Friends Come to Visit

Our dear friends Amy and Cheryl and their kiddos made a trip to Hickory to meet Caroline and hang out.  It was great!  We are very thankful that they made the trip and we had a great time with them!!!
The kids played inside and we had lunch and they played outside riding bikes and playing in the water table that Cheryl and Amy so graciously put together.  Everyone took turns holding Caroline and I am glad they did, because later that afternoon she had a to go on a bilirubin blanket and stay on it with the exception of when she was having her diaper changed.  They stayed for dinner and even brought us dinner and desert - yummo!
Finishing up lunch.
Cheryl with Caroline
Sweet Evan with Caroline - he still loved on Kallie as well :)

Luke with Caroline
Amy with Caroline
Here they are still pretty dry
You might not be able to tell, but Maddie is soaked - all the kids ended up soaked, but it was a hot day and everyone had a change of clothes so they had a great time!
Trying to get a picture of all the kids minus Caroline before they headed back
Matt said they were too comfortable on the couch and moving around, so he took them outside and put them up on this wall.
Silly faces!
One more...
And then one of the ladies
Claire and Evan changed into their pjs before they left so Maddie got her gown on, too
The kids loved to go in and check on Caroline.
 We ate ice pops for a little snack

Playing a game with Matt while we got dinner ready - he did great keeping them all entertained!


Luke loved riding Lightning McQueen!

Go, Luke, go!

Telling Caroline goodbye one last time.
Thanks again for coming!  We all had a wonderful time!
