Be our guest (:

I love having a full house. Maybe it comes from growing up with 6 siblings. (: Also I just think it takes more than two people to raise a child. I figure, the more people my kids have to love them the better. My sister Mandy has been close to both my kids since they were born. It was so hard for Bianca especially to move out here because she knew it meant leaving them in Utah. Needless to say, she was jumping for joy when they came here to visit. She also has a special place in her heart for her Uncle "Bens" as she calls him. The guy is a stud and a natural daddy. Eric and him really get along well too which helps us all just be a mushily happy mixture of a family. Was that cheesy enough for you? (: So thanks to The Carters for making the day trip out here. I forget how far away we are from everyone until someone comes to visit and it takes them all day. My other sister Staci and her hub and kiddies also came out for a few days to see Mandy and Ben. Talk about a full house. I was loving it. Here are some pics from the occasion:





Mandy with the boy, he was acting silly. I really think he remembered her. I was so happy that he would let her hold him, ect. He has been so clingy to me it was super nice for me to have a break!








The happy couple, aren't they the cutest! We found a BJ's Pizzeria out here. That is Mandy's favorite place to eat. It was so yummy.














Ben the champ with my other sister's boy, Isaiah. We went for a hike at a nearby park. It ended up being more than a few miles but it was fun.














Bianca stopped the car to make funny faces for Isaiah. She always makes time for a laugh. haha. Although I don't think Isaiah found it as amusing.












Cousins.













I love this look on Wyatt's face. He was so cute with Staci's twin girls. He would go up to them and lean down so he could see their faces and say "Hi baby!" He also started running away from them because they like to crawl on him.








Sweetness to an S>














Not such a good hair day for me but my boy looks precious in this one. I made him take his plug out.













Aunt Mandy with all the babies. She was a great helper.











The boys at the barbie. They love each other. What more can I say? Probably talking about some book or movie.....











Bianca playing Nintendo with Aunt and Uncle. She is so happy. She somehow managed to sit between the two of them every time they sat down. What a little lover girl.

Thanks to Staci and Mandy for coming out. You are always welcome here any time you want to be our guests!
