Fun with Miller and Quinn

This weekend we had the privilege of watching Miller and Quinn.  The kids LOVE when they come over. Grandma helped them make cupcakes, and the kids gobbled them up in no time.Before bedtime, Natalie, Lucy, and Quinn had a cheer exhibition. At least they wore themselves out!On Sunday, we took and had a picnic at the park. It was a GLORIOUS gorgeous day! It was very cool and windy to start with, but warmed up nicely as the day went on. The park had so many awesome contraptions to play on!Quinn and Lucy swung for almost an hour. The big kids enjoyed the zip line!This big saucer swing was also a blast! Quinn was unsure if it at first, but once it got going, she loved it.When Lucy started falling asleep, we felt it was probabl best to head home, since she and Quinn both still take naps.After a good rest and dinner, we had an evening dance party. These kids can sure dance. I think Miller has the best moves of all of them, but he doesnt like to be photographed in action. 😉I was so excited to find some of Natalie’s old leotards for Quinn to wear. She always want to play dress up with Lucy when she comes over, but everything is always either too little or too big.We danced until we could dance no more.This morning, we went to the Arboretum. Monday is kid’s day, so they had all kinds of activities going on around the gardens, as well as all the pumpkins for Halloween.It was beautiful! The weather was perfect and the kids were so amazed at how many pumpkins they had.This year’s Pumpkin Village theme was the Wonderful Wizard of Oz.It came complete with Dorothy’s house from Kansas……the witches castle & yellow brick road……and even the color changing horses and carriage from Munchkin Land.Quinny really wanted to get her face painted. The line was SUPER long, so we decided to eat lunch while we waited along the way. It was SO worth the wait!Quinn and Miller were SO excited!Their smiles were priceless!We finished up with the pumpkins and headed over to the children’s garden.Of course we had to stop and play in the water along the way.It was a wonderful day!
