Sleep over

We had a bit of drama this summer over the issue of sleep-overs. Specifically "when are you old enough to sleep over a friends house" debate. Annabelle had been invited Hanna's house, I denied the request, the discussion ensued. 

In the end we compromised, I permitted the friend to come over to our house to spend the night.  They swam, they played dress up, they put on a fashion show, they jumped on the trampoline, they sang, one would *think* they would have been tired. 

In fact, they were not. My plan to sneak in and take a picture went awry when the girls were still giggling as I dozed off about midnight. All in all it was good, although for the record I still don't think Annabelle is ready to stay away from home. Or maybe I'm not.
