Family comes to visit!

Before we get started, if you like to give me input on decorating, please GO HERE. If you roll your eyes at that sort of thing, please continue and do not GO HERE.

We had some visitors come watch General Conference with us!

Dan's sister Katherine, her hubby Dan (yeah...we have two Matt-in-laws too, so it does get confusing at times), and their two girls, and Dan's dad. 

Katherine's family is visiting from Chicago, so we don't get to see them much, so we loved every second of having them here!

As usual, I didn't take enough pictures. 

On Sunday, we took a walk to the Columbia River temple. It was a gorgeous day!

Look at these cute cousins!!!

I wasn't fast enough, but all three were peering in through the windows at the same time. The line from the temple song popped in my head "I'll go inside some day..." and I almost cried. Almost. 

Annie and Brinly became great friends. 

Annie let Brinly do her hair! If Annie tried to get up, Brinly wrapped her hands around Annie's shoulders and plopped her back down. Such a good sport. 

During the priesthood session, Katherine was helping me get dinner ready. We heard Michael's dramatic cry: "Mom! Mom!!!!!! Brinly is doing something REALLY bad!"

Brinly is always doing something "really bad" and Michael is always being dramatic about it. So, we kind of rolled our eyes, but went to go see what the fuss was about. 

And we found this:

yes, that is Annie STRAPPED into the doll stroller about to go for a ride down the stairs. Both just looked at us like "What's the big deal?" 

Thank you Michael, for being dramatic! :)

Thank you Millers and Grandpa for the fun visit!
