Kristen's Vist from Cali

Kristen came to Utah 2 weekends ago and it was SO much fun to have her here! I was so happy to see her and baby Jax and catch up on being away from each other. One thing that has helped being apart is both have iphones so we can do Face Time whenever we want. So we can still see each other and each others kids.

Thursday was mainly just getting ready for Jennie's baby shower all day and taking care of the kiddos.



Friday we went to my Dad's work at the church office building and ate lunch with him. We always did this during our Elementary and Junior High days whenever we'd have holidays or time off of school. We have always loved eating lunch with Dad.

After lunch, we went to the new City Creek Center in Salt Lake. It was opening weekend so we didn't go into many shops, due to the high traffic, but it is absolutely beautiful and it was fun walking around.




We had to even stand in line at the Disney store. Emma LOVED it though!!! She went crazy with the princesses and loved this "magical mirror". They made it a fun experience.


Friday night, she slept over at my house and just ate dinner, watched a chick flick and giggled til late :). Saturday morning we went on a walk around the neighborhood and went to a couple stores for fun and just hung out at the house. Then on Kristen's way back to Bountiful we all went to Nathan and Steph's house and all hung out for a little while. Then Kristen flew back Sunday morning back to Santa Barbara.




These pictures are great. Emma is definitely skinny (both my girls are), but this shows what a BIG boy Jaxon is! He is 6 months old and 22 lbs. Emma is 2 and 1/2 years old and 24 lbs :). We kinda have both of the extremes!




Mom and Dad's new toy :). Hopefully we'll get to have lots of fun time out on the water this summer!


This is random but I had to post this picture too of Boose's rag quilt she just finished because it is beautiful! And definitely a project Kristen and I want to do in the future. Boose is so talented.

It was fun to have you here, Kristen! Come back soon so we can play :). I love you so much!
