Precious Moments

We took our friends the Bentley's and the Riccio's up to Grandma and Grandpa's cottage this week. Christy and Judah rode with us and Caleb sure enjoyed having his buddy "Udah" by him.
Sweet Arianna having fun in the hammock!
5 children at one time.... that is the most little one's this Show Low house has seen, and the house is still in great shape and they all had fun. :)
We all enjoyed the cooler weather and did the usual golf cart rides, walks, playing with sticks and rocks and eating lots of food. Uncle Dutch and Aunt Jillers... if you notice Caeden is holding up a peace sign that he learned from your Korea pics and I think the even cuter part is Arianna trying to do it with her fingers too. :)

All in all it was great.... there were moments of craziness (especially during the 3 hour car drives) but lots of laughs and fun too! My FAVORITE time was Thursday night. Lisa, Christy and I got all 5 children asleep and were able to sit on the back patio cuddled up with blankets talking about life and praying for each other. It was so fun, we stayed up til 12:30. Thank you God for bringing more amazing girlfriends into my life. I feel so very blessed!!

Some of you may be wondering what the dads were doing during all of this... well, Jay, Nathan, and Dan were enjoying man time with out wives or children and played video games til the wee hours of the morning multiple nights and still managed to get up for work. God had a great idea when He created friendships! We are so happy for our Living Streams family!
