A Great Weekend!







This weekend we headed down to Greenville, SC to visit The Cain Family. Ryan has been best friends with the main Cain, Brian since childhood. They are a great family. I love hanging out with Jenn the mommy and only girl in the household of 4 boys (her husband and their 3 boys). Our kids adore their boys and all the boy toys they were surrounded with. Emma Grace loves cars, trucks, robots, blocks...Kiley loves babies and Sam their soon to be 2 year old stole her heart (and mine too). They also have Alex who is 5 and Jack who is 4, and one on the way! Maybe a girl to give Jenn a little pink in the house. On Saturday, Jenn, her mom, me and all the kids went to "Walking With Dinosaurs". I thought my girls would be scarred but they loved every minute of it. Well except the noise level, Emma could grab a hand full of popcorn, shove it in her mouth and immediately sick her fingers back in her ears without hesitation. The guys went to the Clemson football game and had a blast. Sunday we went to church with them and headed home, but on the way I couldn't resist stopping at the Gaffney Outlets. Of course when we arrived they were closed and would not open for another hour and 15 mins. Ryan said we could stay and wait it out. I know he just wanted to get home but he knew I really wanted to get in that Pottery Barn Outlet. I couldn't stop looking in the window. They had a merry-go-round and a playground so we let the kids play for a while and with 20 mins to go I couldn't take it anymore. I suggested we head home and I could make it a girls shopping weekend. Ryan was very fine with that. At least the girls got to play at the playground for a while, I got to "window shop" literally and hey next time I go I know exactly where to park to get to Pottery Barn. Oh yeah, and the hours of operation:) We arrived home in just enough time to unpack and go to Kiley's soccer game. We had a great weekend. Thanks Brian, Jenn and the boys. We had a BLAST!
