Our sweet Colton has missed his Dallas friends since moving out west (his mommy and daddy have too!). He spent so much time with his special friend Mia, I knew the transition away from her would be difficult. She has been his closest friend in his short 2 1/2 years and he loves her! Well, she came to see us a few weeks ago and for one special weekend all was right in Colton's world! :) I went picture crazy trying to capture all the fun we had during Mia's stay at our house. And, the best part about Mia coming was that her awesome family came with her! So, everyone had a friend to hang out with all weekend.
I'd decided to keep their arrival a secret from Colton....telling him just as he went down for his nap there'd be a surprise for him when he woke up. Mia was napping when he woke up, but Maggie was obviously the next best thing because he immediately showered her with love and attention.

so cute!

He was one happy boy!

Hugging Mia and seeing her for the first time

Sadie and Maggie were so cute - they both seemed so excited to have another baby around

Playing with his BFF on his new playground (thanks to his awesome daddy!)

A little Easter Egg hunt in the backyard
Marc grew up in Midland, so we HAD to get Rosa's the first night...we all have a common obsession with the deliciousness of Rosa's.
Fun around the house....
Eating breakfast

I think he's doing tricycle stunts to show off for Mia and Maggie

Sweet Maggie was always so excited to be around Sadie (and loved grabbing her!)
It was funny watching Colton and Mia play, it'd been about a month and a half since they'd seen each other in person (we try to skype every couple of weeks). They didn't skip a beat and resumed their friendship quickly. Colton didn't hold anything back and I'm pretty sure he hit her a few times when she had something he wanted. :) He loves her though and is often singing songs about her in the backseat of the car. She is "my Mia" and Maggie is "my new Maggie" (I think because he knows an older Maggie he calls her "new" Maggie) in all of his songs. :) 
We popped over to Bopa and Lizzy's for a visit


And took a walk to the park

We spent a lot of time swinging (love this picture)


Maggie showing Sadie some love by reaching out for her!

And, the weekend wouldn't have been the same with Mia's mommy along for the trip. Trisha is one of my dearest friends and it was an absolute blessing to have her in town for an entire weekend! I miss her and her sweet girls. After putting the kids down at night we got to stay up and visit (even though we should have been sleeping too!)

They all just loved swinging!


Waiting for brunch at a yummy restaurant


Bubble fun... (Mia is such a beautiful little girl)
