Our Next and Last Stop

After our stop to see our friends, we drove another 2+ hours to visit Grandpa and Nana Judy. This was the last time we would get to see them before their big trip to South Africa. I still can't believe that they will be there for 2 whole years!
The week was full of hugs, kisses, snuggles, and lots of laughing and playing. We didn't have plans all week, we just soaked up all the Grandpa and Nana we could.

Molly liked to "help" Grandpa pick the raspberries......really, she just liked eating them! This was a little game they played, Molly loves to swing, and Molly loves to eat raspberries....why not put the two together?

We play in the backyard for hours on the teeter-totter


Grandpa took us to a farm



Swinging is our favorite



And last, but not least....the most important reason for our trip! Good luck on your mission, we know you will make an important difference in the lives of the people you teach!

Our First Stop

The girls and I took a little road trip last week. Adam had to work and then went to Scout camp, so we thought it was a good idea to go and visit some friends and family.
Our first stop was to see Danielle, Denton, Cohen, and Fenway! It was fun to spend a few days with our friends who moved away from us last summer. We're glad they let us stay with them!
When we got there, Denton took the kids for a ride in the bike trailer......in the yard. They LOVED it!


One afternoon we took the kids down to the lake. We took lots of watermelon that the kids devoured up like we hadn't fed them all day. We swam, played in the sand, and looked at some fish. It was a hot day so the cool water felt so good.


Cohen and Elley played this crazy game of chase, tackle, chase, tackle, laugh, laugh hard, fall down, laugh, chase, and tackle. Sorry this picture is so dark!


And Molly watched them play this game.



Molly and Cohen as cute as can be. The only way to get them to sit still for a picture was to put Barney on.
Thanks again for letting us stay with you guys....next time I'll bring Adam too!
