Well, we sent Sandi off this week with lots of long sad faces. We got to enjoy Monday with her, then took her to the airport in the evening. Since the weather has been generally good (with a few exceptions) we have been enjoying the outdoor weather. I took James out on his little tricycle - he went SO slow that we only got about 3 houses away before we had to turn back because it was getting too late! He walked himself along and stopped every foot or so to count things (1-2-3 rocks! 1-2-3 flowers!) or to point things out to me (car mommy! rocks mommy! trees mommy!)
Heather came over on Tuesday to console us for the loss of Aunt Sandi and to hang out with us for awhile. Wednesday we went to the library - we have banned the kids from checking out books - but we still like going to story time and seeing our friends. Tayanna was actually excited to see me when I got to her house to pick them up!
Friday night, Newell and Becky came over - we left the kids with Jacob and went out to dinner, then played games at the house for awhile. I always enjoy seeing Newell and Becky - but especially so when we get to chat about our upcoming trip to Paris!!!!
Saturday and Sunday were General Conference. We all really enjoyed it! Eileen actually sat and watched/listened to the whole thing - knitting the whole time! It was so cute to watch her. :)
Between sessions, we took advantage of the beautiful weather - Anna tried to help Aaron learn how to ride a bike. It was so sweet to watch her trying to help her brother!
Sunday evening, we had friends over for dinner - we all had a great time eating and chatting - then the kids ran amok - going crazy and climbing all over Nate. James and the kids discovered horsey rides - and they all want to give him horsey rides - he holds on to their hair (ouch!!) and says "giiddy-uuup!" His balance on their wiggly backs isn't so great - so he doesn't stay up long - but it's fun to watch anyway!
