BFF Fun...

Sweet Mary and Critti have come to Utah for a visit. They will be here for a little over a week. One of the first items on our agenda was to get to Boise to see the other BFF. This is the first time that all of our babies have met each other. We called Rebecca's father and let him know we were coming. He was great at keeping this sneak attack a surprise. And she WAS so wonderfully surprised. Here is a pic from the first few minutes together. Babies and all:

And here are our beautifully tired babies:
Oliver . Mary . and Ezra


We had a ton of fun. It was cold, so we had to get creative with our indoor activities. Here is Oliver cuddling into Rebecca. They have a beautiful connection.

Beautiful Rebecca and Ezra:

Beautiful Critti and Oliver Cash:

Check out Mary and Critti. I just cannot believe how big Mary has gotten. She used to be the baby of the bunch. Now she is such a grown up. She is so great with her two little BFF's.

Okay...here is where the trip gets a little less "epic". We had an amazing time together (except for Bryce. He was laid up at sweet Budgie's house all weekend.) We headed back a little early on Saturday because Bryce was in so much pain. Little did we know that we would encounter an AWFUL blizzard along the way. We were stopped on I84 for THREE HOURS!!!!!

It went from, fun kids bouncing around the car to MELTDOWN.

Besides the meltdowns...it was so scary! The roads were awful!

Here is how I handle such things:


Good news is that we got home safely. Critti and Mary are her for another week---I am sure there will be more adventures to follow.
