Trip to Great Grandma's...A Play...and Blessing Day...Day Six

Thursday was our last day there....we headed out EARLY Friday morning. We were sad that it was almost over, but we did have a fun and busy day. We did A LOT of driving today! We started out heading out to Brian's Grandma's house for lunch. Brian's mom lent us her van so Brian, Brad, Dana, Kylie, Alan, and I could all go together. So THANK YOU! :) It was about an hour and 1/2 there. It was great to see and spend time with fabulous Karen and Grandma! They had an amazing feast there for us. We chowed down and stuffed our faces. Then we found out that was JUST appetizers! So then they brought out our "lunch" food. It was all so yummy!

Then from there, all of us headed out (including Grandma and Karen) to go to Brian's sisters town (about 2ish hours away) to see Kenny and Diggy in a play. It was SO CUTE! They did SUCH a great job and we were SO GLAD to get to be there for it! Kylie LOVED it. She just could not take her eyes off the stage and just clapped for them the whole time.

Then we headed back to the Smith house. Amy had AMAZING food for us there as well. DARLING Cienna was blessed at their house as well. It was an amazing night. We were so happy we got to be there for both blessings, and feel the spirit so strongly in both homes. It was SO GREAT to have Kylie spend time with the cousins and get to know them. It was so great to get to hang with all the family and be together. It was SUCH an amazing trip and I hope to come back again soon! LOVE YOU ALL!!!!


Kylie had so much fun playing with all her cousins. This was the first time meeting Allison, at the bottom right hand corner, and we were SO HAPPY to finally get some time with her!

How cute are they! Kylie's cousins are SO CUTE with her. Kirsten took quite a love over Kylie. She would just pick her up and carry her around (there isn't much difference in height there), and just always wanted her to play with her. It was PRECIOUS!

Kylie hanging with Cienna....the girl we were all gathered at their house for! :) She is so precious!


I LOVE LOVE LOVE this picture. How precious is this?! Kylie with her Great Grandma. I think it's too cute. :)

Kylie with Grandpa and Grandma Van Camp. She keeps asking to see pictures of them too. She misses you guys!

The darling Smith family! How cute are all these kids (and their parents?!)?! :) We LOVE you guys!

We took a big group picture this night and I can't believe I don't have any pics of the boys dressed up for their play! I will get some from Amy and post those later!

Hope you enjoyed this trip! We had a great one! :) Oh....I'm not posting about Day Seven because that day stunk! We were up at 4am, Brian's mom took us to the airport at 4:30am and then we got home just in time for an afternoon nap. I was catching up on that day for a few days! :) But THANK YOU EVERYONE for an AMAZING trip and all you did for us! We are SO APPRECIATIVE and had SUCH a good time! Come visit us and we'll be out there soon!!!!

What a fun and busy trip! It looks like you guys had so much fun! The Jelly Belly factory looks like a fun place, and I agree with Kristy, Brian and his brother look sooo much alike! :) I'm glad your back though! :)
