Texas Trip

We seriously have had a fun summer! A few days after getting home from Nauvoo, we packed up and went to Texas. David's nephew, Lofton, was leaving on an LDS mission to Brazil. We decided to make it a long weekend and go down to see him off. Our kids had never met Greg and Cachet's family so it was definitely time to go visit.



 It was fun to see Grandma Bean, Uncle Tim and Haley who came from California.
 My girls fell in love with their cousins Aspen and Olivia.
 And Dallin learned how to give a "fist bump"
 Carmen so badly wanted to be included with the teenagers. See her at the end of the table with them all? Every where we went, she was with them. They were so nice to include her.



 This was Dallin's first time bowling - funny thing is it was bowling that put me into labor with him!

 He loved the ball return more than anything. I was so worried he was going to get his fingers smashed by the balls when they came shooting up.
 I think Carmen loved the dogs more than anything else! This is Buckeye, and I'm pretty sure Carmen would have put him in her suitcase if she could have.


 Having served my own LDS mission in Brazil, I was in love with these adorable cookies. Not only were they cute, but also delicious.


 I've always thought Aliza looks so much like her cousin Haley.

 We spent most of our time just talking and playing games.
 I guess somewhere floating around there is a picture of David in his missionary suit holding baby Lofton. So of course we had to get a picture of Lofton holding Dallin. Hmm... I'd love to have that picture.
Going home after 3 weeks of traveling. And our flight wad delayed. But the kids had fun watching the planes.
