Crazy playdate...

that wasn't so crazy after all.

So you would think if you got 17, no I mean 18 kids together ranging in age from 1.2-11 yrs that your house would be filled with chaos, right? Amazingly enough it was quite calm. All of the Posse kids got together with their moms and came over to our house for a Christmas break play date. We never know what to expect and of course we always expect the worse. (because you just never know with kids, right?) We are always astounded that when we do get them together they all behave for the most part and we don't have to do much.

They all started coming over at 10:30 and left around 1:30ish. And I think we were able to sit around the kitchen table and chat the entire time. We all voted that this was the world's easiest play date.

It is really special to find a group of girls that all get along and then have kids and hubbies that get a long as well. I love that our kids get the opportunity to grow up with a big gaggle of kids. This just makes me happy.

Makes me happy too. I feel so lucky.

I was on the phone with Tony and he said "What's all that noise, is that all the kids?" and I said "no, the kids are quiet..it's the mommies in there laughing making the noise!" :) Love it.

I LOVE our group! Love that our children like each other and play so well together. That was seriously the easiest playdate I've ever been to. And with triple the children than my normal playgroup (which leaves me exhausted at the end).

We definitely need to try it again.

Lol-I totally agree! Easiest playdate ever...I think this means we can blame the husbands for creating chaos during lakehouse weekends ;)

I am soooooo jealous of your posse group!!! I would love to have a group of friends like that. I have friends that I am close to but none of us can ever get together b/c we live in different parts of the state or different parts of town. You all are soooo LUCKY!!!
