162: Charlee and Tanner are in Eugene!

We are so excited that Charlee and Tanner are living in Eugene now. Brian emailed and said that they're normal child care lady had a baby and could the kids come hang out a couple of days this week. ABSOLUTELY!!! We were so excited! The last time we had seen the kids was when the girls were almost a year old - much too long ago. We've stayed in touch through Facebook with photos, notes and messages, etc, but we haven't actually connected in person.

Dagny and I picked Kinsley up from school and immediately came home. We had some lunch, tidied up a bit, and then Kinsley waited anxiously for them to get here. What fun kids they are. Brian had said at one point that he understood if four kids was too much of a handful ... it made it so much easier! Kinsley and Charlee played so well together and Tanner is the most mature eight-year-old I've ever met and a huge help with all three girls.

We brought all of their stuff inside and then immediately went to the sandy playground where we hung out for about an hour before it started to rain.

{photos soon}

After having a snack, the kids wanted to go out to the track and run and play in the sand some more. It had stopped raining for the most part and Kevin was home from school and could help me out ... so we hopped the fence. Tanner did some laps, easily running over a mile, and the girls played in the jump pits and on the runway until Kendra came to pick them up.

When they left Kinsley was so excited to get to see them again. And we are so excited that it will be so easy to see them again now that they're so close!
