The road to a friend's house is never long.

I had visitors this week! :)

A very good friend was going to be in town and so another very good friend made the drive down from Seattle to be here, too!  Yay!!!

On Saturday night, Aimee, her husband Steve, and their daughter Jilly arrived.  We stayed up so late visiting!  Fun times!  But tiring. lol  We still made it to church in the morning but as soon as the kids were down for their nap that afternoon, so were we! lol  That lasted until Penny arrived with her three girls (Mayah, Malia, and Matilda), then the fun picked back up again.  We had such a good time; we gabbed, the kids played, we had good food - it was great!  Unfortunately, Aimee and Steve had to work Monday so they finally pulled themselves away shortly after 11pm.  I did not envy their drive back to Seattle after such a long night the night before and a late start that night!  But they made it safely. :)

Penny and I hung out and let the girls play on Monday.  I loved it!  And the girls continued to get along really well.  That night, we had Family Home Evening and took a nice little walk to the park.  We were really good and didn't give into temptation to stay up late again talking all night.  Instead, we made sure to get to bed at a somewhat decent hour so Penny would be rested for her long drive today.

It is so fun to have friends visit!  It's always fun to hang out with Aimee and it was especially fun to visit with Penny since it was our first time spending time together in person!  She really needs to move closer! ;)

Here are some pics from our visit:
