Yes, a whole week.... To finally share all of the happenings that took place while ALL of our children were here, along with their spouses and children- Happy Day

Words can not express what pure joy it was to have them all home-
"Other things may change us, but we start and end with Family."

The River and Kent's Gold Quest-
The gold-
Swimming in April; some because they wanted to, others with a little help.
Just Playing in the Bubble Room-
Eating-
The Big Party-
As we were preparing for the party- Anna asked where the party hats were- {you know you can't have a party without party hats...silly me} so ribbons came to the rescue - I think they are very nice, and prettier than some store bought cardboard one. Heidi has more about the party, check her site.
The Big Race-
Fire-pit- Conner was the master "Peeps" roaster- It was a fabulous time, but came to an end much too soon- Can't wait until we are together again- {I got a sneak peek at the family picture amazing, Bree and Denver are just adorable in their engagement pictures- {sorry guys I saw them first.} So there you have it....the whole story. If you think you missed something check out these earlier posts- Boy Oh Boy, Cooking with the girls, MTC, {or as Conner would say, The Empty Sea- go here to read something so funny you will cry!} Mission farewell and All I really need is Family.
