A Surprise Visit from Nay Nay, Charlotte, and Auntie Ashy!

Pearce had been wanting Nay Nay and Charlotte to come to our house for a visit.  I finally got that scheduled with Ashley, but we didn't tell Pearce.  I told him the bug guy was coming and that could open the door when the door bell rang....when Pearce opened the door he was totally shocked!  They all hugged and kissed and then we got our suits on and headed for Rockin' River!  We were busy non stop doing all kinds of fun things together!  Thank goodness we had nice weather for the water park since that was our one big outing.  The kids loved it!  We went back to my house and the giggling never stopped :)  They all slept on a blow up mattress in Pearce's room, woke up early, and giggling started all over again!  On Wednesday, it was a rainy day, so we went to a new indoor Nerf gun arena.  Pearce has been dying to go, so this was a perfect thing to do with his cousins.  Pearce and Nay Nay LOVED this place!  They split players up with two different colored vests and the kids were supposed to shoot the opposite team.  If someone got shot, they had to go to a side room and "regenerate" and then come back out, guns a blazin'!  Ashley and I watched through the window outside the arena and we laughed so hard at how seriously Pearce and Nay Nay were taking it.  Sweet little Charlotte, on the other hand, spent a lot of the time hiding behind the barriers :)  We asked her if she ever shot anyone and she said yes....then smiled and said "actually, no."  After the nerf gun place, we went to eat a late lunch at Hat Creek and thankfully the rain had stopped, so the kids got to play for a while.  THEN, we took them to Catch Air, an indoor play place.  Nathan was so sweet and said this was the best day ever because they got to go to two fun play places in one day :)   Pearce was just in Heaven to have Nay Nay and Charlotte at our house!  It was craziness...but the best kind of craziness!  Of course, I loved having my sissy here, too!  We stayed up late and caught up on all of our trash TV after the kids went night night.  I just love having us all together!  Thank you Nay Nay and Charlotte and Auntie Ashy for surprising Pearce...we LOVE you!!!
