slumber party 2010!

my dear friend kristie (you remember, my friend who finally moved to la grange about one month before we moved away) is visiting from chicago. it is sort of funny, actually. her sister, marcy (on the right) just moved to our town from boston. we've been hanging out periodically since they arrived and have fallen in love with their family.

we've spent the weekend hanging out together... six adults and 8 kids between the ages of 7 and 3 months. we shared in-and-out burgers together on friday, caravaned into the city yesterday (yes, all 14 of us!), grilled out together last night,

and shared some sitters to get a grown-up night out tonight. it was a pretty fabulous weekend. i of course love spending time with both of these families, but it was also especially fun to see these two sisters (who i know independently) interact together.

and now, these three munchkins are having a slumber party. as i post this (at 11:15 pacific time), they are still whispering together in the dark.

oh, and they finally got that peace sign picture they were working on a few weeks ago. not as cool as the "floating hands in the hot tub" that they were originally going for, but it will have to do.
