This past weekend I hosted a 'girl's weekend' at my home in Little Rock. My sisters Melissa, Jessica, Amanda and Elizabeth were there as well as Kaylee and Melissa's daughter's. It was fun. It was neat to see how well Kaylee got along with my sisters. I was a little worried that they wouldn't mesh very well. Thankfully it all turned out great and by the end of it I felt like I was hosting a slumber party and not really a part of it! But that is alright. I was happy to give my sisters a little time away from their normal environments and have all of us in one place. That hasn't happened in so long.
Before the weekend Makenzie asked me what a 'girl's weekend' was. I told her it was just when some girls get together and have fun and play and watch movies. She looked up at me and said, 'I'm a girl too!'. So I was ready to have her there as well, but she ended up going to her mom's for the weekend. I told her she could come next time. She is so sweet. I love all of Jimmy's kids very much. I love getting to know them more and spending quality time with them. They are awesome.
And expensive! Kids in general are, I'm learning. This weekend I decided I was going to do pretty much whatever the girls' wanted to do, regardless of the cost (well I would have said no to some things, obviously). I must say, by the end of the weekend I was a little relieved that they were all going back home!!! I had a great time, but was glad when I could shut my wallet! Those girls' are all so fun. Kalyn and Keali were so sweet. Kalyn kept singing us songs and Keali kept getting hit in the head (accidentally) with the Wii. It sounds cruel but it really was very funny.

Maybe plan the next one when I can go? OR let me know and I can try to come out for it? It sounds like fun.
