Fun with family

This weekend we went to Boise for Arik's sister, Anji's birthday and to support Arik's twin sister, Gail, (bet some of you didn't know Arik had a twin) with her eye surgery. They have lots of cool toys to play with since they live in a house and actually have room for them. This picture is of Toby, Anji's husband, Sam, their boy, and Brookelyn.









Brookelyn is just a great big sister. She had so much fun pushing Kira in the swing and I think from the smiles that Kira really enjoyed it also.


For Christmas Sam got a real powerwheels truck. This was a hit with Brookelyn. It was scary watching her drive because she was turning the wheel and when going backwards actually looked backwards to make sure she didn't hit anything. Luckily she won't be on a real road for a long time. Kira wanted to ride so we put her in the back. Don't worry I made sure she didn't fall out. She really had fun.








Isn't dad and daughter so cute. Kira really loves her daddy and is really good at saying, dada. I am trying not to teach her the other word because Brookelyn has abused it, though Kira does say mama when she is screaming. Not a good start for me.

We really had a great time and are now in the final stretch before moving. We are trying to get things packed and ready to go so that we can clean as we go and still have time to spend with friends before we move. Since this week is finals we really aren't able to hang out with anybody so we are taking the time to pack so that next week we can play.

We are still looking for a house. We don't want to rush into anything so we are taking our time looking and hope that something great will pop up. We are truly going to miss Logan and all our friends. It just won't be the same, not living the college life. Since we have been married (which will be 4 years on Thursday) we have not been in college only 6 months. We have enjoyed all that comes with college life, the friends so close and the fun of it all. It will be strange having Arik work a real job and come home at night during most of the summer (unless he gets to go on a fire). It will be a new step for us.

Life is great and we hope that all are making the most of what they have right now. Time sure flies when your having fun. Enjoy every minute.
