That Was So Fun!

That was Ruby's comment one night as we left the drive through festival of lights near KC and Emily's home.

We just returned from a fun time visiting Ruby, Bennett, Alex, Emily and KC and had a great time with everyone. Every morning as soon as we were up Ruby would ask in her sweet little voice, "go jump on the bed?"  They all loved jumping on the guest bed, a treat that they don't get to do all the time.  We played Pet Store, Super man, dance and freeze, and wrap up the babies. I loved their chatter, laughs and giggles, and when they reach up and say 'hugs?', meaning they wanted to be picked up.
Here's a sample of the fun times we had:

You can't see much in this video, but there are three sweet voices that burst into song as we were preparing to go for a drive.

This one features Ruby and her random song and comments after our evening visit to the Festival of Lights.
