SLUMBER PARTY






Wayne and I started this tradition by necessity right after we got married. The summer after we got married Boise had 17 days of 100 degrees or higher! So we pulled a mattress out into our living room where our little air conditioner was. When we moved to Utah we did it for fun. We would rent a movie, play games and eat treats. When we had Liv Wayne insisted on carrying on the tradition. I think we did this with her before she was even 1. Wayne wanted Gavin to sleep with us but I had to lay down the law because I knew he wouldn't sleep well. So I let Liv and Gavin have a little mattress fun with daddy before Gavin had to go to his bed. Then we ate cinnamin popcorn from the popcorn station and watched this:

I love that movie ... Michael and I watched it for family night a few weeks back with Madi. It was really a good movie. I never thought about the slumber party part ... we might have to try that when Madi gets older. Sounds like lots of fun.
