Moms work, Kids play

Today we had some wonderful friends come over . . . Jaime and I worked on MOPS stuff for at least four and half hours . . . didn't know that was possible . . . and still not done! Since we worked so long and Mr. S is out of town, we asked them to stay for dinner.

The boys played so well together the entire time. And luckily it was Little Pumpkin's nap time! The only time to get things done! *wink* Anyway, after dinner we heard the infamous ice cream truck. Praisin' Jesus he came AFTER dinner and not before like usual. *smile*

I guess the ice cream man inspired them, because afterwards, that's what they played! One would drive the tractor (a.k.a. ice cream truck) and the others, well I'm not sure exactly what their role was. Something about money being exchanged for weed, but I'm sure it was all legit. I saw the weeds they were picking from my front yard!

Little Pumpkin hanging with the boys. . . she holds her own! I think she loves the excitement other kids bring to the house. I think my laid back Little Lion is a little on the boring side for her at times! *wink*
How could you NOT love these faces!?!
During prayer time, Little Lion told us tonight his favorite part of the day was playing with the "R" boys!
