Visit from Friends!

Tara and family came to California for a visit. Even though she deserted me by moving to Utah last year they still come back for visits because Tara's family lives in the area. I'm so happy!

Tara, Dan, Bryan, Cole & Cody came over on Monday. We hung out by the pool. While the kids (and Dan) had fun swimming Tara and I caught up on everything. It was so much fun. And, they even brought lunch. Walked in with hot dogs, buns and chips. Dan barbecued while I just sat back and relaxed. Glenn & Erika both got home from work in time to see them too.
Launa was happy to see her past babysitter.
The 3 boys:
Launa helped Dan pick up the toys from the pool. A couple of years ago when Tara started watching Launa she wouldn't have anything to do with Dan. Now they're buddies. She had fun in the pool and let Dan take her to the middle.

Surprise Visit!

My good friend, Tara, moved to Utah last year. I was so surprised when she called on Thursday and said that they were in California. She, Dan and their 3 boys decided to make a trip out without telling anyone. They came by this morning for a visit. I've been so excited the last 2 days waiting to see them. Unfortunately our pool isn't heated yet but they made due with a trip to the beach after leaving us. As if that were a chore. Ha!

When Tara lived here she also babysat Launa. Erika brought Launa & Kourtnie over to visit. Launa acted shy at first until Tara picked her up and then it was like old times. Launa loves Tara.

Any of you who know me, know that I live with a camera in my hand. Did I take pictures today? NO! I was too busy visiting. This is a picture of Tara & I the day she deserted me....I mean moved. :)
