Weekend Extravaganza!!

On Thursday my sister, niece, and sister-in-law flew here for GIRLS' WEEKEND!!! It was the annual St. Luke Women's Walk, a walk I have participated in every year I've been in Idaho except for last year because I was bigger than a whale (also, it rained so I didn't feel too bad about missing out that year). This was their first time at the walk and we had such a great time. You really could not have asked for better weather during their stay--it immediately turned to fall when they left, though. They must be good luck. We sure enjoyed having them visit--come anytime, ladies!!

Can I just tell you how much I love this jogging stroller? It rolls like butter on warm bread. Really. Plus, the boys look totally adorable when they sit in it together. Win win.

I promise Miss Emery did actually have a better time than she looks like she's having in this picture. While my boys slept through most of the walk, this little miss treated us to a lovely narrative of all that was going on around her. She just loved all the people and they all loved her and her adorable pigtails.

Here we are pre-walk. Marcus didn't actually do the walk with me this year, instead he got to have some Daddy time. Also, for those who haven't yet had the blessing to see our ghetto truck--there it is in the background with the Bronco sticker. Emma, Nicole, and I had fun cruising around in it on Friday night. Hurray for late night Target runs!

All the babies received matching shirts for the walk. So cute.

On Saturday night, my cousin Rachelle joined us and we went to the General Relief Society Broadcast. First we had dinner at Olive Garden. Yummy. This picture is a little blurry and I know it looks like I'm crowding Emma with my hair, but really, I was just trying to get closer to her because her lotion smells REALLY good. After the broadcast we watched Benny and Joon. Nicole had never seen it and we could no longer let her go on with life without having seen that chick flick classic. You're welcome, Nicole.

The girls flew home on Sunday, but the party wasn't over yet because Kimberlie and Tyler were also in town! Monday was full of Marcus sharing all of his favorite things with his favorite cousin. We fed the ducks, played at the park, took Tyler to the Nature Center where Marcus went on his field trip, played in the fountain, and concluded the day o' fun with one of Tyler's favorite things: apple slushies from Sonic.

Tyler, Marcus loves you very very much. Thanks, for coming to play at our house.
