After nearly 2 years of no Pegg-Nelson Reunions, we were finally able to see some of our very best friends, the Pegg Family! They are stationed in South Carolina and so we haven't been able to get together forever, but Derek had some training here at Nellis and Cassie, Ella, and little Jack were all able to come! It was SO fun to get to see them! Jack is 15 months and so we had never met him. He is crazy cute and it was so fun to get to see his personality and not just his pictures. At the end of the first day he warmed up to my and would lay his head on my shoulder, heart-melter for sure! Ella was so grown up, I could hardly believe it! She is such a little doll and I love her personality. Her and Brinley are so alike and they got along awesome! Seriously little life-long best friends, I hope :) It was so fun to catch up with Derek and Cassie. We always have way too much to talk about with them. They are such great parents and just the best people. We were cracking up the whole time, and seriously can't say how much I missed Cassie's awesome laugh :) So yeah, to say the least, we were pretty happy to spend sometime together!
ONLY bad news is that I didn't take enough pictures :( I have realized recently that although taking a bunch of pictures is awesome and I love it, that I do take TOO MANY pictures most of the time and I'm trying to cute back. Well I over did it and now I wish I had way more pictures from there visit! Like a picture of us 4 adults, a picture our families together, and a picture of Ryan, Casen, and Jack... we all think Jack is our long lost child :) Anyways, sad I don't have more pictures, but here is what we got!
Ella came with me to pick up Brinley from 1st grade and we surprised her. She was so excited to see Ella, she was 4 last time she got to see her! They were instant buds again, laughing and playing the whole way home. I just loved it!
Wednesday after school we met Cass and the kids at U-Swirl and loaded up on some yummy fro-yo. The kids loved it and had fun playing around... I think the store was ready to run our crazy kids out by the time we left :)
Poor little Marlee burnt her finger on my curling iron and got two really bad blisters in the inside of her fingers. Broke my heart! One popped the next day and the other one stuck around for a while, I am glad cause the one that popped was so gross :( She is nearly recovered.
Tuesday night we met the Peggs at Nellis AFB for a Sesame Street show. It was a special show that was traveling around to different Air Force bases and putting on a free show for military families. They even have out these awesome spinny-light up toys... not sure what to call them, but the kids loved them! The kids weren't as into the show as we hoped but it was still fun. Afterwards we headed to a Mexican restaurant for dinner... it was quite the night feeding these 5 kiddos and trying to get some conversation in! Marlee was especially pleasant :) Lots of running around, but the kids had a blast and it was still fun to spend time together. Wish I had a picture!
Jack and Marlee had fun riding the roller coaster. I'll be honest, us parents were pretty entertained too :) Jack was nervous at first but loved it!
His face ways way too cute! Look at that smile! :)
Love her face in this one!!
Go Marlee! Love this girl!
Brinley and Ella seriously played so good together! Usually playdates have a few hic-ups, but these girls were seriously the best of friends, I loved it. One night they came down and said they were going to perform for us. They danced and did tricks, and ofcourse Marlee tried to join them. :)
Playing on the swings, they were out here forever!
This is Brinley and Ella playing together 4.5 years ago... it was more of a love/hate relationship...
I remember when we took this pic of the girls, we were cracking up. Look like two crazy girls at a party :)
Hope these girls get to see eachother again much sooner than last time!
