Visit to the Porter's

Greyson, the girls and I visited the Porter's on Sunday. It started snowing about 10 miles before Condon which was fun to see. Not as much fun driving home in it but at least it was Greyson's turn to drive.

The Porter's house is beautiful. I was very envious. Big livingroom, a grand staircase, granite countertop, lots of rooms for living, playing, sleeping. It also had a clasic front porch for sitting around sipping lemonade in the summertime and waving as the neighbors walk by. I hope it works out for them next year so that they can purchase it. I think they could be happy there for a long, long time. I know I would be.

We introduced them to Munchin the game. I think it is one of the few games you can play with kids and adults and everyone enjoys it. I don't think they even missed us not bringing the xbox 360. The babies took one good nap while we were there but did get a bit fussy right before we left, but it was a long day for them. It was great to see the Porter's and I am glad they are within a reasonable visiting distance now.

I am going to go home and do a bit of cleaning for the holiday weekend. We have been trying to keep up on the laundry etc. but it is a never ending process. We were up putting clothes away in our bedroom last night when Greyson looks over at the final two laundry baskets on the floor and say "I think that is good for the night let's put those away tomorrow." And I respond "but those are all dirty." And Greyson says in disbelief "but I have been doing a load a day!". Pre-babies, one load a day would do it. Apparently that is no longer the case.

Hope everyone has a great holiday. I will try to post some pictures of the event.
