The first weekend in November we started a new tradition (well, at least according to our family): spending a night at a hotel with friends. Our favorite family, the Moes, had an extra voucher for a free night stay at a local hotel. Being awesome friends, they invited us along. It.was.so.much.fun! The kiddos had a blast and all played well and the adults had fun too (usually its one group having fun while the other group just endures the night). The first thing we did once we reached our rooms: EPIC PILLOW FIGHT! Tony is notorious for his pillow fights. They are loud, long and dangerous. At least one of my kids typically ends up crying (often its all four) but they run right back for more punishment! The poor Moes kids had no idea what they were in for:
The kids got smart and ganged up on Tony ... didn't work. If you look in the back ground you can see a pair of legs behind Aliya's head. That is poor Jake getting tossed off. Luckily no one was hurt ... too bad!
This little Missy I love. Her face says it all: little imp stole Kai's shoes and put them on! I've decided she was supposed to be my kid. Somehow in heaven she and Kai got mixed up. Now while I am so grateful Kai is mine, I also feel somewhat bad Krysta got her: she's a bundle of curiosity, mischievousness, dirt, mess and trouble all wrapped up in a dainty/darling little girl body. She and Kai have been betrothed since birth. Luckily they love each other too!
The kids had so much fun playing, we actually wore them out!
The next morning, once it was a decent enough time, the pillow fight resumed (Drew wanted to start at 7 a.m). This time Tony broke out the "torture your brother by trapping him with his foot in his underwear trick". Poor Jake!
We also went swimming (yep, first part of November). Tony was being a sissy and wouldn't get in ... he eventually did with a little persuasion (i.e. push) from Casey. Thank you Moes family for such a fun weekend. I think we need to do this semi-annually!
