Play-date….for Us!

One of the things we did when were in Salt Lake was to bring Christian to come and play with Emma.  Of course, this was just a bonus because I really just wanted to spend time visiting with Brooke.  When we first moved to the village I was having a very difficult time with not only the size of our apartment, the location and being away from my old ward, but also with some sad things that happened in our families.  I feel so blessed that Heavenly Father saw fit to let me become friends with Brooke.  Our friendship really has helped me in the last year—she has given me motivation and validation when no one else was even aware that I needed help.  She and I also just see things in a similar light—though we’ll never agree in our taste in ties—she makes me not feel like such a weirdo which is nice.

Here are Christian and Emma playing on her twirling thing together…sharing is nice. IMG_4080IMG_4083 IMG_4085

After they played inside for a while, we kicked our husbands out of the house with the older kids and put the babies down for naps and used that time to clean.

After the guys came back with Emma and Christian they had us for lunch so that Brooke and I could actually have some time to talk.  It was lovely.

Here’s baby Ammon getting bigger.  What a cute little guy!  Thanks Brooke and Alan for the fun morning!  We really enjoyed your company.
