family visit

i hinted a couple of posts ago about a few highlights that have happened over the last few weeks.  it is about time that i actually share those with you.  so here is the first of a few posts...

my sister and two of my nephews came to visit.  love that!  it is always a highly anticipated trip before they head back to school and the boys always have two things on their to-do list while they are here:  putt putt and go-karts!

we had a fun week.  a few of the items i had on my idea list did not happen due to weather that was uncooperative, but we will try to save some of those ideas for the next trip.

take a look at some of the fun we had:

we painted pottery!  this was the first time for them.

fun at the splash park in town.

the boys played at the bounce house while it rained and rained outside.

we played putt putt, raced the go-karts, and challenged each other in a game of laser tag.  skylar thought he was going to finally be tall enough to drive the go-karts on his own.  he didn't quite make it, but next year...watch out...cause he'll be on your tail on the race track!

lastly, we made funny faces while eating frozen yogurt for dinner.

i also had the boys fighting over who got to mow the lawn.  can you imagine that?!!?  unfortunately, i didn't get to take advantage of that because it rained, but maybe next time. 

love my boys and sister so very much and thankful they made the six hour journey down to see me!  what i love more is that they can still enjoy aunt randa time.  they are growing up far too quickly.
