Saturday morning began with this picture of Emmi and Peyton. It was no surprise when Peyton had to sleep in the same room with Emmi. Those two are certainly attached at the hip and that friendship and love between those two cousins will continue and will be long remembered by both.
Then Jamie, who was the only one entrusted with a pair of scissors, trimmed Emmi’s bangs.
After the morning rituals of breakfast, brushing teeth, getting dressed, etc. Jamie and I fell upon Emmi’s good nature and asked if she would be willing to watch the three girls while Jamie and I ran a few errands. We knew we could go much faster without the three younger ones but we also were sensitive to the fact that Emmi is 16 and would enjoy hanging out with the adults. We headed to Talbots to return a dress that was sent to me my mistake, then to the mall to pick up by Gucci watch, then to a health store for an item that Jamie needed and then to Home Depot and Target. Our shopping was quick and successful. Jamie bought Emmi an ITunes card for watching the girls.
Neal and Tucker went golfing and apparently Neal beat Tucker soundly. So far Tucker has one win under his belt. Everyone returned home about lunch time and we had a bite to eat. Maren, Greg and the kids arrived just after lunch and all the kids went swimming. Maren left a bout 5:30 for home and work.
The rest of the evening was spent playing games. We play Shanghai until Lyndsy and James arrived and then we played 6 Handed Rook (which I might add – I won). Then we play Nickels to Nickels until 12:30. It was a fun day with lots of family coming and going.
This always makes me smile. Modern technology does not interfere even when playing games!
