Kristen Comes to Visit

On Sunday, November 25th, Kristen, Audrey, and Sammy flew into Vegas to come and visit us for a week.   Ken drove down and picked them up.  They got here in time to get ready and go to our 11 am church.  Things were a little rough in sacrament meeting with two tired children, but both LOVED Primary.  Audrey came out skipping and singing, "I got two cookies.  I got two cookies."
That evening, Michelle, Brian and family came through on their way home from SLC where they spent Thanksgiving with Brian's family.  We had a delicious meal of meatloaf, mashed potatoes and gravy, rolls, peas and carrots, orange jello salad and pecan pie for dessert.

It was so fun to be together.
Our daughters love each other and don't get to see each other often enough.

I love this picture.  The other kids are off playing, but Gabbi rather listen to the adults visit.  She soaks it all in.


We all went out to lunch at Kristen's favorite Pasta factory.

Ken took the kids to our park behind our house several times, but one afternoon we all went to the Thunder Junction all abilities park.  It's a favorite stop for us when the grandkids come.



Audrey wasn't happy we were driving to a park, and not just playing at the one behind our home.  She was pretty grumpy the whole way in the car, but within seconds of arriving, she was all smiles.




Sammy loved the zip line.




The choo choo train was so fun.  All aboard! !!




The music section is so fun.






Audrey was so proud that she learned to pump herself on the swing while we were there.


Kristen was there for several of our first Keynote performances.  This was at our ward's RS Christmas party.

We went to the temple one evening and sealed lots of daughters to their parents, then went out to dinner at Café Sabors.  It was such a nice evening with our eldest daughter.



On Saturday morning, we packed up and headed to Vegas.  We got to visit with lots of cousins after Sonora's baptism.

We then went to Michelle's and made and decorated sugar cookies and had a nice dinner.







Brian barbecued chicken, roasted asparagus, and sweet potatoes.




After dinner, we decorated sugar cookies before Ken and I headed back.  Michelle and Brian took  Kristen and kids to the airport the next day.
