Our Favorite Get Away

I am sure it is no surprise to anyone who reads this little scrapbook of mine that my favorite place to take the kiddos for an afternoon break is David and Kayla’s place.

Ahhh. Yes!

Kayla always has fun things planned for her siblings when we show up!

Yesterday afternoon we baked cookies that will be some love that will be delivered to a special someone.

The littles have a drawer at Kayla’s that they talk about the whole six minutes it takes us to drive down off the ridge into the valley where Kayla lives.

It has cards, coloring books, crayons and such – but these things are way better than the million of them we have at home, well, simply because they are Kayla’s!

We also went down the street a couple of blocks and played at the local library for awhile.

It is tiny, empty, and quiet – which is perfect for the littles. They love it.

They rotate the toys there, so there is always something new to play with!

A puppet show, anyone?!

Imagine that. I found Addie Mae in the cookbook section!

We headed back to Kayla’s and made a huge pot of soup (surprise, surprise!) and a salad for dinner. We managed to save enough for the guys!

By the time we headed back up the hill it was time for quick baths and bed!

The perfect end to a great day!!
