time with the wragges...

This past week we were spoiled in having the Wragge's join us for Thanksgiving! It was so much fun, too much in fact I regret not getting my camera out more. I guess I was too busy laughing at the three stooges in action. These three are a hoot, you best be ready! The girls love to play dress up... Drew does too but thankfully {courtesy of my mom - thanks mom you rock!} a new Woody costume was in the mix so he didn't have to don last year's costume!

We made the mistake of not getting every.itty.bitty.ounce of energy out of them on Thursday {we ALL paid the price} so we were bound and determined to get their wiggles out Friday. Thankfully, the weather cooperated and was perfect for a picnic at the park!

I love this shot of Avery...

the warmth of her smile that is rarely captured in a still, but in person you just get goose bumps!

Grandma did a great job of helping the kiddos swing higher, and higher, and higher...

Just can't get enough of those blue eyes on this sweet 'lil boy!

Of course, we wanted to be included on the blog so we all posed... CHEESE!

Our mission to wear the monkeys out was a success!!!

But what ever should we do for tomorrow... Science Museum? SCORE!!!

The St. Louis Science Museum was really impressive!

They had a special hamster wheel...

{I asked if they take orders and sadly they don't}

The all time favorite... DISCOVERY ROOM!

The kids got to roam free in this room filled with all sorts of different activities from racing cars to dominos to magnets to computers to water table to animal exploration...

Avery loved the magnets...

She would make me "ice cream cones" and then hand me a "dumbell" to burn those extra calories!

Addison playing "Lion King" with the safari animals...

Drew, Keli & Deb all playing at the water table!

This spot was a bit hit!!!

So that little day trip kept us busy on Saturday but then it was time to put our game faces on for Sunday!

It was a tough game but we were all there to support the guys!

As we were waiting for Tony after the game these two decided to entertain themselves by dancing... pretty funny!

This picture looks like Addie is dipping Avery... perhaps watching Dancing with the Stars is sinking in???

Waiting with Grandpa for Daddy to come out of the locker room...

Of course it was a race once Daddy was spotted... Avery won!

I think it had something to do with her new Rams Cheerleader outfit!

All and all we had a wonderful time with family and look forward to doing it again soon!

XOXO
