A Weekend in Boise

Nick and Lachelle were in Boise for the weekend so I headed up there to hang out.

Lola LOVED Moose. This picture is evidence.

Keyton made faces.

Lachelle made fruit salad with yogurt.

I enjoyed playing with Grandpa Smith's iPod Touch.

We ate mangoes with sticky rice.

Lola kept referring to Thomas as "Daddy." He loved it.

Nick and Lola did yoga-ish.

I introduced Keyton to Twister. He was better at it than I was.

Krista's Reception

On a whim, I decided to head to Boise for the weekend to help my parents get the house ready for the new floors. Saturday was Krista's reception and it was great to reunite with friends I haven't seen in a long time. I love my Boise friends!

Krista and Jorge. It was nice to finally meet Jorge since I have been hearing about him for so many years.

Krista and Me.

Christy and Me. It was so good to see her and finally meet all of her children.

Emily and Emily. Pretty great.

Rory's husband, Cameron, was pretty much the hit of the party. He brought balloons and made all sorts of animals, swords, and hats. The kids surrounded him the rest of the night.

Chuck E Cheese and other adventures

Aidan loves it.

Natalie and Lucy loving it.

Avery feels the love too.

Taken through the windshield of the moving car at Chuck E Cheese. Aidan is obviously enjoying himself immensely.

Even Natalie found a game she liked.

Mike, Natalie, and family came to visit me at my apartment. I recommend that others do so as well. I want you all to come visit me. I will cook you food.

Sarah has been living in the British Isles for the last two years but returned home last month. It was so good to talk to her again. I'm glad she'll be in Utah.

A friend in my ward, Shalece, danced at the Freedom Festival in Provo. Even though I was lame and got there 5 minutes after her show ended, she was still nice enough to strike a pose.

No pictures on the walls yet. Soon.

Celebration

I spent Saturday with Mike, Natalie, and their family. We headed to Kaysville for their parade. We showed up a few minutes before it started but still got good seats. Avery and Aidan had fun collecting the candy thrown out into the crowd.

Lucy was very well-behaved and adorable.

That night, we went and watched the Sugar House fireworks. We found a great spot right off of I-80. The best part of the night was when Lucy said, "Emy" for the first time. She loves me.
