Family Time

So tonight we are travelling to the big Bay City to see my sister and her kids, and my mom. The boys are turning 6 tomorrow and we are going to their bday party. My sis decided to just do a Halloween theme so the kids could dress up...the boys want to be Power Rangers. Since they will fight over who gets to be what color...my sis just decided that they will both be the blue guy. Curt and I decided that we would dress up, I am certain that we will be the only adults there in costume, but we will go to any lengths to make those kids laugh. :) My older brother is driving in from Abilene as well, so it will be a fun-filled weekend...one that I will need a few days to recover from. We are going to surprise the kids by bringing Roxy and Gus. Is this really a good idea? 5 hours in a car with 2 Toy Fox Terriers is probably not the smartest decision...but their normal dog-sitter is out of town so we have no choice. Should add an interesting element to our weekend. I love going to visit Bay City, it is such a small town with the small town feel. Tomorrow is the anual Rice Festival, there will be a parade and all kinds of neat booths in the town square. Reminds me of my child hood when things were so laid back and people actually left their houses and interacted with each other. That is so rare here in the city. So...now I am watching the minutes tick by, ready to get out of here and get on the road. I will post some pictures on Monday of the weekend. :)

Good luck with that car ride- maybe put a lil' something special in the doggies' water to help the relax? I joke. I joke.

So there are 4 "kids" in your family and you are a twin- then your sister had twins? Two sets of twins in 2 generations?

Maybe I should not try to have a 3rd child- I might end up with 4. Your sister was smart about the same color thing- by boys were both Red Power Rangers last year (well for at least one event).

Have fun! Come on clock- can't you go faster than that?

I hear ya girl...the clock seems a little hung over today...moving very slooooowly. I am tempted to give Russ and Barbara (those are Curt's name for our dogs...he thinks it's funny to give them human names) and 1/4 of a children's Benadryl for the car ride. Sleepy sleepy!!! Yep, 4 of us...my older sis, my older bro, then me and Ryan. Then my sister has a daughter that's 10 and her boys...my older brother has a daughter that is 8, but she lives with my sister. Long story. My twin doesn't have kids, we are seeing who can hold out the longest because we are both scared that we are going to end up with twins. HA!

I see I see.

Well twins the first time around would be a handful but twins after 2 other kids- that's crazy. I can't imagine. Now I'm scared.

Have a nice sleep lil' doggies :)

Be safe!
