We are SO good!

My parents were a total God-send in taking the girls for six days.  They went above and beyond to make sure that everything went smoothly for them and they were loved on so much that they didn't want to come back to us.

In fact, Riley told us the first morning we were back: "It's not as much fun here.  We got ice cream every night, a movie and oatmeal with milk poured on it so that it cooled down faster.  And I had a tv in my room.  We don't get to watch two movies.  I want to go back to Grandma and Grandpa's house."

Love that they were spoiled and that my parents did so much with them.  One of the things that my mom and dad came up with was a chart called "We are SO good!"  Anytime the girls did something sweet, kind, good and so on, they wrote it on the chart.  The girls loved it.

We are SO good!
