We arrived just in time to drop the two with a sitter at Bobby and Alisa's house and head to an Executive Dinner at Silva's. We got to chat with Bobby and Alisa, Frank and Carrie who were in for Christmas from their boating trip, and all the other people that run Royal. It was a great meal with great friends.
The next day Justin went in to work for the morning while the kids and I joined Alisa and Emmy on a trip to the stables for a horse riding lesson for Emilie The weather was perfect and it was fun to watch Emilie ride her horse. I was jealous for sure. I wish my kids had the chance to ride...such an awesome activity.
After the lesson we headed into the office for the company Christmas lunch in which Randy was awarded Employee of the Year. He earned it for sure and we are proud of him. The kids got to see uncle Casey which was nice because it is rare.
Friday night we attended the First Annual Young Guns Ugly Christmas Sweater Party at Dina and Darren's house. Almost immediately after we arrived Justin was being affected by their cat. He took 4 Children's benedryl and within 30 minutes he was falling asleep on the couch while everyone else was having drinks and talking loudly!! It was almost comical really. This was it, our trip out with only 2 kids, a Christmas party with adults, and he's sleeping...he couldn't help it but it's still funny !!
So we headed home at about 10:00 or so and had a great night sleep!
Saturday Justin had to go back to the office for a little bit and then came home and we had a nice day hanging out with Bobby and Alisa and plans to attend a Christmas party that night for Emilie's stables.
Sunday we attended Emilie's horse show, in which she did a great job, and then headed to the Airport to head home.
The kids had a great weekend hanging out on Thursday and Friday with Prisilla and her kiddos. Then Friday night through Sunday with my parents. They played with the boys, had a sleepover, went to the movies with my parents, and just had a great time in our absence. That always makes leaving so much easier and a lot more fun.
It was a nice little weekend away and we always enjoy visiting them and they are so generous to us. We are hoping to visit again in the Spring when we can swim and play outside!!
Oh and the best part by far of the whole trip, was Brynn's crazy attraction to a young lady staying with Bobby and Alisa, Makayla. She was attached to this young lady at the hip and she was so gracious to play along and pay attention to Brynn all weekend. Brynn called her "her sister" most of the weekend. It was too precious. I snapped a pic of them before leaving for the Aiport. Such a sweet little lady..we hope to see her again.
