We had an amazing two days....
Filled with lots of love... catchin up.... laughs.... and memories made!
We were blessed to spend time with the Ercoli's and the Swartzentruber's.
Andre, Josh, and Garret have been buddies since grade school church camp and have managed to keep in touch throughout the years. It had been two years since we had our night away so it was due time...
Ella and Kenti lovin on each other in what they called the hot pool!
Jeremiah, Ella, and Gabe
Buddies in bed... you might think we arranged them like
this but they actually did it all on their own.
We were waiting patiently on our other buddies to arrive!
(Jack and Noah)
The next morning Gabe enjoyed some jump time!
After breakfast we enjoyed the indoor pool and hot tub while it rained outside!
Daddy gettin some love from Ella...
After swimming, while everyone was getting ready, the kids
were playing and this is how I found Ella's peoples
(yes peoples, this is what she calls them).
She was making sure they all had a snack of carmel popcorn!
Such a sweet little momma!
What do you know.. thank you Jesus!!....
After getting ready we noticed a break in the rain so we decided to go to a park
and do bubbles and sparklers! (provided by the ercoli's..thanks guys)
It was a perfect day for bubbles bc the wind was blowing just right that all
the kids had to do was hold out their bubble sticks and it made bubbles like crazy.
All six of the kiddos ready to go...
Kenti, Ella, Noah, Jeremiah, Gabe, Jack
While we were loading up and checking out... the kids had a BLAST!
these pics are a bit blurry (someone changed the setting on the camera) but
I thought they were too cute not to share!
These two were big buddies! Maybe a little too sweet on
each other..... Daddy was not to sure of it but Jack's mommy
and Ella's mommy thought it would be really fun to be in-laws together!
We are all for it!!! hee hee
At the park...
The whole crew... six adults and six kids!
What a crew!
The three who started all of the craziness....
The kiddos again....
The three boys with their oldest boys...
All of the mommas were pregnant with these three at the same time.
My brave little girl...
She watched Kendi dive off of Josh's shoulders all weekend
and she finally decided that she wanted to try...
She did it...
Kenti and Ella's brothers have yet to try it!!!
You go girls!!!!
After the park we headed to a bouncy house.
And oh my.. the kids were in heaven!
Gabe was dripping with sweat until we left...
All of the kids were so worn out we were hoping they could
all make it through supper!
They did make it, but required lots of entertainment!
These three sat in the kitchen and watched the chefs
go to town... They were loving it!
All in all it was a huge success...
The Lord truly blessed our time together.
