Brianna and Katelyn Come for a Visit

In July, Josh and I picked up Nana and Katie and played host for a week. It was a lovely week. We went to the library and the park, the pool, the mall, and the farm. We celebrated Katie's birthday with a giant Costco cake that she selected, we went shopping and Nana got new shoes while Katie picked out a birthday present. We went to the pool twice where Josh and I burned but the girls just got browner (Vegas skin). We naturally put sunscreen on the girls and the baby but were dumb enough to not use any ourselves. Here are some photos of our adventures in no particular order:

All ready for church on Sunday

I got to play with their hair and it was so much fun! Nana is sporting a lovely sock bun and Katie has 1" curls cascading down her back. They are both so gorgeous.

Wheeler Farm let us milk a cow. Katie was too shy to try it, but I did it, Josh did it, and Nana did it. You can actually see the stream of milk coming down!

She's a natural!

They played in the creek at one of the parks we visited.

Katie was amazing with Scarlet. She could just hold her and the baby would fall asleep. It was the sweetest thing.

Native Las Vegans will understand this: we had a freak rainstorm and the girls ran out so they could use umbrellas and splash around in the parking lot.

We found some turkeys at the farm.

Wagon ride.

Cows have a very pungent scent. The girls did not appreciate it.

They played with that horse forever.

Seriously. If they could have adopted that horse, they would have.  I finally made them leave it because I got bored waiting around.

Waaaay too much cake for two girls.

That's Nana diving.

And Katie diving with Josh overseeing.

Scarlet was just pooped.

We had amazing adventures and I wish they would come back so we could do it all over again.
