Time with the Martins

This weekend we had some of the Martins come into town and stay with us for a couple of days. We had a blast and it was great for Nat and Kate to spend some time with their cousins. We got to use every seat at the dinner table finally. Everyone was so helpful when it came to getting dinner ready and setting the table. I got the real feeling of having a big family and it is a lot of work but I do have to admit that it was fun.
Guitar Hero was played all weekend long and when it wasn't your turn to play yet everyone was parked on the couch until they were up.
Natalie was so glad the Lane was here. She loved playing with him and he would wrestle with her. I think she like having boys around to play with. Amos and Michelle came by and we took everyone to Bullwinkle's. I think everyone had a blast. I got up early on Sunday before they left and made cupcakes with Taylor and Natalie. Taylor wanted to make cupcakes so bad but when it was time to put the frosting and the sprinkles on she had lost interest. Paul's sister Liz loves kids and Kate was her buddy all weekend long. Anytime I told Kate no to something she would go running to Liz and ask. Of course Liz was a good aunt and gave in to her every time.
We had so much fun that I can't wait till Christmas till we all get together again.
