A long, fun day!

We had such a fun day today!! David had a snow day today so after breakfast I bundled up the kids and we headed off to my friend Amy's house in Fremont. David was sooooo excited to play with Rachel, Amy's daughter who is about his age. They play so well together and they were out in the snow for hours! Lauren and Elliot (Amy's son who is just a bit older than Lauren) did not fare quite as well as David and Rachel. They are at the age where neither wants the other to play with any toys because they want all the toys for themselves! (We're working on the sharing!) I still think they got along pretty well, for their ages. We had some really yummy pizza for lunch and then the big kids went back out in the snow for some more cold fun. The time flew by so fast with the kids playing and Amy and me chatting that before I knew it, it was almost time for dinner!

Both kids were asleep right after we got out of Amy's driveway and slept all the way home (about 40 minutes)! Lauren didn't even make it through dinner once we got here. While Chris was grilling hot dogs to make chili dogs (Mmmmmm!) Lauren had a bit of cheese, 1/2 of a microwaved hot dog, and then started asking to get down and pointing at her bed! She went right to sleep. Even David didn't protest about bedtime as much as usual. I think I'll try to take them outside to run around tomorrow . . . :oD I'm going to watch a movie with Chris now and eat some brownie sundaes!!! We miss you all and hope you are all doing well!!

Love,
Chris, Megan, David & Lauren
