Sutton Family Gathering

This last weekend was a busy one again, but it was pretty fun. I was on-call all night for the whole weekend, and Friday was an awful night. I didn't get home until 5:20am. So after some sleep, I spent the day hanging out with John and Emma. It was a beautiful day, and we spent most of the day outside playing in the sandbox and all the outdoor toys.

Luckily, Saturday night went a lot better at work. We went in to finish up one case, and we were in and out in 45 minutes. Then we stayed home the rest of the night.

Sunday was a fun day. We went to Brookings to see some of John's family, who live in New York City. So, Matt and Elizabeth (who live in NYC) have 5 girls, Andy and Emily (who live in Kansas) have one daughter, and then you add Emma to the mix, and there were 7 little girls under the age of 9 running around and playing.  It was pretty fun, and it was nice to visit and catch up with everyone.

After some lunch, and some more visiting, it was time to head back home. Once we were home, we all took about an hour nap, we were beat from being in the sun all day and chasing all those girls around all afternoon!!

Once we were all refreshed, we ate supper, then played in the backyard for a while. Emma was super-charged after her power nap.

We didn't get Emma settled down and to bed until around 10:00 pm. Whoops. We hit the hay shortly after that. And I got to stay home and sleep all night, so that was fabulous. 

We had a great family weekend :)
