Fun Friday!

Jake and I had a fun day with friends. Friday is the day I try to just have fun with Jake and friends! I always wanted to just stay home with my kids, but I got the amazing opportunity to keep my job and still be home with Jake. But lately work has been so busy that I've been working more than I planned, so I decided that on Fridays I will just check my e-mails in the morning and then close my inbox so I can't work any more until Monday (or maybe Sunday night). :)

We started the day with having a dear friend, Erin, over. We have been friends with Erin's in-laws for my whole life. She joined their family several years ago and we have loved her as another member of their family! She has an adorable 3 year old and another on the way. My sister, niece, nephew and Mom came over too. We had a yummy brunch with fruit, baked oatmeal, muffins, egg casserole, and fruit salsa with crunchy pitas. Yum! It was fun to catch up and watch the kids have a blast!

Me and my sweet niece, Afton. I love this girl. I love being a mommy, but being an aunt is pretty special, too!!

The boys during their "photo shoot." Jude thought we also needed "individual sessions." Can you tell he had professional pictures taken twice this week? :)

Jake saying "hi" to Aunt Kelley. He was probably trying to be all cute so she'd give him some food.

After a fun morning, we went to hang out with Jake's girl friend and Mommy's friend! The kids had a blast playing...especially with the bubbles. They were trying to catch them
