Memorial Day with Friends

We had a great holiday weekend with a lot of friends! They drove up (despite the gas prices) from Iowa and stayed with us for the weekend. Image! 5 kids under the age of 4. We faired pretty well -- despite Ethan's teething -- and had some great times together!

The adults got to play games together after the kiddies went to bed. This is one of our favorite pastimes together. We taught them a new game: Carcassonne. And played it several nights in a row. It takes over an hour to play so we don't even bother when the kids are awake. Good fun. (We kinda wore out Catan when we went on our cruise together a few years ago.)

Following are some pictures of the kids.
