THE FAMILY. We were a strange little band of characters trudging through life sharing diseases and toothpaste, coveting one another's desserts, hiding shampoo, borrowing money, locking each other out of our rooms, inflicting pain and kissing to heal it in the same instant, loving, laughing, defending, and trying to figure out the common thread that bound us all together. ~Erma Bombeck

Visit from Dear Friends

At the end of February we were so lucky to spend some time with our friends the Chuggs and Allreds.  The Chuggs were visiting from Germany and we hadn't seen them in almost two years.  And the Allreds came down from Utah to join the party!

Mia was so excited to spend time with Hanna and Aspen.  The girls loved playing Spoons and several other fun games.



And even though it was a school night we decided that a sleepover was clearly in order.

So we stretched two queen sized air beds across the playroom floor.  

They stayed up until almost midnight, chatting and giggling.  It was adorable.


The following day we brought Aspen and Hanna to Mia's school to have lunch with her and Kateyln, along with their old teacher Mrs. Montgomery.  We ate Port of Subs in the courtyard and had a blast.





Mia is so lucky to have such amazing friends.

And the trip was great fun for Luke too.  He was able to play with his best buddy Ammon.  They picked up right where they left off.  I love watching the two of them together!

Thanks for spoiling Hanna while we were there and letting her move in. It was the highlight of her weeks to see her favorite girl friends. It was just too short. She misses them so much and so does her mom! Thanks again for making her visit so special. She is still talking about your breakfast burritos and mad cooking skills.
