This past weekend, we were thrilled to have Evan, Linn, and Dawna come down to visit us! Linn bottles fruit, and she is always nice enough to share the wealth with us! What a great excuse to come down and visit us Arizonans! I guess I can call us that by this point... Anyway, they brought down some tasty peaches and pears for us, and we got to hang out with them for the weekend! Unfortunately, Andy had a final on Monday, so he wasn't able to be around very much, but we were excited for any time that we could get! They got here Friday night, and we went and got a quick dinner and headed over to Addi's and Blake's and played with the boys for a bit before they went to bed. On Saturday, Evan was nice enough to help us get a timer set up for our sprinklers! I'll admit--we are not very good at remembering to turn on our sprinklers. We water in the morning, because rumor has it that a) scorpions come out at night, and b) they like standing water, so--if we forget to water in the morning it doesn't happen. We have yet to see a scorpion around our house, and I want to keep it that way (knock on wood). So, the timer on our sprinklers will be a great addition and will make our lawn look infinitely better. It's kind of in sad shape right now. I'll blame it on the ridiculously hot weather, but I know our lack of watering is also a big contributor. So thank you Evan! While the boys were working on that, us girls went shopping at Hobby Lobby and over to a little strip mall that's close and did some perusing. After that, we all went for a swim in the pool and got some takeout, then went back to Addi's and Blake's for a movie.
We had a great dinner on Sunday, and attached our baseboards with Evan's help (thanks again, Evan, for bringing the nail gun down and for your help! So excited to have those baseboards nailed back in place!). They took off on Monday, and we were sorry to see them go! It's always so nice to have people down to visit, and we really appreciate it! Love you guys! Can't wait to see you again!
