Paige had her friend Amanda from school sleep over Friday night, which was kind of a last minute decision, but boy did they have a great time together. Paige just started the sleepovers the later part of this school year. While she had been okay having friends stay over at our house, she has always been a little scared to go stay at someone else's house, but now she is starting to learn just how much fun sleepovers can be! After Amanda left on Saturday, Paige's actual birthday, we had a family picnic at Rolesville Park. We were joined by Mom and Dad Heller and my Grandma Sandwick. It ended up being a very hot day, but we enjoyed eating our lunch and taking a walk around the park trail. The kids brought their bikes and rode all over the place. 
Of course, they loved the playground. Paige also opened her family presents while we were there. Grandma knitted Paige a colorful hat and scarf for the winter, which Paige really liked. By the time we got home, we were all hot and sweaty, so Dave and I decided to get out the blow up pool and set it up on our deck and let the kids play. It took forever to get the thing blown up, but it was worth it because the kids had a blast, and so did Dave and I. It was very refreshing! I caught this picture of Paige and Alex hugging each other, and I just love this one. They were having so much fun together, which was really nice to see.
