With five young kids we normally opt for a hotel these days (with at least a separate bedroom and a kitchen is possible!) lest we cause havoc on someone elses home. But Christopher and his wife Alicia reassured us that we were welcome. Christopher is the youngest of 10 children and Alicia is the oldest of 6 and so they are used to alot of bodies being around. And they were fabulous hosts.
We had an awesome time! I had not meet Christopher or Alicia before but immediately found lots of common ground and things to chat about. We also have 3 boys the same ages and so the kids got along great too. We checked out downtown Greenville - definitely worth a visit and alot better than Augusta. The kids burned off some energy at Giggle Bugs, an inflatable jump house. And we were able to leave the kids with a baby sitter (all 8!) and go out for dinner on Saturday night.
Some pics from the weekend....

I love that even though we are across the ocean - we have exactly the same blanket. xx
Oh, I had hoped to get you all the pictures before you posted on your blog, but you have put me to shame - you are WAY more on top of things than I am! =) We had such a great time with your whole family - we've talked frequently of how fun you all were and how crazy it was how much we all had in common! We hope that it was the first of many more visits back and forth!
