Love the cousins!

My last blog was a downer, I guess, I didn't mean for it to be, I was just having an epifany that I am not ever going to be the best at everything, but I can still try! I was wanting to get a new post up sooner, but...I seriously have had an incredibly crazy two weeks. So I am happy to say...We got to go home to Utah for Elijah's baptism. It was such a great excuse to get us down there and while we were there we were so grateful to go to the temple. It was a much needed filler of our reservoir that was getting depleted. The kids had such a great time with there cousins. Definately the thing we miss most about living so far away is of course, FAMILY. Osten thought that Emma was a great toy! He was so cute with her! You could see that he just wanted to Hug her and Squeeze her and pick her up, but he tried to control himself. They were so cute together. They are seven months apart.

Emma loved to "hold" Cale. Like she is any bigger than he is, but she thought it was so funny to "hold" him and she just giggled.

Hannah and Mara had a great time playing together! I love it when they figure out that they can entertain each other. Mara loved being the older one and instigating the "let's play house". There was a hay-day going on in the basement!

Max, Rex, Caleb, Gabe and Sophie.

Sam, Kyle and Noah all hanging out in Kyle's bedroom. This was the first time that they were together where the "older" kids hung out by themselves...They are getting way too old to play with the "little ones"

We love cousins and totally look forward to hanging out with them whenever possible.
