Thanks for the Great Trip!

We just got back on Wednesday from our trip to Utah. We went out to see my sister Sarah who got home from her mission in Pennsylvania on Nov. 6th. It was so nice to have her back, and Caitlin and Abby just ate up the attention from her! We had fun visiting family and friends, and enjoying the beautiful-and unusually warm-fall weather! This will probably be the last time we will be in Utah for a while, because our baby girl is due April 3! We will be moving to Arizona in July, so I don't know when we'll be back to see the beautiful mountains and be with family! That's one thing that we really took for granted about Utah, was having such beautiful mountains all around. Thanks to everyone who let us visit and made our trip wonderful!

Abs with Uncle 'Joe'. (I put Joe in quotations because that's not what they call him! ;o)


Joseph is in this Par Kour(sp?) club at his school. It's basically doing cool tricks on any obstacle around. He had just as much fun at the park practicing as the girls had playing around!



Abs, Caitlin and their cousing Brookie. They ADORE 'Brooks'. It was so much fun to see family for a few days!

Caitlin and her cousin Delaney. Delaney insisted that she was Fern from Charlotte's Web. She had to wear the yellow dress that Fern wears to the fair at the end of the movie. She's such a doll!




SARAH COMING HOME!!!! This was when we saw Sare for the 1st time in a year and a half!!! It was so exciting...and you mix that with my pregnant hormones...I was balling like a baby!








Sare and Justin...sweet reunions!







Sarah ACTING like she was happy to be back. She loved her mission, and had a hard time coming home.



Caitlin with Aunt Gloria. It was so fun to see my mom's side of the family for a couple of days. They are such sweet people!


Last but NOT least, the beloved Great Grandpa Murphy. This is probably the ONLY time you'll see him wearing anything but a t-shirt of his great-granddaughters! He is such a hoot!



Abby and Delaney. They went downstairs by themselves, and set up a 'naptime bed' on the LoveSac. It was pretty cute!





Caitlin playing in the leaves in Grampa's backyard. Fall is so much fun for kids...those were the good ole' days!



This is what happens when we wake up for the 1st day in Utah at Grampa's house...and Grampa is at work. The girls take over the stereo!!!

Wow! Looks like a fun trip! Seriously, I know what you mean about the mountains. We miss them too. In fact, Cory keeps talking about the skiing time he's going to get in over Christmas break. By the way, you have the cutest little nieces!
