Friends

We’ve had some fun times with friends the past week or two. 

Pushing Jayda on the swing Bouncing on a raft with DanielleMore playing on the raft with Camden . What I couldn’t capture with my camera was when Liam would grab the raft and start running and Camden would try to catch him.  They kept going with that game for quite awhile and then Camden grabbed it and started running so Liam could chase him.  Oh to be able to enjoy a good game of chase again.  :) 

We got to go play with our friend Baylie and bonus for me I got to talk with Baylie’s Mom, Kristin.  They had tons of fun at Baylie’s grandma’s house.  I want her for a grandma!  ;)  They enjoyed some snow cones.

climbed the jungle gym then had to call Mommy to get him down.Giving each other “love” on the chair—or maybe they were just fighting…

   Some friends of ours from when we lived in Wymount were here from Virginia visiting family.  Luckily for us they had time to meet us at the park and catch up a little bit.  Liam and Joseph on the slide.

 Emily and Maddie—they are old enough they were both feeling shy and awkward and it wasn’t until we were pretty much ready to go that they seemed to warm up to one another.   Merrilee and me—we had to have  a picture!  I would love it if they were able to move closer so we could see them more now that her husband it finished with his residency. 

While Jason was at Scout camp last week the rest of us went bowling and Em brought her friend Teagan.  They had  a blast bowling and chatting. Liam held his own nicely thanks to bumpers and even got a strike with that ramp you see in this picture.  This was his reaction no matter how many pins he got down.  Bowling goes well with the destructive nature of an almost three year old.  Bonus:  Mom doesn’t have to clean up any mess! He got bored and was practicing jumping over and over.  Look how happy it makes him!  After bowling we headed to the creamer to get lunch and then the girls wanted to walk on the “twirly bridge” by BYU that goes over the road.  While they were gone Liam wanted to check out this fountain in front of the ASB.  After that we went home and Teagan used her awesome skills to help Em. rearrange her room.  I think they had a great time. 

We are looking forward to lots more fun with friends this summer!
