Mission Farewell

This last weekend we went home to spend time with family before Colby leaves this week on his mission. He is the youngest in the family and there are 5 boys and 1 girl and all the boys have served missions.  How cool is that?! Pretty impressive!!! Colby had just turned 9 when we got married and since Nick and I were together for years before that, it seems that he's always been a little brother to me.  I tease that he is like Chris Farley....a big, funny teddy bear and is pretty chill and just wants to be there and laugh. He'll do a great job, but we'll miss him for sure!

Colby, Nick, Eric, Chauncey...only missing Justin and Andrea
Can you tell they're brothers?!

Not exactly sure what's going on here!

There was lots of family in town so we all ran to the park and played baseball and kickball and had lunch there.  Afterwards we ran to the creek to catch little froggies.  


Reag loves to play with all her cousins! This is Oakley

Hunter and Gage.  Hunter was stalking him....he loves having boys to play with.

Ok, seriously I love this girl.  Kristie and I have been buds forever!!!! We used to play together when we were 13 and she would visit.  It's so fun to marry into a family that I already knew.  It made it easier for sure and we have such a blast together!!!!!! Love Nick's fun family!

Chauncey and his cute girlfriend Mallory.  She was sick and still came and hung out.  She's a trooper and so good to play with us and loves all the kids.  She's a keeper!

Eric kept trying to get Hunter to do Peace, but he kept doing it in front of his face so we told him to move it to the side, but he couldn't do that and look forward still apparently.  And it was more like bear claw instead of peace. Pretty funny!

Have you ever seen a deer pee?!

Or deer twins?!

Or how about this deer in my dad's yard?!

After the park and then frogs, we went to Cathedral Gorge to play on the rocks. Isn't she cute?!
