Presidents Weekend Sleepover!

When we bought our home - almost 10 years ago, we never could have guessed that the couple that bought the home next to ours would become like family!  They were a sweet little couple, and we slowly got to know them.  Then we had Adam, and they had a little boy about 8 months later.  They they had a little girl and 11 months later we had Jackson.  Then they moved away to Edmonds.  We were all so sad!  But, since they've moved away, we still see them every couple of months, and they still feel like family.  Over the long Presidents day weekend, Adam and Jackson had a sleepoever at their house, and they had so much fun!  Jeff and Quyen are so amazing and they make my boys feel like they are at home.  The kids got to build their own forst to sleep in!  Here's Adam and Xander's fort...
 And Jackson and Maira's fort...
The new day, there was actually some sunshine!  They all went across the street for a basketball game.  Not sure what Adam is doing in this picture...
Jackson and Maira took turms riding bikes.  Quyen has generously saved some of Maira's things for Kate and she was thinking that these pink riding gloves could be passed on to her when Maira was done with them.  Little did she know that pink is Jackson's favorite color!!  She said it was pretty funny to watch Maira help Jackson get them on!

 
We love having such great friends!  The boys loved having a sleepover!  We did find out the Jackson is a little theif!  Apparently, before they went to bed, Quyen found that Jackson had swiped Jeff's wedding ring and put it in his bag.  Then, when I went to pick them up, I found several toys in his bag that didn't belong to him.  Then, after getting home and unpacking everything, I found a bag of chuck e cheese coins.  We have never been to chuch e cheese, so I know they don't belong to us!  I think all of the items that have mysteriously gone missing around the house must have been swiped by Jackson!
