A weekend that should have never ended!

It is Sunday after church and everyone is sleeping.... But I am not, my family just left and I can't stop thinking about the amazing weekend I had. My Dad "Grandpa Skinny Bones", My Mom "GRAMMY", and My Sister Tanna "TAN-NA" flew all the way from Colorado to spend the weekend with us. I have been counting down the hours, minutes, seconds till they arrived. They Finally arrived late Wednesday night- Belle was still up and my goodness was she excited when they came through the door she said, "Tanna! Grandma! Grandpa Skinny bones!!!" Belle went wild- dancing and showing them tricks. We woke Cash up and he was so out of it but he just layed his head on my mom and then would look at her and lay his head back down on her shoulder! It was so sweet!

The next day the party began... We went to Hagg Lake and we were all at awe how beautiful it was. Seriously I think it is the most beautiful lake I have ever been to. We had so much fun! Belle and my Dad were running everywhere. We were all just laughing and having so much fun! We went oh this huge look out bridge thing and out of no where Belle kneels down and says a pray... "Thank you for the Book of Mormon, for the Book of Mormon, and to go to Grandmas house, the Book of Mormon... AAAAAAMEN!" It was hialrious! My Dad and Belle were playing hide a seek and we looked over to find my Dad who was hiding behind a pole!!!! hahahahahah that didn't quite work. Then we came home and had a big thanksgiving dinner. Since I wasn't going to be Colorado this year for it we celebrated early! It was good and got me sooo excited for the hoildays.Tanna made her famour deviled eggs. My Mom made her famous cranberry sauce, Monkey craved the turkey and I ate!!! After we went swimmming and in the hot Tub!!! Oh blessed be the hot tub!

Then Friday rolled around and we went to Target get some Halloween stuff and my sweet parents totally spoiled my family. My Mom and Dad came around the corner with the coolest couch pillows... They also bought Pajamas for the kids and a cute white shirt for Belle. I was feeling awful but of course they bought it anyway. Thank you guys so much! I am in love with the pillows. That night we had a Halloween party with the Mullins Family and ours. Our neighbor Jordan came and joined as well. Belle saw him at the door and in her sweet voice said, "oh come on out Jrdan come on out!" We will work on that! At the party we did face painting, decorated cookies, ate, danced, some how a huge balloon game started. It was so fun. Belle, Tanna, Jordan, and I delivered cookies to our new neighbors and Belle freaked out when we gave the cookies to them "ohhhhh no my cookies!!" hahah oops! It was so good to have both families over.

Saturday our last day came and we went to the Tillmook Cheese Factory... Belle was a bit tired and cranky the whole time. But it was so cool seeing how the cheese was made.... I got to have Shebet (no dairy) then we headed off to Cannon Beach. HOLY WINDY!!!!! Belle kept saying "ohhh go home now go home!" Mom was getting blown across the sand, Dad's tears were rolling down his face cause of the wind, and Mom and I almost wet our pants from hard laughing so bad!!! (hahah sorry had to put that on here). Tanna actually went and touched the water! BRAVE! I was so bummed cause we literally got blown off the beach in 5 minutes! But we did eat a MO'S seafood place and had a perfect view of the beach so atleast they got to look at it (I actually tried fish thank you very much and liked it!!!). That night we were dead! We went back to the hotel and swam... then the kids went to bed and Tanna and Mom came over for a good chat and some non dairy "actually" really good hot chocolate. Dad was wiped so he went to bed! Then Sunday came... don't ask how but it came so fast! and my family left. I feel a bit sad. I feel like we didn't get enough time that I wanted. I honestly wish that they just got here. But I guess I should just be happy that we had such an amazing time! Thank you Dad, Mom, Tanna for being so fun and generous and you know what I am talking about! I am so grateful to have you guys! I miss you already! A LOT!
