Somehow, despite my best efforts, we cannot convince our friends and family to visit us during the summer. They insist on visiting when the weather is survivable. Wimps.
Starting in November, we were visited by Brad's parents, my mom, some friends (with children to play with our children!), my dad, Brad's parents again with the youngest Clawson siblings, and then some more of Brad's siblings. There are no more visits to look forward to. (Cue the sobbing.)
To any friends and family reading this, there are still two months of good weather. We have an air mattress and a crappy couch and would love to have you. I'll even make you pancakes. Amelia asks me almost every day who is coming to visit, and I would like to be able to tell her something.
In reverse chronological order, because I'm too lazy to rearrange it, here are some of the highlights. Most of the highlights were missed because I always forget to take pictures.
 |
| Hiking to the Wind Cave |
 |
| Getting some knowledge 'bout animals. |
 |
| Hanging onto Uncle Sam for dear life while riding the train. |
 |
| We take almost everyone to the Rooster Cogburn Ostrich Ranch. That also has deer, donkeys, goats, rabbits, ducks, and lorakeets. |
 |
| Visiting us is fun, but not restful. |
 |
| Lots of chances to read books when you visit. |
 |
| Back at the Ostrich Ranch with friends, this time petting sting rays. |
 |
| Christmas lights at the Mesa Temple Visitors' Center |
 |
| I'm so glad that we were able to have Thanksgiving dinner with friends! |
 |
| Did I mention that when you visit you get roped into reading books? |
 |
| And singing songs? |
