PlayDate

For the last several weeks, Elizabeth has been begging us to have a "play date."  It's not like she doesn't get to hang out with her friends all the time, but there seems to be a big trend among her classmates to have playdates - one on one time at the house with another child.  She was persistent enough about it that Lee and I finally relented (between her school and extracurricular calendar and our weekend calendar, finding the time has been hard) and her buddy Chaney came over this past weekend.  Truth be told, I was a bit nervous because I didn't have anything planned, but my fears were short lived, as the three girls (Emily was not to be left out) ran around, played, went in the sprinkler, talked and ate for the better part of three hours.  Our first playdate was a success and I'm sure that there will be many more.

Playing in the sprinkler - what could be more fun??
