Shelia and Dylan arrived Thursday afternoon for a visit. We took the kids outside to play. They really liked playing out in the yard and the weather was nice. Not too warm and not too cold. Dylan is running now. He thought chasing Kaia and Tanek was a great game. Hunger finally brought us inside and I made supper.
Vinson rented some movies for us adults to watch. After sending Tanek to his grandmothers for a sleep over and putting the little ones to bed we started our first movie - Band Camp. Definitely not any band camp I've ever been to. Next we watched The Island. It was enjoyable. The action scenes were a bit much. I mean, come on, the police car was just cut in two after being hit by a big Wells Fargo type truck and they get out with only minor scratches! We finally got to bed about midnight.
This morning Kaia woke me up with the sun. Everyone was pretty sluggish and we were all yawning for most of the day. I took Shelia to my favorite thrift store here in Bunkie. You just cannot beat the prices. Of course Tanek and Kaia had to bring along some money to get something for themselves. Hey, wasn't Christmas less than a week away. Oh well, Tanek got some Lincoln Logs and Kaia found a puzzle. We tried going to the video store that's closing in town to look for some good movie deals but of course they weren't going to open for another hour so we headed back home.
They left about 4:30 pm to go visit some other friends. I'm really glad they made the trip out here. I enjoyed the company. We don't get to see Shelia often but hopefully we will see her and Dylan again soon.

The Island - Don't forget my favorite scene where the clones fall from 50 stories up while hanging onto a sign.
Luckily they landed in a net.
Band Camp - Well, I never went to a band camp like that one either. But hey, it would have been fun.
Some of our bus trips came close!
The Island - Who could forget that scene.
