingham on their way to the beach! Hooray! We always love seeing Hannah and it’s such a treat to see her kids too. I’m so happy she finally got to meet Samantha and I got to squeeze on cute Caroline!  🙂

Caroline could not get enough of Baby Mantha…

Baby Mantha wasn’t quite so sure about all the people in her house though! ha!

Poor baby was worn out from all the stimulation by the time everyone left! They just stopped through, had some lunch, played in the playroom and then hit the road again. It obviously wasn’t long enough but I’m so glad I got to hug Hannah’s neck and see Ryan and the kids.

These babies are just growing too fast…

I’ve known Hannah over 20 years now and I still feel like we should be in high school cruising around town and staying out of trouble (always). But instead, here we are, “middle aged” and driving mini-vans (ahem, only one of us and not me :)!) and trying to keep up with all these kids…

Man, we’re lucky. Old friends really are the best friends. Love you, Hannah!
