We have finally made it back to GG and Papa D's house. When people would ask me in the airport (we had a more than 3hr layover in Denver) if we were headed home, I didn't really know how to answer... Yes and NO!
We spent the last week of our vacation in Utah, and the kids had a blast with cousin Sopha (pronounced "Sofa" by Micah). Actually, the kids pretty much tortured her. I am sure she was glad to see them go... at least until she is big enough to defend herself. We spent our last night in Utah with Shu Shu and Ayi (Shane and Alisha) at their cute LITTLE apartment. Micah said we were "camping" and he had a blast pillow fighting Shu Shu. They took Micah to Build-a-Bear, and literally MADE him make a bear. It's a long story, but it is an experience and none of us will forget and he had better LOVE that dog FOREVER!! Shu Shu and Ayi also took them to a duck pond on BYU campus the morning of the BYU homecoming parade. He was the only kid that remembered bread, so all the other kids watched him enviously as he fed the ducks. We got some super cute pics of their first day on campus... because of course they will be Cougars someday (Uncle Chris, GO COUGARS).
As I said, we had quite the layover in Denver, so Micah figured out a thing or two... I snapped a picture of him walking the wrong way on a moving side walk... He was in heaven!!
We came home to a new pet... Well, Grandpa D's new pet... a baby squirrel! This little guy comes out daily to talk to Grandpa D and lets him hold him and everything. Micah loves his "rabbit". We can't convince him that it isn't a rabbit. I am sure no one will be surprised that he has been naked, outside, driving his tractor since we got back to Joplin.
Vacation was great! but we are glad to be home... well almost home. We do have an Arkansas trip planned in a few day, and then I can feel like we are finally really home. Thanks to everyone who made our trip so great! It really made time go by fast, which is important then daddy is gone. I hope before we know it he will be home, too!!
