Fun Family Friday!

We had so much fun on Friday night! After we picked Jada up from school we went to the Super Target to talk with some friends from TN that were in town. Then we came home and fixed grilled cheese sandwiches and ate as a family. After we ate the boys went one direction and the girls went another.

The boys were going to have a daddy/son camp out in the living room. So Skyler went and gathered all the supplies he thought they were going to need...his suitcase that was packed with two flashlights, pj's, guitar (for songs around the campfire), play snake and bear (for them to wrestle with in the woods), and of course his cowboy hat. Skyler changed his name to Scott and Jeremy's name to Dave! What an imagination. No girls were allowed. They stayed all night in the woods...our living room! They had an air mattress and a tent around it so the bears wouldn't get them. My husband took the opportunity to talk about how it is fun to go on adventures and the most exciting adventure is to follow God!





The girls went to the other side of the house and had a mother/daughter sleep over. We got to shop in the boutique for jewelry and hair bow and nail polish. After we went shopping for awhile in the boutique (Jada's room), we did each others nails and just talked. That was probably my favorite part of the evening. After our nails were dry we played sequence together then we watched a movie in bed! Yes, there were typical sounds of a girl sleep over...laughing, talking, and a lot of giggles. At one moment I talked to Jada about all the make up and related it to her beauty and her beauty in Christ. We all had so much fun and love our fun family Friday nights!

what a fun idea... I bet the kiddo loved having the special attention... next time you should do daddy/daughter and mommy/son time-- maybe date night or something like that

(Oh and my hubby and I love to play sequence)

What a great night y'all had! It almost makes me wish we had a son too, so we could pair up like that sometime! (We'll just have to share Ava individually for now). And how awesome you both related the experiences to Christ.
