Friends, friends, and more friends!

Memorial weekend was SO much fun for us! It all started Saturday when we had our good friends the Hurtado's over! :)

Jared, Emily and their adorable daughter, Halle!

Halle and Kaden had fun playing!

Sunday through Monday we went on our annual camp out with the Bailey's and the Halverson's!! Last August we went to Payson Lake for (what was supposed to be) 2 nights and 3 days of fun in the sun. Well, Kaden was teething and he had a really high fever because of the teeth, so after getting 2 hours of sleep the first night and him not taking a nap at all the 2nd day, we left after the 2nd day. Not an experience I was looking forward to repeating. This year, we all have babies 6 months or younger, so the brilliant Yuki suggested we go to a hotel in Park City! Her husband, Josiah, gets to go there free since he served in Iraq, so the price was perfect. :) There was a pool that was half indoors and half outdoors that they kept at 85 degrees and the hot tub was a dwonderful 104 degrees. The hotel room had a full kitchen area, a huge living room (with a DVD player and a pullout bed), a master bedroom (TV and DVD player here also) with a master bathroom (jetted tub!), another bedroom (with TV and DVD player...think there were enough?), another bathroom, and a closet with a washer and dryer in it!! It was AWESOME! Here are some pictures....

Dinner was Papa Murphy's pizza, chips, and soda. Kai managed to get a hold of one of the bags of chips and he and Kaden and Logan all took advantage of it. Haha :)

The oh so cute Logan eating chips

The babies!! Lexi (born 12/12/08), Gaines (born 1/26/09), and Lily (born 11/20/09). So, Lily is 3 weeks and one day older than Lexi, and Lexi is 6 weeks and 3 days older than Gaines. Yet, Gaines is bigger than them all! :) He is four months old and already 27 inches long!

They were so cute together! Gaines was working it with two ladies.... :)

All 6 kids!! From top left: Kai, Logan, Kaden, Lily, Gaines, and Lexi

Monday morning-Lexi and Lily hanging out and holding hands. Girls have to stick together, right? :)

We went shopping at the outlet malls on Monday. We got there before Carter's opened (the first store we wanted to hit) so the boys took the boys to the playground area there. :) Sunday night we watched Bride Wars and Mall Cop, then stayed up talking way past our bedtimes. It was SO fun and WAY better than last year's camping trip. :D This is my kind of camping!
