DeWeils Come to Visit

Recently we had a very special treat. David, Scott's brother who lives in Columbia, Kelly (his awesome wife), and Caroline (adorable daughter) came for a visit. We have  not made enough of these day trips, but we will definitely be making more. The girls had a BLAST getting to play with their cousin Caroline. Kelly and I had a great time laughing & playing with the girls, as well as great conversation. Scott and David had a ton of fun, doing brother stuff--including a dance off in Just Dance 3. We LOVED having them over and can't wait for many more of these in the future.

Tonight at dinner, we asked the girls to share their top 3 "roses" of Christmas break. One of Sienna's was Caroline coming to her house. So sweet! Hopeful we can make more roses with Caroline, as well as cousin Ella in Florida!

Here is a recap of the day....

The girls enjoyed a delicious tea party, complete with yummy chocolate chip pound cake made by the amazing Chef Kelly & hot chocolate/Sierra Mist/milk as drink options. What more could you ask for?

All three ladies enjoying their desserts and "tea". So sweet.

The weather was kind of iffy, but we made sure to enjoy playing outside as much as possible. When it started to sprinkle, we brought the fun onto the front porch. Here is Caroline having fun with sidewalk chalk & paint. (By the way, look at those cutie patootie boots!!! Love them!)

So sweet!!!

Sienna braved the weather and wanted to show off her riding skillz! :) She is a ball of energy & fun for sure!

When the rain started coming down harder, we took hide-and-seek inside. Here was a favorite hiding place. Sienna was hiding in the linen closet while Mycah & Caroline went on the hunt. Surprise!

Such a fun part of this day was watching brothers Scott and David play Just Dance 3. Song choice--Jump On It. Hilarious? Why, of course! We had so much fun laughing WITH them, not at them as evidenced by Scott's face in this picture. Fun times for all were had for sure!

I snuck this sweet picture while Caroline was watching one of Sienna's many "shows"/performances. Sienna loves to perform and we love to be the audience. Caroline wasn't quite sure what to make of Sienna's crazy costumes and crazy antics, but I think she enjoyed it. (At least I hope she wasn't scared too badly from our silly Sienna)

We tried to get a group shot here but Caroline wasn't ready to be in front of the camera. Here is Mycah and Sienna, in one of her many costumes/make up.

Snuck this shot while Caroline had Sienna's pom-pom and was pretending to cheer. Precious!
2 - 4 - 6 - 8, Who do we think is really great? Caroline, Kelly, & David! We can't wait to visit together again very soon! Love love love our family! :)
