our first official sleepover

The boys have certainly slept other places than our home. They have even stayed there without us. Mostly, they have spent time with grammy and grandad while Rayden and I were on youth trips. Recently, though, they stayed with friends of ours while we drove to Oklahoma for Gran's funeral. This was their first taste of what a sleepover is. And let me tell you....they were bit by the sleepover bug. They ask all the time if their buddy Luke can spend the night.

Well, the opportunity presented itself for Luke to stay with us while his little brother was having surgery on his ears and nose. We had a blast. We made chocolate pudding together, watched a movie, and then crawled in bed....only to hear them giggling for about the next hour or so. I'm not sure we are ready to try this with all our friends yet, but Luke is certainly welcome anytime.
