We Miss You!!!

Not to much going on at our house this week, we're still trying to get the kids healthy. We actually ventured out today for preschool and another dance performance but other then that we've just been hanging out at home. Greyson is now walking around showing us his muscles and growling when he does it, it's pretty darn cute. Monday and Tuesday at our house means Dancing with the Stars is on, that also means poor Greyson gets recruited as Maddy's unwilling dance partner. She lifts him and twirls him and drops him, until he's completely had it and then he just starts swinging. He's pretty patient but it always ends the same way. Greyson furious at being used as a prop and Maddy indignant that he doesn't want to be her dance partner. With both of the monkeys sick this weekend I had told Maddy there was a possibility she wouldn't get to go to her dance performance Tuesday night. You would have thought I crushed her whole world, she was devastated. So I reminded her it was "just at the old folks home" and she looked at me with sad puppy dog eyes as if to say, I'm in pain here and you're using my own words against me. Luckily she's better and she got to go. We are really missing our family that's not here close to us, we love them and miss them so much so today the pictures are of people we are thinking of and missing.

This is Uncle Tyler with Greyson the day he was born, he's currently serving a mission in Mexico City, Mexico, he comes home in July and we can' wait to see him. It seems like he's been gone forever and Maddy is counting down the days till he's home.



This is Uncle Nutsy and Maddy scaring the camera, and he is in California for school and work. We just found out he's coming home this summer to visit and we are so excited. He's also bringing home his girlfriend and surprisingly Maddy is okay with it. I think she's just so excited to see him even if it might mean she's not his best girl anymore.



This is Skyler, he and his mommy and daddy are currently living in Helena, Montana. The kids miss their cousin dearly and are always excited to see them when they come to visit.



We love you all and can't wait to see you.

Good to hear the kids are feeling better. Hopefully they continue to get better. Having family far away is so hard. It is great that they can always come and visit. Hope you guys have a great week!
