The sleepover update

Well, the sleepover was fun... while it lasted! Elizabeth went home around 10:30 because she was getting homesick. But before that happened, they had a great time.

Here they are eating Chicken strips, green beans, and pasta salad.


After a bubble bath, getting warm in front of the corn stove:


After brushing their teeth, they got snuggled up on the couch to watch VeggieTales.

When I put them in bed at 9:15, they read books together for 45 minutes.

At 10:00 we turned out the light (with the closet light and the nightlight still on, of course), and they were both getting tired. Then one of them started crying, and they were making each other more and more upset. Tired girls can be pretty emotional. :) So Elizabeth called her mom, who decided to come and get her. 5 minutes after hearing that her mom was on the way, Elizabeth was asleep, and Milena was only a minute or two behind.

On our next sleepover, we will aim for all night! :))

So there you have the update!
