Stephen surprised me with a trip to Washington D.C./Virgina to visit my brother and his family and to go to a Time out for Women conference with some ladies from my sister-in-law's area. While the girls were at the conference, the boys got to be mister moms. It was a very fun visit! Thanks Jen and Taylor for hosting me!!

 |
| More TOFW. Brenda is Jen's friend and shared our hotel room with us. She is a hoot! |

Nolan and Colton are growing up! I wish we lived closer so they could play with Harrison often. And Creighton warmed up to me on this trip. He was giving me lots of kisses and didn't want me to go!

| Stephen held down the fort at home for a few days solo. Let's see how he fared. |

 |
| In between these smiling pictures, there may or may not have been several moments filled with drama, threats, tears, bribes, pizza, sugar, more pizza, more drama, and some timely assistance from his extended family! |
