It's been way too long

Summers are tricky.
Most of our friends are busy with kids activites everynight, including the weekends, which means we don't get to see them as much- if at all.

Tonight Carter had a scrimmage in Coon Rapids.  We considered bringing the girls there to watch but it was a little sticky out today and I was worried if we all sat outside at the game tonight I would spend most of my night crabbing and yelling at them so we decided to invite Maddie over to swim.

Maddie goes to baseball as much as her parents do so it was nice to offer her a break for a night.

Stacey dropped her off at Chicken Wild (Buffalo Wild Wings) so we could eat.  From there we would bring Maddie home with us.

The girls spent the first 5-10 minutes just looking at each other and giggling.

Then Maddie entertained us with stories of the ways that the kids at A+ tourment the 'staff' (asking them who they kiss and if they make out with their girlfriends, etc).   Quick peek into the future for us as Brian turns to me and asks "Is this what we have to look forward to?!"  Oh, if he only knew :-)

We were serenated on our way home- the girls singing One Direction-"What Makes You Beautiful"

So happy they got to spend some time together today- it's never long enough.
