Visitors From Far Far Away

From the land of Utah
Back in January, Grandma and Grandpa Lincoln came up to visit us for a late Christmas celebration.The girls got to open presents again!
(I love grandma and grandpa in the background in that one)
Camryn and Kendra were very excited about their Hex bugs!
What are Hex bugs? They are little battery operated bugs that move around like they're real. Our girls love them!
It was so wonderful for grandma and grandpa to come see us. Life has been so crazy for us, that we haven't been able to fit in a trip down there. Thanks for showing us how much we mean to you Grandma and Grandpa Lincoln.
.
Then, later in the month, we got more AWESOME visitors from Utah. Kent has been friends with Jason since high school. Now they are both all grown up and married with kids. I am so glad they have stayed in touch, because we have so much fun with their family.
Usually we go do something with them when we are down in Utah, but they wanted to come see us in Idaho. We are so happy that they did, it was a BLAST!
.
They have 2 girls, whom our girls absolutely LOVE!
Getting them together means lots of silly fun, with dancing, and make-up, and dress-up, and all sorts of other girly things.
Julie is so good, she wanted to get a work-out in on Saturday. I have a Jillian Michaels work-out DVD that Julie broke in for me. All the girls wanted to join the fun.


Later that day, we decorated sugar cookies.
I don't think you can help but notice the beautiful make-up that covered our girls faces.

Corinne globed the frosting on, then resorted to just trying to eat it out of the bag.
We played games one night, then got a babysitter and went out the next night. We showed them the happening town of Twin Falls. These two had never eaten at Johnny Carino's, ever. We took them there, then to the exciting Magic Valley Mall. It was the most fun I have had at that mall. It's all about the company.
We finished our evening with Cold Stone Ice cream.
.
Thanks so much, Jason and Julie, for making the trip up to see us. It really was our treat. We love you guys!

I just love visitors too, especially these five (soon to be six) special visitors we get from Twin every once in a while :) It looks like the girls were super spoiled by these visits, so fun! I can't wait till were closer so we can bust in on your fun! Love you all so much!
