weekly update

early monday morning gma passed.

so back on the road we go.

we were literally home 5 days before we drove another 10 hours

we hadn't even cleaned or vacuumed out the car yet.

last time i drove to utah in june, i was able to drive half way

this time, makai was awake a lot more.

eddie was being a bum and wouldn't come sit on the blanket

makai was in a stinky mood too.

he didn't enjoy the swing like usual

and he refuses to nurse in the car...too many distractions

after an hour out of the car.

back on the road we go.

there was a ton of construction...

that was fun...insert sarcasm.

emi was happy as can be.

she did awesome as usual.

she was also such a good helper giving makai toys.

the men sang a song at the funeral

one most of them didn't know :)

gma would have loved it anyways.

she loved when eddie sang.

and my uncle mark in the middle has a wonderful voice

he was with gma the days before her passing

he would sing church hymms for her, which she loved.

even though jessica and the kids were out of town

we were still able to stay at hotel quigley

which we appreciated so much!

and hopefully we kept brian company.

probably not since we left early and came home late every day.

emi enjoyed watching cable while eddie was golfing.

he headed to the store for some fruit

since that's what the kids eat. 

emi was pouting cause we wouldn't buy candy

i guess something jessica had done before with the kids

and makai...well makai was being makai

smiling to random people.

after the funeral we had a few days before we headed home.

eddie golfed each morning

after he got home, we headed to BYU

walked around the bookstore. tried to visit some old friends.

and ate at the creamery....which was so yummy!

emi was amazed and shocked at this display at the bookstore.

she said...oh...my...gosh!!

take my picture and send it to momo and poppy.

emi and makai playing with jocelyn's toys

it was a little strange they weren't there.

when we first got there emi made a funny comment

obviously she didn't mean anything nasty about it but i had to laugh

she said: we should take a picture of me in hayden's bed and you can text it to jessica

i must have a dirty mind cause i immediately thought that was dirty

but then she followed it with: that it would be so silly

then i remembered it was a 4 year old saying that.

chowing down on a jdawg.

if eddie ever quit his day job he thinks a jdawg food truck would be awesome.

ok he didn't say that, but we thought it would be a good idea

the food truck...not quitting his day job.

we did a little shopping down at city creek.

emi thought she looked like the lady on the incredibles.

such a nervous nellie.

she was afraid to get her dress wet.

yes the dress she is wearing, that goes above her knees.

such a silly girl.

i love watching her sleep.

she is so cute and not sassy.

emi has finally ventured out of the smiley face.

this is harry the helpful horse.

i love it.
