A Slab Good-Bye

I'm realizing that I'm not really a fan of growing up :( Especially when growing up means that friends graduate and move away. Erin and J.J. finished school in December and have left for Texas for the summer and then they will be going to school in Iowa. Yeah for them, boo for me. Before they left we wanted Allisyn and Addie to have one more chance to play and to see each other so we met for lunch at a newer (I think that it's actually been there for a year or two now but it was my first time going) place called Slab Pizza. It was really good and I would highly recommend it. There were so many different choices and it was hard to narrow it down so Brea and I got two different kinds- The Chicken Club and Rosemary-Potato Bacon and shared (they were both super yummy!). 

It was fun to watch the girls play, they were both ready for naps by the end but they were certainly having fun chasing each other in circles around the table. 

Jamie even returned from her mission a couple days before so she joined us to get as much Erin and Allisyn time as possible.

The Chicken Club....I may or may not have recreated it a couple of times at work this past week :)

The Rosemary-Potato Bacon...I thought that it sounded a little strange at first but it was really good.

They were really good size pieces. Because the place was right by campus Darrell came down and joined us for lunch as well.

Addie and Allisyn were so funny, Addie would lead and Allisyn would follow (along with my water bottle, both Alli and Addie love it for some reason and seem to think that it is theirs).

It's hard to believe that we have been friends for 5 years now, my how the time has flown!

Cuteness!

For Erin's Birthday I wanted to give her something that she would like and that she might have given up since having Allisyn. I gave her a couple of ideas and asked if she had other ideas, she picked to have her hair done by Brea. My job (along with Darrell) was to distract babies and take pictures. Somehow most of my pictures ended up being of baby cuteness instead of Erin and her hair but there are a few mixed here and there :)

(Erin wrote about her hair along with before and after pictures here)

The first strand that we pulled out of the foils and boy did it look blonde!

For my Birthday I decided to have a dinner with my closest friends, it was so much fun to have Leah, Jamie, Erin, J.J., Allisyn, Brea, Darrell, and Addie all together. I made dinner and afterwards we played games with some entertainment provided by the babies :)

Jamie very serious during the games...had to make sure that the boys won :)

I promise I'm not as scary as I look :)

There was a buzzer and both girls thought that it should be kept in their hands...they were more than willing to crawl across the table to who was currently holding it.

Addie couldn't find her own pacifier so she stole her baby dolls.

Thanks guys for a fun night!
