Back in late October to mid November (yes, I'm that far behind on my blogging) my parents and grandma came to visit. We had a blast, of coarse, and here are some pics of the highlights....
*We went on a fun triple date to the movies and dinner* (Scott & Kyle were the camera-men here)
*This is Mom with Peyton wearing a dress that she had made Sarah when Sarah was a toddler. Cute! *

*The girls loved having my parents "accessories" around*. :)

*They were so happy to get an early Christmas present!*

*Lots of needed cuddling!*

*LOVE*

*The girls love having Grandma take them to school*

*Dad would bundle up and go rock on the rocking chair outside while reading and would end up falling asleep*

*Shayla and Grandma napping*

*
Restaurants!*

*We discovered that
Kaleigh inherited a couple of Dad's traits....his ice-cream-tunnel-building and his abnormally long tongue!
LOL*

*I love this girl!!!*

*We enjoyed a gorgeous drive up the mountains*

*Dad, Mom and Nana following us up the canyon*

*Beautiful!*

*Mom, Me, Dad and Sarah ♥*

*Mom, Me, Scott, Dad, Kyle, Sarah and Nan were able to make a couple trips to the temple and it was a beautiful thing to be together there.*

*It was cute watching Mom "doll" Nan up a few times.*

*Sexy French Woman!!!* :)

*We had lots of dinners together*

*The girls had a reading-themed Super Hero day at school and they were supposed to come up with their own character and draw a costume they'd wear. Well,
Kaleigh picked the name "Wonder Reader" and asked my talented Mom to make her a cape. Grandma, of coarse, couldn't resist.
Kaleigh LOVED it!*

*Wonder Reader! (amazing job, Mom!) *

*Mom is so talented. She even made a vest, complete with a name plate that opened up to reveal a book. Amazing!*

* Dad also took the girls to school a few times.*

*Peyton and Nana have a special bond and it's adorable!*

*Peyton would get up on her "platform" and literally tell Nan story after story. I'm not quite sure who enjoyed that more. *

*Nana left after a couple weeks. It was hard to see her go again*
All in all, we had a wonderful time having them here. As most of you know now they ended up buying a house while they were here! I don't think anyone could have been more surprised than US. People would always say, "Do you think your parents will ever move to Utah?" and I would simply say, "No way!". I knew they LOVED it here, but I didn't ever think that they would leave what they had in California. It was shocking, but SO exciting. They bought a house 1 block away from us and it has been quite the adventure. I will post about that later. I guess I should have named this post, "The last VISIT from Dad, Mom and Nana". Wow. :)
