Sorry it has been so long since I posted last, but life has been a little crazy around here. Crazy Good!
A little unpdate...
First, we had a great visit with Evan's dad & mom. They were able to come visit us for a week and we loved it. While they were here there was a lot of bike rides, football, baseball, and playing outside. We were able to take them to see duke gardens and I was able to go to the temple with them.

Then, We had my dad & mom visit. They were with us for two weeks.

While they were here we were able to go to Washington DC. Evan had to be there for a presentation on a case that he was published for, so we decided we would all go with him.
We packed a lot of sight seeing in, but weren't able to see everything (of course). The boys had so much fun seeing and learning new things and can't wait to go back.

Last, but not least, we went to the State fair. We all had a great time. I didn't want to over do it with too many more pictures, but I have to share this one.
Turkey Shoot...

The object of the game: There are 12 shooters, one bullet per target, and the one to shoot closest to the bulls eye wins a Turkey!
My mom convinced me to try it, so I did. And....I WON! I was so proud. I was the only girl and when they announced that I had won, you could see all the guys look at me and give me a look like "I lost to that".
Well, that is our past month in a nutshell. It was so much fun to have everyone here. Thanks to all of you for visiting and we hope you'll come again.
