friends are great

I am so blessed to have great friends.  Our friends, Brad and Dantzelle Allen, were gracious enough to let us stay in their home the whole week we were in Utah.  They have 8 children that have all moved on to homes of their own.  We are so thankful to them for letting us invite ourselves in for the week.  The kids all took turns staying at their friends homes and then sometimes they even chose to stay with me.:)  One night they had a sleep over at the Eborns in a tent in the back yard.  FUN cousin time

 
We had only planned to stay a few days but when Garrett got to church he heard about an 11 year old campout that was on Friday.  He was determined to go -- so of course I gave in, rescheduled a few appointments and we stayed the rest of the week.

We saw most of our friends at the neighborhood BBQ on the 23rd (of course I have no pics) and it seemed that if we didn't see you there, I was crazy running kids around the rest of the week and didn't see too many other people. So sorry we d idn't make the complete rounds.  We do love you and miss you ALL!  I was glad to meet a few friends at the theater and go walking (at least 1 morning:)) with my friend Darcy.  Thanks so much for all of your friendship!

(I am having so much trouble editing this post - so this is a double caption:))The above picture is Gavin and Libbie on the Allens trampoline.  He was so excited he could dunk!  This photo is where Garrett and Gavin found the Allen's stash of Legos and had a hay day.  One day they didn't even want to go play with their friends they just stayed and played all day.

Libbie was lucky enough to be a part of Fort Wort all week at the Stones house.

If you look very closely you can see 5 children in that fort.  They had a great time!

We were so glad that some of our friends could meet us at the theatre for - yep, Winnie the Pooh.  Libbie loved it.  Our friends the Millers and the Stones came. ...thanks guys!!
