Michigan!

Okay, so its not the best picture of any of us, but its the only one that we are all in! This is a picture of my friends from high school/elementary and their spouses. In fact Candi (black and white top, pregnant--middle) and I have been friends since 3rd grade! From left to right in Front: Lori, Casey and Candi, Melissa, Jenelle and Chester behind with Nora; Back: Atila with Kevin and Lisa, Crystal and Josh.

I had a lot of fun checking out my ol' stompin' grounds. I dragged Naomi along with me and I don't think she had as much fun as I did, but we were able to get to Michigan's Adventure (a small, but fun amusement/water park--2 parks for the price of 1!) I made it to my 10-year class reunion, saw lots of friends and had some good food. I think the most fun was going back to our old branch on Sunday and seeing all the old friends and families we don't keep in touch with. Plus there is something about getting reassured that you did the right thing by moving when you did! hee hee.

I would like everyone to note I did not have any children with me. Why you may ask? Well, because I have the best husband EVER and he took care of all the kids while I got to go play!! I can't wait for the next time!

Colorado!

We had tons of fun in Colorado! The boys enjoyed going to the Rockies game with Uncle Ben and Brian, while the girls had a girl's night with shopping, ice cream and a "make-up party"!











We all got to go to the Littleton Historic farm, see some animals, watch a blacksmith hammer out a door hook, had a fun little picnic and play with the interactive kid stuff inside.

Here is Daniel, Kaylee and Alison talking to the piggie inside the gate!











While at the house, the cousins had a blast together! The boys' favorite part at home was playing in the basement and playing baseball in the backyard with Brian. Kaylee's favorite part was playing princesses with Alison and dancing all over the kitchen with their tap and ballet shoes! It was soo cute!

We also decided that once Ashley and Kathryn get old enough they will have just as much fun with each other as the other cousins did! Overall, we had a great time and we look forward to seeing them again in three weeks in Oregon!
