Family Fun Friday...

We had such a fun day yesterday... Everyone's getting ready for Amy's wedding tomorrow - my second cousin's wedding. It's an early one at 11 am today. I can't imagine getting married at this hour of the morning..but ok! Anyways, Grandma Mary gets her hair done here on the island so she was planning to stop by afterwards. Hannah was so happy about her Grandmother coming over...she was up early at 6:45 am and by 9 am she couldn't stand it anymore and called Grandma's cell phone. Grandma didn't answer but Hannah was really upset and complaining to me about how "mean Grandma didn't answer her phone!" so my mom called her back immediately as soon as she could get outta the hair salon. It was so funny, Hannah was so happy to talk to her on the phone, "Grandma, when are you going to be here? I've been SOooo missing you!"... and oh boy the greeting she received when she got here! All the years the boys and Kristin were growing up they never really had that relationship with their grandma - not to say that they aren't close now because they are. But Hannah absolutely adores her Grandma and I would venture to say that my mother has never received the greeting from anyone that she receives from her granddaughter Hannah. We convinced Grandma to get in the pool with us and then had lunch, Hannah got a nap and Grandma left to go finish her "wedding grooming preparations!" When Hannah woke up she asked if we could go to the park which sounded good to me (if we could stand the heat). We met Keiley at the park and when the fun turned to thunder storms Hannah invited Keily back to our house. They ended up playing and romping until 8 pm. Kristin has had Emily here all week while her family's been on vacation which has been nice. Thursday was Kristin's last day at Harris's so now it's up all night, sleep all day... She and Emily went to the grocery store and ran errands to the bank and post office if I'd agree to make "breakfast for dinner" which I did. Hannah and Keily weren't that interested in eggs and bacon for dinner so on the way taking Keily home, we did a Mcd's run for some of their favorite foods... yes of course, "chicken nuggets and french fries". Off to get ready for the wedding ... Have a great weekend!
