After we got back from Branson, we headed out to Cali! We kept the visit simple this time, because we had a special reason for going. Ann's 70th Birthday! She had a wonderful party with over 70 of our friends and family there. So we got to hang out with Judy, Amy Wainright, Lynn, Ruth, Britt, Elise, and lots of other wonderful people! It was a blast! We spent a lot of the week at Kona Kai, so Serenity got to work even more on her swimming skills. Donovan loves the water too, it's like a giant bath to him. =) We also had a game day at Juan and Veronica's, and a brunch with Jack and Patricia. Henry said, "Serenity is a fun girl, Aidan is a fun boy, and Donovan is a fun baby." =) Love him! He also thinks Serenity is one of his cousins, which we also love. =)
We're home now and both kids are feverish. Sigh. I spent much of today being a pillow for my sweet snuggly babies. Serenity woke up in the middle of the night, and since Donovan was already in my bed (Eric was downstairs expecting an early morning call) I just asked if she wanted to come sleep with us so I could get back to him. So I snuggled them both all night, and when we woke up, Serenity wanted to tell a story. "Once, Serenity and her Mama were snuggling in the morning light. And it was soooo cozy. And they love each other. " I love her so much =)
