While Momma's Away the Children Play!

This past week I took the girl's to Abilene to stay with my Momma. My Dad was out of town and it was going to be Mickey and my two heart beats. It was my first time to leave Landry. I missed them both very much and it was one of those drives back to SA where I didn't even know what to listen to on the radio. I felt so alone without my girls! We have our big Memorial Day Weekend every year and we thought it might be time for an overnight stay in Abilene. Luckily, I had a play by play of the weekend with many texts, phone calls, etc. I drove the girls in from San Antonio during the week and then back to get ready for our company on Friday night.

What a blast the girl's had with their Mickey and how I missed them like crazy! I believe she is now the preference though.

She took the girls to pick out some toys and play, play, play!!

 They had a tea party with the Disney Princesses while I was gone.

They actually had several tea parties.

This is probably my favorite picture. I knew immediately where it was taken. When I was a little girl, my Dad and I build a fort in the backyard. It was a huge fort to me with swings and stairs to climb up. Well, it has been a long time since I've played in the fort. But it has been kept up with for the girls. I almost feel like I must have built it for them because that is all Laney wanted to play in. Next time we go to Abilene she wants to sleep in it. Life is funny and little did I know when I was running around as a child myself that my children would be playing with my toys.

They played with chalk on the sidewalk.

And they played with chalk in the driveway when they woke up.

They went to Chuck E. Cheese. Yum. I have yet to take them so I'm glad they got the experience.

My preschool friend, Lindsay, went by to see the girl's when they were in Abilene. She hadn't seen Landry in a while and I love this picture and Landry's face.

Then my Momma took them to the ranch to see the Crowell's for a couple of days. She stayed with them to help out before she brought them back to San Antonio. They had a good time here too.

They swam in a baby pool.

 Landry experienced eating watermelon and loved it!

My Momma brought the girls back to us on Memorial Day. I was so happy to see them! I have the most wonderful mother ever and am so thankful for everything she does for my family! I couldn't do half of the things I do without her help and support and love.
