I love it when I get to hang out with my sisters. Usually that means we're in Idaho at my parents house, so it was a nice change to have them both come visit me at the same time here at our home. Maren and Sarah arrived on Friday afternoon and we took all 7 of the girls to olive garden, a long standing tradition. Although we did decide that this would be the last time. our poor waiter. Next time we'll go take-out. After the park and running through the sprinklers, we spent a few hours in the evening at the treehouse children's museum. We had a fantastic time playing with all of the exhibits, making kites, and dressing up as princesses. Sarah and her girls went home that night, but Maren and her crew stayed for the rest of the weekend. We had a great Modbe openhouse, thanks Maren for bringing down all those great clothes. Brent was superman and took all 5 of our little girls to the duck park and then had a pizza and movie party. What an awesome dad and uncle. When it was time for them to head back to Rexburg this morning Laura was so sad that she snuck into their van and buckled herself in. Brent had to drag her out so they could leave! At church I had several neighbors ask who Laura was yelling goodbye to. It reminds me so much of being with my cousins when I was little. There's nothing quite the same as good friends who happen to be related.

We had good times as little kids. I have a lot of memories of playing in the snow in the ditch or playing dress up or making garage bands.
Those were great, huh! In fact in made me want to have you two over for a dinner or something. Next time you head up to Idaho let me know so we can get together.
I have to laugh at the vision of so many girls of all ages at Olive Garden. your new little one had better get some boy cousins in there too at some point... otherwise he might feel a little out of the loop!
It was a great weekend! Thanks for allowing all of us to descend on your house. I too love watching the cousins interact.
Sounds good. Do you guys ever come to Provo?
We heard the "Sarah Song" on the radio the other day and I was telling Michael about how we would tease Sar with that song when it was so popular and how we would all play together so much as kids.
I hope Brent doesn't mind that we tried to marry you off to Derek Walker.
