Jackpot

Our day started early with group pictures of the cheerleading squad before the game.  Shortly after that Gigi and Papa arrived at the game with Harper to watch Handley cheer.  Harper was very excited to see us and tell me all about her special time with Gigi and Papa.  Handley was equally excited to tell Gigi and Papa that she couldn't wait to go home with them.

Handley received the leadership star again today and did a great job.  After the game we all went to Stevie B's for lunch.  The girls had filled up their marble jars and Stevie B's was their choice for a reward.  It was Handley's lucky day today because the very first token she put in to the first game she played she hit the JACKPOT and won 1,000 tickets!!!!!!  I couldn't believe it and neither could she.  The tickets kept coming and coming and coming.  Papa was put in charge of standing guard while they kept spitting out of the machine. With that many tickets you'd think they would have gotten a really amazing prize, but they were thrilled with lots of little things (2 Pez dispensers, a barrel of monkey game, princess crown, army man figurine and push pop).

This afternoon we went over to our friends Brad and Lizzi's house to watch the UGA game and while we were there the mom's snuck out to get a quick pedicure!  It was so nice to have a little pampering and some fun girl time with my friends.  I took Hudson with me, just because he is so easy and he slept the entire time.  When we got back the guys were still watching football, the babies were napping and Harper was snoozing on the couch.

Here the guys were checking out boats online

All afternoon Harper kept asking, "What's Ree-Ree probably doin'?" and telling me, "I miss Handley" so we called her on our way home to check in and she was having a wonderful time.  Harper was missing Handley tonight, but loved getting to take a bath with Hudson and have some special time with us.

I know the girls each enjoyed having some special time with Gigi and Papa, but being apart from each other just solidified what I already knew...these girls LOVE each other dearly and are best of friends.
