Karli's Visit

One of my favorite people on this planet--my amazing and lovely friend Karli--came to visit us this last week with her little cutie Kade!

She has been a dear friend since college and I wish she lived closer! We had a pool party with a bunch of girlfriends, then a girl's night out with shopping and eating, and then another pool party and bbq with the Smyths, our mutual good friends. That's the only time I had my camera ready!...

Jump time!!

The bbq was awesome! fresh, fat hamburgers with all the fixings, asiago cheese-encrusted corn on the cob, watermelon, strawberries and Allyson's "too-die for Sugar Cookies". Heavenly!


Sunday, we went to church and Jake and Kade had nearly matching outfits. They shared a sweet bond...

Kade wasn't quite feeling it right then! He wanted to wrestle.
Saying goodbye...



I love you Karli and I hope you come back soon! I miss you already!

I had so much fun, visiting everyone! Wish you all were in the same state as me!! Love you guys!

I really need to work on my posture, in pictures. Do I stand like that all the time?
