Our whole reason for going south was to visit a sister of mine. She somehow ended up a part of my soul, a true friend... and she shares her birthday with my son!
We had such a blast with them. I'm not posting pictures of her kiddos for privacy reasons, but truth be told, pictures couldn't even do justice to how beautiful and wonderful they are.
She has a home. A home that is comfortable, filled with happiness and order, and one that is peaceful. It was truly such a blessing to be able to stay with her and do all the fun stuff we did.
Fun stuff included:
polygamist spottings
park time
library time
games
minecraft
staying up until 2am doing who knows what?? lots of giggles involved though
aquatic center magic
Aquaman & laser tag
laser gun time at home
hiking in Zions
yummmmmy foooooood
talking and more talking
Love you my Stiners. You are such an inspiration and hero to me.
(The face you make when you see upwards of 20 polygamist women at the Walmart)
This hike was one of my favorite parts! Absolutely glorious! And just right for all the kiddos. 1 mile with great views.
Such a great trip!! THANK YOU STINERS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
For EVERYTHING!!!!!!!!!

Looove!!! We had so much fun!! I forgot what it was like to do a double-take when I see polygamists...them literally being right next door and all. Haha. Their braids are amazing, though. Thanks for visiting and hope to see you all soon!! Your kids are missed terribly by my crew! <3
Also, the kids and I were talking after you left about how spending time with you helped us feel like better people. This move has been hard for them and I know their self-esteem has taken a hit with feeling rejected by their peers at church/neighborhood. If such awesome people like you all love us, then it helps remind them they are amazing, too. Thank you for that.
