Okay I had the greatest weekend ever and I took my camera with me. When I got to Chandler I even took my camera out of the suitcase and put it in the front seat of the car. I did not get one picture! I regret not getting any pictures. Now I have to rely completely on a good friend to get some pictures.I was blessed enough to have a safe trip and see amazing family and friends. I felt I went from one party to the next. I didn't want to sleep I wanted to visit everyone. I was able to meet with my sister in laws at Mimi's cafe for breakfast and had the BEST cream cheese french toast it was so yummy. If you haven't gone there and had it you should! We laughed and cried (sorry about that)! We exchanged our ornaments.
I felt like a teenager again we had a sleepover at Stacey's home. She is an amazing host. Food again was amazing. I came home 5lbs heavier. We had a photo session that lasted a couple of hours because we couldn't get THE right picture where everyone (mostly me) looks good. I am a hopeless cause when it comes to pictures, I am not photogenic at all.
I went to breakfast again with Becky and Brenda because they were not able to make the ward party and that was great to visit with them. I learned I have to start watching the Office on Thursday nights. I was late to the ward party but I did show. I learned lots of fun and exciting things, let's just say I am glad I am not drinking Chandler water anymore! I heard some talk of a get away weekend to St.George to go to a certain store... You girls know who you are you better stay here at my house or I will be really mad at you forever and you DON"T want to be on my bad list!
I had the most amazing fun trip ever, but it was absolutely priceless to be at home when my kids came home from church and my handsome husband and beautiful children ran into my arms and showered me with lots and lots of kisses and hugs! There is no place like home.
I tried on my own this year to take pictures for our Christmas cards. In every picture there is at least one child with eyes close or a cheesy smile. Mabey no Christmas cards this year. It might have to be new year or Valentines. If I were to do a picture which one would you choose?

Sorry I missed you too! I gave Abby a hug and helped her roast a marshmallow, but never saw you. Glad you had such a great visit. The pictures are all great! I think the "real life" pictures are great. They reflect true personalities. Next time you're in town I'd love to have breakfast.
I like the last picture the best. I can't believe you came into town and didn't call your favorite neices though!!! Glad you had fun, we will see you in march for Brittany's wedding.
It was so fun to see you! I also learned that there are no secrets in the Coop.
I love the pictures. Your kids are so photogenic!
