BFF togetherness

When the Smiths drove through town we had a coming and going party for them. 

This is backwards but when they were on the going end of their trip they stayed with us.  Our first house guests in our new house.  Yea!

 

  We had the Stringhams over too for dinner, 'smores, laughing and lovin'.

When Alicia saw our downstairs she said "this is the perfect place for a dance." 

When the kids heard this they grabbed the music and danced the whole night.

Alicia cracks me up because she danced longer and harder than the teenage girls.

I think secretly she is an eternal teenager.  She for sure looks like one.

Then Courtney and Maryn taught the EFY line dance.

It took a long time for everyone to settle down from all their dancing but bed time stories got them quiet for their slumber party.

Saturday the week before, we had the Coming party we gathered at the Stringhams for dinner.  Alicia and Jackie and I were able to break away from all the noise to go get an ice cream together and chat.

Trevor and Emmy were found in their favorite spot... reading and philosophising over good books.

Ady and Katie were creative with Duct Tape art.

 

We went back the next day, Sunday.

We sat around the table and looked at pictures and listened to Brian share stories of his recent trip to Brazil for the Temple Dedication there.

Love Love Love these 2 girls SO much!
