A night with my sweethearts.

Like most grandkids, mine love coming to our home. They love sleeping over with their cousins and building forts etc.
On Friday night we tended Colby and Addie while Troy and Kori celebrated their anniversary. They wanted to go to Park City so we had the kids sleep over. It was Addie's first time sleeping at our home so we weren't quite sure how she'd handle it. But she did awesome. I got home from work and the first thing I did was get on the floor and wrestle with Colby. He loves that so much. We rough housed for 45 min. non stop. We had so much fun and they were so good. Addie did great too. We got up the next morning and got ready to drive to Tooele to see Brayden play his flag football game. Brayden is the quarterback and really has an arm to throw the ball so far. He plays on the Saints team. Kori and Troy met us out there then drove their kids home.
We picked up Brayden, Daxton and Presley to have a sleep over on Saturday night. We had Makinley, Gentry and Easton all sleeping over. Call me crazy I know!
We ordered pizza then watched a cute movie called Rio. Then the kids made a hut out of our mattresses that they sleep on. It was so fun to see their creativity. They did that for a couple of hours while I watched to see what they'd come up with.
I adore my grandkids so much. Each one has their own little personality and it's fun to watch them grow up and learn.
Rog and I were tired when it was all over but it was worth it. I love hearing the laughter all over our house. There were a few bumps and bruises during the night. Easton fell off a stool in the kitchen and hit his head, his finger got stuck in the toy guitar, he hit heads with Gentry. But all in all I know they had a great time because Makinley was already asking when could they do it again.
Yesterday when we were at church, we had Brayden and Dax and Presley with us. We were getting a new bishop so we wanted to be there. Daxton, out of the blue says "Gramma, how come you still look like a mom?" I said " because I am a mom Dax." Then he said "well you still look like you did when you were a mom to my mom." I smiled and gave him a big hug and kiss. I couldn't believe he said that. He's such a sweetheart.
I love all my little sweetheart so much. I can't wait for Hadley to be old enough to sleep over with all her cousins. Then we'll have 9 little ones here. Wow!!
