Our Virginia Trip Erin and me

Hi Family I am trying to learn and to keep up the news and events on our blog spot so that we can post upcoming events and share experiences. I enjoyed the recent trip Erin and I took to Virginia to be there for Elsies blessing. It was a wonderful visit and eventful as always. I think the funniest time was our Saturday night after a day of cooking all day, Jeffrey in his chef hat making magnificient mint brownies frosted pink and m&m cookies, Emily giving us directions and Erin and I chopping and stirring things together, the kitchen was a complete disaster. Emily and Jeffrey left for a much needed time alone together to attend temple night with the ward. Erin and I were happy to stay with the children. I still had the roll dough to make and Mia and Maggie were hungry and waiting for a trip to their favorite,Chic- Fil- A. I hurried. Erin put "sweatas ' as Maggie calls them on children and buckled them into car seats and into the Van. I finished the dough grabbed my purse and joined her. After I had ordered the food and we set everything up for eating (quite an ordeal with 4 little ones) I looked at my front and I was covered with big very noticable blotches of bread dough all over my dark purple shirt. I looked like the kitchen. We were up until midnight bathing the girls braiding Mia's hair, feeding babies and cleaning the kitchen. When Em and Jeff got home very late, Jeff had to go to the store for mayonaise and meat we needed for Sunday. I could not have done it without Erin. Fun Chaos.
