Dinner at Cadin's house

Saturday night we went to Aunt Lisa, Uncle Danny, and Cadin's house for dinner. It was such an enjoyable evening we can't wait to do it again!

Taylor and Cadin were so amazingly wonderful; they played with each other all night, no fusses, copied what the other did, didn't get into any arguments over not sharing (except for right before bed), and were just so darn cute! Some of the fun moments included:
1. Cadin and Taylor playing at the easel together, on the oppostie side from where we were so all we could see were their cute four legs together.
2. Cadin and Taylor putting craft pom-poms onto the train table and "choo-choo"ing the trains through the ones they put on the bridge.
3. Cadin eating two bowls of macaroni-and-cheese!
4. Taylor squeezing glue so perfectly onto ALL of the Valentine hearts that Aunt Lisa had probably for Cadin to make art projects with. She then put pieces of tissue paper, gem sitckers that Cadin opened, and doilies onto the hearts. That art at school really pays off!
5. Taylor going potty on the "little potty" in the bathroom and Cadin going in to see her then sitting right in front of her with his legs stretched out around her potty, talking to her! Soooo cute!
6. Reading books together on Baby Julia's play mat.

The four of us adults were able to play Skip Bo, only interrupted by wanting to take pictures or videos of our adorable kids together! Our night flew by and we actually stayed until past midnight! Not only did we play Skip Bo (and were completely dominated by Lisa and Danny) but we also played a round of Mexican Train. Many bottles of wine later, we headed home happy that we had just had such a wonderful night with such awesome friends. We are so lucky!
