So when does a child get old enough to take a vacation away from mom and dad? The answer is 6! Parker is on his way home as I type this from a trip to see our good friends Ed and Linda! He left Wednesday night and is coming home today, Monday. He of course had a great time. Miniature golf, swimming and fishing in the lake, riding go carts, the water park, and what would a vacation be with out a dune buggy and mud? Needless to say the kid had a ball. Its been a little strange around here without him. Its been quiet. Something we are not at all use to. Anyway we are ready to have him home!!!!
The other person who got a vacation away from his parents is my little brother Hyrum. He came and spent two weeks with us and goes home tomorrow. I really wish he could stay longer. We've really enjoyed having him. The kids have loved him. He even volunteered to watch the kids 2 days while he was here and I had to work. Of course he did great and he got the joy of changing his first messy diaper ever. He did so good he got to change two, thanks to little miss Bailey. Since there are 11 years between us it was fun to get to know him on more of an adult level. I just don't think it's fair that the youngest also gets to be the best looking. Sure there's family resemblence but he's definately the looker of the family. He went to youth conference while he was here, and the girls of the stake will be talking about him for along time. I've already been asked why he had to go home and when he's coming back.
So I guess a vacation without mom and dad is a good thing for boys of all ages!!

yeah its true...hyrum is the best looking. And whats worse then that...he's actually a pretty cool guy. Why did he get all the good genes? I don't know! But the kids look so cute! Bailey is getting so big!
It's fun to find your blog. We didn't know you had a new baby. Congrats! She's a doll. We are doing well and miss our associations with all the great young people. Those were great years for the Singles Ward. We love being home with our growing family. We now have 14 grandkids and it's fun and challenging to keep up with them. Don't sell yourself short - you are a pretty special gal. Loves
Darn! I was hoping he was just a few years older so I could set him up with my drop dead gorgeous neice, Kiffin. That is so awesome about him changing a diaper. I never had problems changing my own kids' diapers but someone else baby can still be a bit challenging. Go little brother!
