Last week Bryan and Annie came down and visited.  It was so fun to see them and their cute little girls.  At first Alli wasn't sure what to think of Bryan.  She kept looking over at him like she was checking to see if he was still there.  I wish I could have gotten a picture.  Once she warmed up to him though, she was all smiles and laughter for him.  Alli also really liked Julia.  It will be so fun to see all these little kids grow up together!  The full day they were here we went up the canyon and ate lunch.  Julia enjoyed exploring the river.  Then we went to a lake and fished for part of the day and it was so fun to see Bryan with Jason, Phillip, and Ryan.  Now if only James could have been there also.  Later we went out to eat and get ice cream and we went to the park so the kids could play, but somehow all the guys started an intense game of tag.  I think all 4 of them got workout.  I didn't have the camera, but I wish I would have because they are all grown men (3 have kids) but that didn't mattter.  It was just really fun to see them "playing" together.  We were sad to see them go back home, but no trip out here is complete without a trip to Cafe Rio and I did have my camera then so here we are at Cafe Rio(Ryan is taking the pic). 
 I offered to have Julia come live with us.  She said she would, but I don't think she would have been so happy about the arrangement a few hours later.  It was so fun to see you guys and can't wait until you move back out so hopefully we can live close enough to get together often!

We had such a great time as well and I stole your picture for my blog, I hope you don't mind. Hopefully we'll be able to visit again before Alli is walking!

You will have to tell me how to get pictures, because I want to get that picture of Julia with Alli. She was so cute holding her!! That would be so fun, by then Audrey will be sitting up and maybe crawling? They will have so much fun playing together!
