Grandma Pfeil's and Aunt Rebecca's Visit!

We have had the best ten days. Last Tuesday (aug.17) Grandma Pfeil and Aunt Rebecca (Michael's mom and sister) came to visit! We were so excited because lets just say it had been way too long since we had seen them. Noelle warmed up to them right away and loved being around them. Luckily we had enough room for them to both stay with us and we're SO glad they did. We had so much fun. Here are some of the things that we did:

~Played, played and played some more
~Had a barbecue at Michael's aunt Linda's house with lots of relatives
~Went shopping a lot
~Went out to eat
~Played on the playground
~ Me and Rebecca going to the midnight release of Mockingjay with my sisters
~Took Rebecca to Provo, to move into the dorms for her first year at BYU
~Had a barbecue at the Fullmer's
We just had so much fun!!

Wednesday we dropped Rebecca off at BYU and yesterday we dropped Grandma off at the airport. Both times i got a little teary eyed. Michael was so happy to see his family and it was really good for him to have them here. It was really good for all of us actually. We're happy cause we'll get to see Rebecca pretty much whenever we want :). Thank you so much for coming and spending your time with us. Love you both so much!

My first attempt at making a pretty cupcake. I think I did well. I made these for the barbecue

Our silly girl

Here are just a few pictures of our silly Noelle. She really makes my days so great and full of new and exciting experiences. I love being her mom!

One of those crazy nights. This is the "I'm too cool for clothes" picture

The ducks really just wait for people to come. There are a ton of them and they often get a little possessive about the bread

My sisters doing the "human rubber-band." I thought some of you might like to see this :) and it's pretty entertaining.
