fun with the Johnsons ~ part 1

Our wonderful Johnsons are here for a visit and we could not be having a better time!

Tiff and the girls arrived on Sunday and the three little girls had so much fun playing together nonstop :)  Seriously, from the moment they arrived, Alli took them up to the playroom and the three of them were having the BEST time playing babies, swinging and playing with moon sand. 

On Monday, Alli (who slept in our room so the Johnson girls could sleep in her room) woke up bright and early wanting to find her friends :)  In the afternoon, we invited Mrs. L and the girls over to join in the fun and enjoy pizza with us.  That was a huge hit!  E, Taylor and Aubrey really hit it off :) 

As you can see, the seven little girls and Eli were having a blast . . .

Big J and G arrived home just in time to enjoy some of the yummy pizza. 

All of the kiddos were very happy to see the two daddys and the four adults had a fabulous time visiting!

We had fabulous weather on Tuesday and Wednesday so of course it was off to the beach house on Treasure Island . . .  

Sadly, Alli woke up sick on Tuesday so she didn't really enjoy the beach (sore throat and high fever).  Fortunately, it was not strep and lots of liquids and rest seemed to do the trick.

On Wednesday morning, the three girls went to Princess Camp at Alli's dance studio . . .  

How cute are these princesses???

They had a great time!

Once camp was over, it was back to the beach where Alli got to join in the fun.

We all had a great time swimming and playing on the beach . . .

I even dove into the water, which I HATE to do ~ it's COLD!

G learned the way to get me in the water, make it look like my baby boy is going to fall off the float!

Eli was totally safe but it was too much for Mommy to handle :)

Today was cooler so we stayed around the house.  Tiff and I went to the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale while the Daddys stayed home with the kiddos.  In the afternoon, we invaded the L's home for a fun playdate :)  After dinner, we learned that Eli is ready for his own iPhone . . .  

So far, it's been a great "staycation"!
