First Ever Play Date

Last Friday Luke had his very first ever play date where a friend from school came over to our house that afternoon. We met his mom at noon at school and then they followed us to our house where his friends mom dropped him off. These two boys had so much fun. I was a bit nervous about the whole thing but it turned out really great. The weather was beautiful outside on Friday so they took the Nerf guns out side and ran around the yard having a blast shooting each other with little Nerf darts.

Here are some pictures from Friday's play date.
These two chased each other around the old shed out back. The hid behind the tree, shed and anything else so they could sneak attack each other. It was fun to watch them.



Here they are together. Poor D, Luke wouldn't give him the smaller Nerf gun so he had to carry around this thing that was as big as him. He was a good sport about it.

The boys were constantly having to stop and put the darts back in. It was reloading time. The good thing they both had the same number of darts and it was always reload time at the same time for both of them.
I love this picture of Luke. I don't get to many picture of him with such a great natural smile anymore. (His nervous twitches just take away those great smiles, another story for another time). It just goes to show how relaxed and how much fun he was having.
Finally here we are again and we have the dog way back along the edge of the yard going potty in my photo. Thanks Lexis!!!

It was such a wonderful day!!!

Looks like they had a great time. I love the pictures. I look forward to when KK is old enough to make her own friends like this... but I'm also nervous about the days when she goes out to playdates and I'm not THERE! They just grow up too quick, don't they?

Looks like that had a lot of fun! And nice that it gave YOU a little break from "play-mate duty", eh?
