Reunited...


and it felt SO good :). After our fun weekend with the Smith family, we were able to hang around Utah for a couple extra days to visit some more friends and family, starting with Chuck's younger sister Amanda and her husband Steve.


Cute Amanda! It was fun to stop by and see their new digs for a while (before my kids' meltdowns indicated it was time to go!).

Uncle Steve! I had given Clyde the camera to amuse him for a bit and he helpfully took these few pictures since I forgot to take any while we were there.

Silly Will reading the new Thomas book Grandpa Izatt hooked him up with on our stop in Elko earlier in the weekend.

We then made our way to Sam and Terri's house to play for a couple of days - thanks again for the delicious food and most excellent hospitality guys!!
We were introduced to Chick-fil-A (which I can now pronounce correctly!).

The food definitely took a backseat to just watching Bailey. She is sooooo cute!!

Will had a good time!

Uncle Sam made sure that the boys got their traditional rides on his scooter - here's Clyde's turn.

There was also quite a bit of Nintendo played as new generations were introduced to the magic of old-school gaming systems.

Bailey seemed like a natural :).

Sam had big plans for a fun hike while we were there, but unfortunately it kept getting rained out, so we settled for a bit of a hike around their neighborhood.

Bailey had a pretty sweet set-up for our adventure!

As did Will. Chuck found that stick for him, and he totally used it was a 'walking' stick from the stroller - cute boy!

Unky Quinn helping Clyde soar to new heights :).

Goofy boys!

The day we left, we were sooo excited to be able to visit the Littlewoods.
McKenzie and Clyde! Notice how Kenzie adorably smiles when she sees the camera and then look at my kid, who apparently does not enunciate 'cheeeese' correctly if that's the shape his mouth is making :).

They were so happy to see each other and play for a couple of hours.

Paislee has grown up SO much since we saw her last, what a doll!

Chuck and Paislee.

We decided spur-of-the-moment to see if we could drop by and visit McKay at work; it was super fun to see his job site and visit for a quick minute.

Lynndi, Kenzie, Clyde, and me! It was so hard to say good-bye to Lynndi again, but definitely worth it to be able to visit.

Aaaand thanks to Chuck's quick trigger finger, we have this seriously adorable picture of Clyde and McKenzie saying good-bye. We love you Littlewoods, can't wait to see you again!

As always, there wasn't enough time to see everyone we love (or spend enough time with the people we did see!) but I'm sure we'll be back sometime soon. Miss y'all already!

Haha Chick-fil-a pronouncing. I imagine it to go somewhat like plural version of Asics. Lol. Love that last picture of the two cuties!
