After Bear Lake

After our Bear Lake vacation with Dan's family was over, instead of go home, we went to my sisters to stay for a couple of days. The primary reason we stayed at my sisters was because my little brother was speaking in church prior to leaving on his mission the following Sunday. We decided it would be a better use of our time if we stayed down South instead of come home and then drive back a couple days later. So we stayed. We loved staying with them! Livie adores her little cousin and we always have fun visiting and playing games with my sister and her husband. My sister is an amazing hostess and planned incredible meals for every single meal we were there {really made me feel badly for the times I make my company eat cold cereal for breakfast . . . oops} and we stayed up late every single night playing games and talking to our hearts content. When my sister and I get together, we can talk and talk and talk - our poor husbands usually just sit back and listen for hours. Amber and I always enjoy it. :)

Livie is so very helpful. As you can see, her cousin really appreciated it! ;)


Whenever one of us was holding the baby, Livie had to be there too. I'm sure this is a sign of what is to come. :)

All of these pictures are of after my brother spoke in his ward before leaving on his mission. He has been called to serve in the California, San Jose, mission. He's been out there for a couple weeks now {after spending about three weeks at the MTC} and he loves it! I'm sure he'll be a great missionary. His talk was really great too. He did quote Yoda and a couple Batman movies during his talk, but he also used plenty of scriptures and honesty. He did great.





These are some of my brother's friends who came to support him:
