My mother and sister, Rachel, were traveling from Carson City, NV to Niles, MI. We had them stop in Utah for lunch while they were passing through. My other sister, Emma, and her kids joined us. The kids were able to visit, we adults were able to visit, and we all got to eat good food. We went to the Jimmy John's in Bountiful.
My kids have gotten a lot of visiting family this past weekend. We had gone to Emma's on Thursday because our cousin, Laura, was bringing her son, Steven, out here to attend BYU. Her mother, my aunt Glenda, also came. It was nice to see some extended family.
Well, the little ones talked us into having a sleep over. So, Chloe & Cooper stayed the night. I came back up the next day, Friday, with a change of clothes and swimsuits. Emma's ward was having a pool party. We joined them. Zane stayed the night, along with Cooper & Chloe. The kids stayed Saturday also to go so Toy Story 3 with their cousins. Then Emma brought them all to my house on Sunday.
It was weird getting ready for church that Sunday morning without hounding little ones to hurry and eat breakfast, brush their teeth, take a bath, get dressed in Sunday clothes, quit fighting over who sits where in the minivan, etc.
We had a nice Father's Day dinner. Kyle had a steak, we had ribs, shrimp skewers, roasted herb potatoes, pasta salad, and brownies with ice cream. Yum, yum!

ReplyDeleteit was quite the weekend! and for the most part they behaved pretty well. I only had to say "Crying? There's no crying in baseball!" once. But other than that, there was no fighting. And they pretty much fended for themselves while I studied (w/ headphones) on Saturday. It was all good.
