What a Trip!

It's been a whirlwind week..and I loved EVERY minute.  Took Sully to meet the Boise family this weekend.  Just me and my sweet boy! We met almost everyone!  I SO wish I could have taken the girls as well, but 1) NO WAY could I fly alone with 3 kids.  NO STINKIN' WAY.  And 2) Flights across country are way too expensive.  But it was too important to me to have Sully meet his Aunts and Smidt family, so we trekked out here for a quick (and I mean QUICK) trip.  Between moving, Shawn's vacation time and the Smidt family's upcoming Summer schedule, this was the only time we could make it work.  And now I'm sitting in the SLC airport on a 3 hour layover so I'm blogging while I can!

We did some super fun stuff on the trip.  Friday was packed (but in a good way!). Sully got to meet Nana and Pops Smidt for a few hours while they were in town.  They couldn't stay long, but it was just enough time for cuddles and kisses.

Next, my Mama treated me and my sisters to pedicures and lunch. It was soooo nice to spend time with just the girls! Nana Raine and Tawni babysat all the kids for us so that we could relax and have adult time.  It was fun to banter back and forth but also laugh a lot! Loved it!

Then, just the "Sisters" got together and went shopping and ate dinner that night.  It was awesome!  I haven't had a Sister's Only night since before I had kids!  We've only all been together a handful of times in the past few years and never without kids and/or husbands!  So it was a much needed, much anticipated night.  My sisters and I are all so goofy that we had such a blast just being silly together like old times.  We got lots of candy, went to lots of shops, had Sushi for dinner, and did a lip sync in Tiff's minivan to a Mom song as a "Thank you" to my Mom for babysitting all our kids. HA.  It was so much fun! I LOVED it!  We were laughing SOOOO hard, we could hardly film the lip sync without cracking up too much.  I seriously have such a blast with my Sisters.  I'm so lucky!

On Saturday we attended sweet and sassy Evvy's 3rd birthday party.  No boys allowed (except Sully).  The little girls danced and ate tons of sprinkles and giggled a lot. It was so adorable. Coley had it decorated SO cute! I really wished Piper and Lucy could have been there.  They would have had soooo much fun with all their girl cousins.

The rest of the weekend was down time.  And that's the best time, sometimes; relaxation and conversation.  I love my family.  I'm so lucky that I've seen BOTH sides of the family this month!

Now I get to go home and get crackin' on this move! I. Cant. Wait.

We barely had time to say "hi" and "bye" to each other. We met at a bagel place outside of the airport right after he flew in, I handed him Piper, he gave me a kiss and I was off! Busy, busy!

I always love flying above the clouds :)

On a layover, Sully facetimed with Daddy...look how HAPPY he was to see him!

Off to New Hampshire we go...The last time we will EVER have to fly allllll the way across the country :)
