Our Trip Home

Well, we got back from Idaho a week ago. The kids and I had an excellent time. The main reason we went home was because Michael got home from his mission in Carlsbad, CA. We were so excited to see him. The kids were shy at first but warmed right up. It didn't help that there were about 80 people at the airport that came to see him. It was a very exciting time.

We are so happy to see him

Madelyn is scared of this "stranger" She's never met Michael

We missed Isac and Mike there. For some reason they thought med school finals were more important. :) Jordan didn't make it to the airport because he was in class at BYU but he made it home later that night.

Madelyn got her hair cut. She looks so much older with it cut. I think it's so cute.

Madelyn also enjoyed her food!



Finally, our family bowling trip was awesome. Drake loved throwing (literally) the ball down the lane. Madelyn would try and chase after the ball then slip and fall on the slippery lane.

We were in Idaho last week and we saw Michael. He seemed really happy! We went up to Idaho to go to Stoddard Creek but it rained all weekend so the whole fam decided not to go.

Madelyn's hair looks really cute. I cute Eva's hair this weekend too!

Madison's hair looks so cute! I want to see a front picture of it. Rats, I'll just be missing you out west. I leave with my two boys on Tuesday for Utah as my brother gets home from his mission. That would've been fun to see you at the airport or something. How are you doing and do you have any advice for me with flying with two?
