I Loved Last Week

It's always a fun time when family comes around. We were lucky enough to not only see 1 set of grandparents, but both sets of grandparents!! Hooray!

First up: Gma and Gpa Owens.
They decided to make a trip down to see us and boy were we glad they did!

I love this picture. Gpa and Hayden doing story time with an audience. See how well they are listening?

My parents now have 2 dogs. We still have only 1. They really like going on walks, so here is Gma taking on all 3 pups at the same time.

And Gpa pushing Hayden.

We were fortunate enough to be with my mom on her birthday. We went to dinner, where Hayden decided to eat about 15 olives in a row. Not even kidding. That's a lot. And she enjoyed every last one of them.

Happy Birthday MOM! Hayden is so excited for you...:)

We had a pretty relaxing time with them in town. It's always so hard for me when they leave. I don't get to see them nearly as much as I would like.

They were here for about a week, but it wasn't supposed to be that long. They ended up staying an extra day because this happened the morning they were supposed to leave back for Washington:

Yep, it snowed about 6 inches. This happened to be the same day we left for Las Vegas to see Gma and Gpa McCain and the Lewis Family, AKA-Cousins! So we packed up and left my parents in charge of our house until the roads were clear enough for them to travel north.

We made it safe and sound and Hayden got to play with Brooks and Ade for an entire weekend.

Such a great picture.

Eating a a delicious buffet in Vegas. This is the ONLY family picture we got while down there. Way to go.

Even though it was 50 degrees outside, we still went swimming. The pools were heated and it actually felt really nice. It was just funny to see everyone walking around with parkas and ear muffs while we were relaxing in the pool. I guess we are just used to Utah weather so 50 degrees feels like summer :)

It was soooo fun to watch these 3 play together. So fun. I wish they lived closer.

We love Grandma!

And this was one of the best parts of the trip. Hayden and Gpa reading together.

While we were at the Hotel, Mom McCain was nice enough to treat me to a pedicure, which was incredible. I also got to take home the bottle of polish they used as part of the deal. Hayden loved my toes, so when we got home, she really wanted to paint her toes just like mommy. So she did. And did a pretty good job :)

My little girl is growing up.

So pretty!

THANK YOU to Mom and Dad Owens for coming to visit us and loving us, and THANK you to Mom and Dad McCain for hooking us up with a sweet vacation spot to get away and hang out with some of our favorite people. I'm bummed I wasn't better about taking more pictures. Heather and Brandon, you guys are amazing. We had so much fun with you! Thanks for having cute kids that not only treat Hayden like a good cousin, but also like a good friend. She really misses them! We love you all!

This is just a little snippet of the kids playing together and our car ride home. I thought it was funny...
