sis mish finish

While my family went to Atlanta to pick up my sister Jenna from her mission, we spent the week preparing a proper welcome home at our place.

Drew worked on the banner letters while Brinley cut the yarn and used excessive amounts of tape. Why does scotch tape not stick to construction paper?!

We got some really cool window markers and adorned our entire back door with messages to my long lost sister.

Brrinley knows how to write her name, and made sure it was plain to see.

Drew is not one to be subtle. Let’s just say my sister wasn’t too thrilled about this one, but…

Once Jenna and the fam were back at our place, it was what to do that had us somewhat perplexed. Jenna had not yet been released, and wanted to stay the course until it was official. Where was a place we could all enjoy within the rules of the white bible? The mountains of course! It will be warm and sunny and be lots of fun!

Hmmm. Well it wasn’t too warm, but did go back and forth on the sunny part. Brinley made a beautiful bouquet of sandwich while eating her flowers.

Jenna wasn’t too hot to trot on eating the flowers, but Rowan seemed curious.

Drew tried to give Brinley a kiss and was cut off at the pass.

Brinley!!! Are you OK? Just kidding. Drew was chipmunk hunting. 

We saw lots of elk getting fatted up for the long summer ahead.

Brinley tried out several shoulder seats and piggy backs, but had a tough time settling on just one. There was the steady and sure Jenna…

And then there was the wild and crazy Dan. Hold on to that horse Brinley!
