Sisters 2014.

Sisters doing my cute mom’s nails.

These two cute nursing babies got to join us.  They made me miss my babies!

Brian sent a few pictures while I was gone.  They happen to all be of Hattie—Elna must have been too busy having fun with her Grandma!

A picture of the stool Brian remodeled a bit by adding the side rails.  Hattie loves being on Elna’s yellow stool, but wasn’t quite ready for it without some support.

We took so few pictures, I’m bummed.  We had such a great and relaxing time—doing nails, working on a craft project, eating yummy food (including eating at Chevy’s mexican restaurant), lots of talking, and exchanging Sister’s gifts…which we didn’t get a picture of.  It was a nice break for me, thanks to Brian and his parents help!  I wasn’t going to go, but decided at the very last minute (like the day before I think) that I would go with Brian’s encouragement.  Brian was a good sport, but the girls weren’t easy on him—Elna didn’t go to bed the first night until 10:30 p.m., and accompanied that late bedtime with a tantrum of all tantrums.  I was happy to be able to come back to my sweet family!

I came back from my little break so refreshed and ready to soak my little girls up!  And they had missed me too and couldn’t stop hugging and kissing me.  It was all very sweet.

And we got out to play in the fresh air!  (Elna’s face!)
