Mark, Sarah + Izzy flew in to our brand new KCI airport on Friday just in time to celebrate St. Paddy's Day and a long 4 Day Weekend with us! We were SO excited to have them visit!!

My cousin Emily stopped by for Happy Hour and made
some fabulous Irish Whiskey Drinks!
The girls played lots of Ping Pong!
It was a chilly weekend outside but luckily it was a great
weekend to be inside and watch March Madness basketball!

I took them Sarah + Mark to my favorite nursery on Saturday! They were having a Spring Open house and they had exhibits set up in side their greenhouse - it was heaven!!

Smelled like summer inside!
Sarah and I decided to pick out plants and pot them there to remember our weekend together - we both picked the "HOPE" plant! She planted a small one so it would be easy to carry home on Monday on her flight!
While the adults were at the nursery, the tweens and teens went shopping by themselves . . . and Izzy bought some slippers just like Kate's so Kate was excited to put hers on with her when they got home!
Then they put them on Bear . . .
He is SO patient with us.
Saturday night we celebrated Sarah's 33rd birthday (a week early)!!

The girls wanted to do a Ping Pong Bracket and Molly made this
bracket for us - I luckily got the first round "bye"! If you had a star by your name
it meant that you got to pick who serves first and which side of table you were on.

The girls got "dressed" for the competition! I played ROCKY music as they came down!

Let's get this competition started!
Izzy won the whole thing!!! WAHOO!!!!
Posing with her winning bracket!
The older girls wanted to "work out" at the gym together . . .

Then a movie night with popcorn . . .
The girls asked to get their nails done together too -
so Sarah and I waited while they got their "fancy nails!"
Oh la la! Love their pastel colors . . .
Swingin' Cousins while Sarah + I walked Bear to the park . . .
Out for ice-cream, of course!
Lots of rummikub for us sisters!
Not to brag or anything . . . but I just happen to have a photo of the score.
