Johnson visit!

Our good friends from Michigan, the Johnson family, came to visit us. Their visit was postponed a few times because they had been sick so we were excited when it worked out for them to come! We didn't tell Miles they were coming so he would be surprised when his buddies Zach and Grant pulled up. As you can see, he was pretty excited!
Just eating dinner together:
We tried letting the kids sleep together (minus the two babies). It didn't work out that well, but they had fun giving it a try!
Watching some TV together:
Reading books with Angela:
We went to our zoo:



And to our favorite Ice Cream place -Ella's Deli:







Playing Pirates:
I got to take some pictures of sweet Baby Bennett:
and I had to get a picture of Angela and I, but forgot until the morning they left when I hadn't showered or gotten ready. But oh, well. Better then no picture at all! Angela and I got to go to the thrift store together on Saturday (which is our favorite thing to do) and had fun doing some shopping.
We were so excited that they wanted to come and stay with us! We really miss living by them and seeing them every day. Angela is the sweetest person in the world and makes me feel like Betty Crocker and Martha Stewart all in one :) If you know Angela I am sure she makes you feel the same way. In fact after they left Brian said, "I don't feel like I need to give you any compliments for the next year or so since Angela has been giving you so many!" Haha!! So true. And Timmy and their three cute boys are so fun to have around. My girls think Timmy is the expert on anything gardening related (he's a soil scientist phD student) and Miles thinks Timmy knows how to fix anything in our house that is broken (he is Tim the tool man Johnson to us). Zach and Grant and Miles are the three Musketeers and chubby Bennett was so adorable. Thanks for coming Johnson family. Please come again!
