Quick Catch Up

The boys are back in school, and you would think that would mean that I've got more free time on my hands, but we've been caught in the middle of a whirlwind of visiting relatives and old friends, a wedding and back-to-school activities. It's all been fantastic happy chaos, but I can't believe that I haven't had a chance to blog in almost two weeks - I think that might be a record for me!

Hattie and Holly came over one evening last week to stay with the boys while Mitch & I attended a parent orientation meeting at Sawyer's school.

I can't believe that Holly managed to snap a self portrait that included all three kids - and they're ALL looking cute too! LOVE this picture!

Snuggled up and ready to watch The Lion King

My high school friend (and college roommate!), Courtney, just moved back to town last week, so we got together for lunch and finally got a chance to meet her three little ones. Darcie and her boys also joined us from the Bay Area, so we had a total of five boys and two twin girls...the adults were SO outnumbered ;)

Sawyer absolutely loved Courtney's twins, Isla and Paige, and was so incredibly sweet with them. He really loves babies, and he keeps asking me if I can grow one in my tummy...JUST so that he can name it "Hot Wheels" LOL

Walker & Sawyer...Darcie and I joke that these two are "bromance" soul mates. Really though, they go together like peanut butter and jelly. It's a shame that we only get the chance to see them every few months. Actually, with the schemes these two hatch up, I should probably be glad they don't get together more often ;)

It's been SUPER hot here, hence the lack of shirts in these pictures. Nevermind that they seem to feel the need to take their shirts off because it's hot and then cover themselves up with a quilt. Crazy boys!

Sawyer & Sutton discovered that they can watch You Tube videos on Mitch's cell phone. Here they're watching "Wow, Wow, Wubzy" music videos together.

Mitch & I all dressed up on the steps of the state capitol for my cousin Kelley's wedding last weekend.

Grandma and Grandpa graciously came to stay with us so that Mitch and I could enjoy the wedding weekend without worrying about trying to find a babysitter for the boys. They LOVE having Grandma and Grandpa here, and Mitch and I were grateful that we got to have a night out knowing the boys were in good hands :)
