Parents for a week....

Steven & Jolisa (Jennifer's sister) went on an Alaskan cruise to celebrate their 10 year wedding anniversary. Josh & I had the privilege of playing "mom & dad". We had so much fun. They were gone Sunday to Sunday. So we got a great look at parenting. So on Tuesday we were asked how it was going...all we could say that it was soooo easy. We were just playing all day we just don't understand why people say parenting is soooo hard (see picture below). [wink wink]

(Pictures are backwards so start from the bottom & work your way up.) On Sunday when we turned the girls over to their parents the first thing they said was "when are you going on another vacation" we loved every second of it & feel blessed that Steven & Jolisa trusted us enough to step in for a week. Besides who wouldn't love eating tons & tons of deliciousness, playing freeze tag just before bed, reading stories & playing hide-n-go-seek? Right?!

The last night we had a sleep over at our house. The girls wanted to watch a movie with my Kiersten doll (American girl doll) so the girls sat and held her hand so she wouldn't be scared while eating popcorn. We had a blast. Thanks girls for the fun week. Can't wait for your parents to go on vacation again.

When the luau was just about to be over the cake walk game still had 20 cakes to give away. Each time the game was played they were giving away about 5 cakes. Well cakes weren't going fast enough so they said ok whoever is the best dancer will get a cake...Audree showed off her dancing skills & won a cake. She was so happy.
