Returned with Honor & 85th Birthday Party

I thought I had better get these posted before another very busy weekend. We got to go to the airport to welcome home my nephew, Matt, who just returned from serving his mission in Japan.
I am going to miss reading his letters. They were so fun to read. He was an awesome missionary & I'm so grateful for the example he set for my children. Welcome home Elder Hurley!



Then we heading to Jared's Aunt's house for Grandmother Moody's 85th birthday party. We had so much fun! I love to be around her and all of her children. They sure know how to entertain! Grandmother is one of the most amazing ladies I have ever met. We named Eva after her and Juel is named after her husband. She was there when the twins were born and she was able to spend time with them while they were in NICU. It was a precious time and I'm so grateful she was there. We love you Grandmother!

If you can't tell my kids weren't co-operating in for this picture.



Jared's Aunt had this adorable mini grand piano. The girls couldn't get enough of it.




They made a new friend and loved swinging on this cute swing. Oh, and incase you're wondering were Juel was all this time, he made sure to stay away from the crowd and play with whatever toys he could find. Grandpa Moody even broke into his famous act "If I were a Rich Man" but Juel wouldn't even smile. He just wanted to get back to playing!
