We had such a fun weekend. Our friends, Jeff and Ellie came up from AZ for General Conference and stayed with us. We LOVED having them here. We had a blast eating, playing games, chatting, watching movies, seeing sites, etc.
On Saturday, Jeff and Ellie went to the morning session and then we met them at Temple Square to walk around and see stuff with them.
Our bestie, Jenny, was also in town with her Young Women so we got to see her too (so glad I got to see you, Jenns!) I hadn't seen her in like 2 years, or Ellie in almost a year. I loved it. The three of us used to be practically connected at the hip and were roommates for a while. Good memories.
And actually, we all got married within 6 months. I love you two!
Pretty pic of the SLC temple taken by Jeff. In fact, Jeff and Ellie were like our photographers for the whole weekend and took every single picture in this post! Thanks, guys!
Ellie had a tin Sprite bottle and Lincoln loves bottles. He played with that thing for forever! Now that he is good at walking around, that's just what he wants to do all the time. He doesn't even care if he has stuff to play with when he is outside, as long as he can just walk around. So that's what he did with the Sprite bottle. He just walked around.
All of us in our jammies on Saturday night for movies, games and pizza. Love it.
On Sunday we woke up to snow! Although I hate snow, this time it was fun because J&E don't have snow in AZ so they were super excited. Utah weather is so crazy. It was 65 on Saturday, and 39 on Sunday.

We decided to put Lincoln is his cute little snow suit one more time.
He looks hurt here, but he wasn't. I think the face was more for trying to get up with a giant padded suit on, and for the snow in his face.
My cute boys playing in the snow.
Later in the day it started to snow pretty hard again. Here are Lincoln and Ellie testing it out.
On Monday we went to Bridal Veil Falls. It's so pretty there and there was a lot of water b/c of the snow on the mountains.
All of us. Jeff actually took some family pictures for us and some of Lincoln too. I will have to post those later. Thanks so much, Jeff! Some of you may be thinking that we take family pictures a lot. We do. We like it though. We like having them updated, and having a variety. But we have never really had to pay for many of them. We wouldn't be taking so many if we always had to pay a photog.
That night, Jeff and Ellie treated us to dinner at the Old Spaghetti Factory. Yum! Thanks, guys! We had a coupon for all of us to get free French sodas, which are my favorite.
Thanks, you guys for visiting us! We had such a blast and miss you!

Yipee you posted about the trip!! Thanks for not putting any of my fat pictures up!! Ha ha!! My fav part is when you said, "photog" lol. I'm glad that we could document the trip for you guys, I wished that it could have lasted longer! We had a great time as well. Hopefully there will be more buttered M & M's in the future!!
Remember: "If you had FUN you WON"
I was so happy to see you guys and so sad that it was so short. Reading this makes me so jealous of the 5 of you getting to hang out all weekend. I sure hope to see you guys again soon!
Love all the pics! I have been missing temple square so much. You look especially adorable in all of them and Devon has that same green shirt as Derick! Love Lincoln in his snow suit :)
