Girls Just Wanna Have Fun

A few weeks back (... yes, remember the car alarm post??!)... we had one of Karis' sweet little girl friends over for two nights. What fun for both girls - who each only have older brothers. Well, those girls just had a ball together for those couple of days. And of course, I had to get some pictures. :)

Their first course of action, heading into a "girls weekend" together, was the trampoline.


Then for some reason they got intrigued by the grass. I know, I don't quite understand it, but how sweet are these two, side by side, having 5-year old girl conversations while laying in the grass?


The swings got quite a bit of attention that weekend, too.


And then on Saturday my father-in-law came to take the boys out to a movie - something special just for them (... and to give me a bit of a break as I was a single parent that weekend). So the girls decided to wait outside for him - watching for him to arrive - oh, a mere half hour before he was scheduled to arrive. They didn't seem to mind. Sitting there on the corner, chatting up a storm.


So while the boys were off with Grandpa, I thought we girls should go do something fun and a little special, too. So we headed down to the park. Now of the 30+ shots of the girls on the slide (I know, I know - that's a little over the top), this one's my favorite:


Did these girls take advantage of their weekend together, or what?!! :)
