Making the rounds

You can squeeze a lot of fun into a weekend if you are willing to drive a little.

Here is Grandpa Lee meeting little Sarah Joy Simmons for the first time.


Isn't she precious!


We watched Sam eat a "lallow pop" and then borrowed Kade and took him with us on our adventure.


Our first activity included Cody Lee as he cheered on his brother Kayson.


Kayson was competing in a Karate tournament and came away with victory ribbons.


We relaxed in Jim's backyard and enjoyed loving this beauty - Miss Becca Lee


We watched these three clowns - Dallin, Josh and Cody try to fit in the same wagon and convince someone to pull them around the yard.


We had all the kids ready for bed and family prayers - but we were waiting for Grandpa to put his camera away.


The next morning we found ourselves helping Grandpa with a chore for Barbie.


Kade, Keanon, Kelsey, Alyssa and Hannah played games in one of the newly finished rooms in Jim's basement.


Sunday we stopped for a fun and fanciful visit with the Maestri family - note they are still decked out in their Sunday best.


We returned Kade to his home where he was sorely missed and royally welcomed.


And we needed one more love and look at little Miss Sarah in yet another lovely outfit- then we headed back home.
A long drive, a busy weekend, tired bodies, but smiling faces. We love our family!
