Long weekend

We had a very fun and very long weekend last weekend. My mom, the girls and I took off for Billings on Friday morning, did a little shopping and met my sister, brother-in-law and the boys in Billings. Later that afternoon, my brother and sister-in-law and Neil and my dad met us and the weekend began!

Saturday morning we went to Red Lodge to go skiing for the day. Mom and dad were only planning on taking care of Locklyn because we were going to have Kynlie and Lincoln ski,but they don't make boots small enough for Kynlie's feet so we decided that neither of them would ski, mom and dad had all 3 of them, couped up in the lodge all day, they said they were good, but it had to be hard keeping the two bigger kids occupied!

After we were done skiing, we went back to Billings, got takeout for supper and went swimming at the hotel. There were water slides, a wave pool and a little kiddie swim/slide area. The only bad thing was that it was SOOO cold that Kynlie and Lincoln didn't last long, Kynlie's lips and hands were blue she was so cold!

We played a game and everyone was so tired from all the excitement that we didn't stay up too late. We made a Costco run and ate lunch on Sunday and everyone took off for home, except for us!

We had made an appointment for Kynlie in Rapid City on Monday morning for a consult visit for her eye surgery to straighten her eyes. Her appointment went good, except it was a little weird because we were there because we were referred there for the surgery and they just checked her eye alignment, vision and checked if she uses both eyes equally. He told us everything we already knew about her eyes, then asked if we were interested in surgery. I was under the assumption that's what he was checking her eyes for, not just a second opinion! We got surgery scheduled for March 27, but we will have to be there earlier the day before for a pre-op visit to make sure nothing has changed.

The girls were great all weekend, Kynlie did wake up at 1am on Friday night and we couldn't get her to go back to sleep but she took a good nap on the table at the Ski Lodge so she wasn't  a monster on Saturday! It is so fun to see her playing with her cousins too, she absolutely loves those boys! Lincoln loves babies too, he helped mom hold Locklyn, burp her, he kisses her constantly, it is so cute watching him love on Locklyn!
