Ohana

Last week Ang, Kya, and Lucy were able to catch a military plane out here to visit. We were so excited they could finally come. It was the first time Ang has seen Landry crawling and walking. At first he was a little confused by her, but after awhile he warmed up. In fact he was so comfortable with her that he decided to poop out of his diaper at Walmart one night (after his mom said she wouldn't need a diaper...opps). Than he proceeded with tossing his only pacifier out of the cart or somewhere during there shopping trip. Although Ang didn't figure it out until she was on her way home. These are all things that would happen to me on a normal day, so see, he is good with you!

Brody was so excited to have Lucy here to look for bugs with him. I think one morning they spent almost 2 hours outside searching for rollie pollies, millipedes, and worms. Brody was so cute, he couldn't remember how to say millipede, so I heard him outside saying, "Look a melon, I found another melon." He is really going to miss Lucy a lot.


While Ang was staying with us, we went to a mother/daughter activity at the church Sat. morning. It was a lot of fun, we made flower pens, and cute hair clips. Later that afternoon we watched the kids play on the slip-n-slide. After dinner that night we headed over to the softball fields to watch Bryan play a game. Kya was so excited to watch, he has never seen a real softball game. But he is learning about baseball for one of his scouting goals. He asked me when we got there if Uncle Bryan was a rookie, so cute! Luckily Uncle Bryan hit a homerun, this always impresses the kids....oh and me!!

We were not able to travel much while Ang was here, because I don't own a bus (rethinking this)But one of the days Bryan watched the little ones so we could go to the movies to see Oceans and go roller skating afterwards. It was a lot of fun, I was so impressed with how determined all the kids were to learn how to do it...especially Kya and Lucy. They did great. There was a couple of falls, but I think mine takes the cake. Emery ran right into me when I was standing still and I fell hard right onto my tailbone. Wow, talk about pain, I thought I was going to throw-up all night. It is still pretty sore and there is definitely a mark there, but I don't know if I damaged it more than just a bad bruise. I will give it one more week to see how I feel.


One of the things I love about when Ang visits is she loves to help with projects. This is such a daunting task sometimes around here. I am so thankful she is willing and I'm so glad that this t-shirt quilt I have been wanting to put together for a long time is done. It looks great, even after 2 broken sewing machines and a million interruptions. These are all shirts that Bryan and I have saved from high school, college etc. So many memories come to mind when I look at them. I was going to surprise Bryan with it for Father's Days, but, well let's just say it's hard to keep secrets when your projects are this big and you only have 3 days to work on it!!

We miss them so much already, next time we will have to make sure our whole family can get together!
