A Fun Visit!

August 5th, 2010

My best friend Daisha flew in on Sunday night for a four day visit! We had a lot of fun together, just like we always do. Daisha and her mom gave us a wonderful housewarming gift – a Magic Bullet mixer! My parents have one and I have wanted one for a long time. We made so many things this week – smoothies, iced mochas, whipped cream, guacamole, salsa, scrambled eggs and even cheesecake! It is such a wonderful kitchen tool, and I am so thankful to Cheryl and Daisha for the gift!

We took tons of pictures this week and had a lot of fun! We took morning walks in our PJ’s, we went shopping at the dollar store where Amelia picked out a special balloon, we went to the Splash Pad, we laughed as we bounced on Daisha’s air mattress, we went to the Farmer’s Market and we even visited a gourmet chocolate shop! Sadly, we don’t have any pictures of me and Daisha together, and hardly any  pictures of Daisha at all. I am including the 2nd to the last picture just to prove that she was really here! Amelia is just such a fun person to photograph that we kind of forgot to take pictures of anything else!

I am so glad that Daisha was able to come to visit! I always love spending time with her, and I am so happy that she made the trip up here. I look forward to the next time I see her!

    The pictures of the splashpad are absolutely amazing! Great job!!!!

    I am so glad Daisha was able to come up for a visit! I know living away from your family, especially with a little tike, is not easy. Even when you have amazing family surrounding you, there’s still something about your own mom and dad that nothing will ever replace. Guess that’s something we as mommies can take comfort in knowing about our little ones as they grow and become more independant and follow where the Holy Spirit leads them. I bet your heart was so refreshed while Daisha was there! Kinda jealous ;)

    On another note, where did you guys move to? We’re planning our next trip home currently, and I want to make sure we see you guys at least once! I need some Amanda and Amelia time! Oh…and of course my brother time too…:) Basically I just need to see my extended family! So text me when you have time and fill me in!

    Love you all!
