Mom and Dad: Day 5 & 6

These were our final days together and so much fun!  Sunday we obviously went to church and it was great to have them come.  There are only about 80 people in our branch so it’s real small and everyone knows one another.  It’s wonderful!  But, also on those days we went to Dog Camp and they have some 4X4 things that they let us take out.  We mostly took some video of these because it was too rainy to bring the camera, but we had an absolute blast. 

Mom was in heaven because she could go at her own pace and just see and enjoy everything.  Dad was too for that matter.  We couldn’t get him to go any faster but it was still wonderfully fun!

Right before they left Dad wanted to document everything so he took a bunch of random pictures, so I’ll include some of those for your viewing pleasure.

So this isn’t as bad as it looks but it’s just showing how much iron we have in our water out here.  It stains everything this lovely shade of brown.  Glorious eh?

This is from our softball team.  We were the Koneheads and although our team wasn’t really great, we still thoroughly enjoyed ourselves.

Sometimes people on our tours saw we don’t look alike at all, so when they do say that, we always make this face and then they look at us all shocked and say we could be twins.  Kind of hilarious!

We were seriously just so glad that Mom and Dad were able to come and join us up here.  We had so much fun with them and they gave us a much needed boost during a sort of mid-season slump as most people call it.  It was heavenly to have them.  That’s why families are so stinking important and I don’t think most people realize what a blessing having a close family really is.  I’m surely grateful for my family, each and every one of them!
