D and her two sweet treats....

Yay!! Andy's sister Danielle, aka D, came to visit us and she brought her two sweet girls with her! It was a super fun trip and we tried to do as much as possible in her few days here. The kids were all in heaven constantly laughing and playing together.

Of course the girls all wanted to take a bath together.

Marin would not leave the "baby" alone. She was always where Oaklee was, it was so cute. Here Marin found her laying on Porter's bed and she crawled right up and layed beside her, then of course Porter had to be in the picture too.

Andy was so great about letting D and I have some girl time. Here we are at Cheesecake Factory after we went shopping at H & M. It was so much fun and a very successful shopping trip.

On Sunday, D and I went to Kirtland, Ohio to see the church history sights there. It was way cool for her to see and we drove home through the craziest blizzard.

Monday was Porter's birthday and we got to go in and visit him while he handed out some treats to everyone. Porter and Sammie are good buds.

The girls, so cute!

Clearly from all of this, we had a wonderful visit. It was so great for D and I to spend time together, we never get the chance to sit and talk when I visit Utah, so this was a nice change. I also have to mention our nights of playing Bananagrams, those were interesting. Let me just say that it is nice to have someone on the same intellectual level as me:) Love you so much D, thanks for taking the time to come here, we love you so much!! TRUFFLE!!!!!!!!!

YEAH! You updated and posted pictures, thank you, thank you. So I have to ask, what's up with Marin and her silly face, could we have another Tessa May on our hands? And what did you eat at Cheesecake Factory? Did you do a meal or appetizers and desserts? And, Shay, you look SOOO good. I love the pic of you and Andy. I can't wait to come and hug everyone. See you in 11 days!!!
