I am really behind on all my blogging so bear with me. When we were in Idaho I was able to see some of my highschool friends. It was so fun to get together and see what everybody is doing these days. I had a really close group of friends and so we still keep in touch and I love that. I also was able to see my really good friend Katie. Her husband and Michael have been best friends for a long time. Our boys had lots of fun together.
I also celebrated my birthday in Idaho and my mom did an amazing job with the food. My dad cooked yummy hamburgers and we had lots of family over to celebrate. Michael's family was able to come and we all just had a good time. Thanks Mom for a great birthday. Levi of course had fun with all of his cousins.
Below are some pictures of Benson and Levi with their great-grandparents. I didn't get pictures with all of the great-grandparents, but we enjoyed seeing them all and they loved the boys.
Levi and Benson also loved being with their cousins, aunts, and uncles. They had so much fun together. My sister-in-law watched the boys so my mom and I could go to the Rexburg temple. It was so wonderful to be in the temple and be with my mom. I so need to go more often. My younger brother Tyler was so much help. He held Benson a lot and Benson just loved him. My sister Shelby and Levi were best friends. They played constantly and Levi always wondered where Shelby was when she was gone. He wanted to wake up Shelby every morning so they could play. He tells me often that Shelby is his "best friend."
Levi's cousin Brynlee got baptized and so we were able to see lots of family. Michael's sister came down from Boise and brought her new baby.
Levi has two cousins that are only a few months apart. One was born on Feb 12 then April 12 and Levi was supposed to come June 12, but he didn't. Here are pictures of the three of them.
Michael's sister and I were due one month apart both on the 19th. Benson came early and Natalie came late.
More pictures with cousins. Notice Levi's "scary face".
Michael's parents were great. They watched the boys and even kept Levi a couple of nights. They spoiled him and Bruce loved to tell Levi stories.
