Thursday, June 5th

My friends Sam and Motoko were invited to a going away party for a friend of theirs. They were worrying about getting a babysitter for their kids. I offered to help out.

The kids get along great and play really well together. It was a beautiful day/evening and the kids spent most of it playing in the backyard. (Lilli, Tipton, Aaron, Eren, Karin, Selena) Piggy-back rides seemed to be the 'big' thing. Here Aaron is giving Eren a piggy-back ride.

Queueing up. Selena gives Tipton a ride.

After they'd tired of piggy-back rides they moved on to other things. The big girls played with the balls & scoops. Here's an action photo of Karin.



Tipton and Aaron played with the balls and nets. Here's an action photo of Aaron.


Good catch, Tipton!

Eventually the kids moved into the playroom. Selena and Karin had the younger kids sitting down at the "table" while they prepared and served them "dinner."

It was a late night, but there was no school the next day, and the kids were having a great time. My kiddos were so tired, but didn't want to stop having fun.

Tipton had such a great time. He keeps asking me if we can have everyone over again.
