Sisters are the best










My sister Arika got to come down to my home for a week. We had so much fun. It was a little crazy with the kids at times but that's what makes the fun and memories. Arika is such an example to me of what a patient and loving mom should be, even at the age of 21 with two kids. She always had made the best of her situations and seen the positive in everything and everyone. Her sweet kids are so much fun and always keep us laughing. We did so many fun things, the childrens museum at the gateway, shopping, and the dinosaur museum. Oakleigh was so funny at the dinosaur 3-d movie. She thought of course they were going to get her so she would reach out and try to grab every animal. At one point I was coming back to my seat so my backside was faced toward the screen and Oakleigh yells "Mom watch out the sea monster is going to eat your butt." She is such a delight to have in our family. I was so glad that my sister came when she did, it was a much needed break to be with her and spend time with our kids. Arika is the greatest and although we are five years apart we are like twins, finishing each others sentances, reading each others minds, and never going too long with out talking on the phone. I love ya sis and I am so glad you are my only sis, you know what we say would happen if their was a sister between us.

Hey Auds! It's great to hear from you! I am doing really well. We just got home from Idaho Falls. It was a busy weekend for us. I will post some pics soon. Did you have a good Father's Day? We took my Dad to Jackson Hole then to Yellowstone it was great. You will need to work on that husband of yours. You need a dog, they are great! Your girls would be thrilled. We have a yellow lab named Dave. Then a boarder collie/healer mix his name is Toby. They are outside dogs. I will post some pictures of them too. YES!!! Mandy was my mom's dog. It died right when my parents got divorced. She has a new one now :) So you live in Toole?

Hey Lamont it was good to hear from you. So what are you doing around June or July of 2014. The world cup will be in Brazil that year. Can you imagine what that place will be like hosting the World Cup. Anyways I think we should go. I'll be done with school by then and have maybe a quarter of my school loans payed back. You have a great looking family, hopefully we'll get to see you soon. Good luck with the scouting. talk to you later.

I'm so glad that you found our blog! It's fun when we can connect like that. Your little girls are just too cute! I was looking at them at church today and I was thinking how much fun its going to be to dress up this new baby girl! I'm just nervous about having to do her hair. Just doing my own is enough of a struggle.
