For 5 days~































My sister, her husband, and their eldest son went on trek for 5 days and she needed a babysitter for those 5 days. That is where I insert myself. I was so blessed to have the opportunity to watch her children. I don't know if they had fun but I know I sure had fun with them! I felt so much closer to them and my love for them grew even more!! My sister and her husband have done such an amazing job in parenting their kids. David was the one who was so polite and was always willing to help me out. Nathan was my little chief...he is so good at cooking, he helped me bake almost every dinner. Kate...well she was just busy being a diva the whole time. I was so impressed with each of them especially their knowledge they have in the gospel. Every night for scripture study they were able to answer hard questions I asked them. They knew so much about the scriptures and they all were interested in learning more.

I am blessed beyond any words that I could muster in my brain to express how lucky I have been to be given such a wonderful sister! a lot of people walk in and out of my life but she is one that I know will always be there. Kate asked me if her mom was my bestest friend in the whole world and I said, "Well first it is God, then Tay, and then your mom:)" she looked at me in disappointment and said, "what about Jesus?"....(yeah Crystal what about Jesus...why do kids always have to throw a fast one??)



The only thing that was sad about this trip was that I was away from Tay for 5 days! That was the longest we have been apart. But we survived with Skype every morning and night:)


Kate really wanted to play dress up and then we turned our dress up session into a molding show! I obviously didn't have any dress up clothes so Kate picked out some clothes she wanted me to wear of hers that were from her dance recitals. I looked so ridiculous but we had a lot of fun. Kate did the best poses ha.






























kate and the boys watched my wedding video






EVERYDAY sometimes even 3 times. It was so cute kate would always rewind the part where Tay was a baby, she thought he was so cute and so chubby! ha they also counted how many times we kissed on our wedding day ha. Kate has it all planned that she is going to where my wedding dress since she wore the same blessing dress as I did. "It will be so perfect Crystal!"
Nathan and I baking yummy whole wheat pancakes!




















It was so hot so we decided to go to Walmart and buy a slippin slide to cool off..we were all entertained for about 3 hrs everyday with this rubber thing.



















I had an awesome idea to take the kids on a 5 mile bike ride in the middle of the day when it was 90 degrees. Right before the bike ride we worked out for an hour and danced until we dropped. So the kids were completely exhausted by the time we got back and I was to (besides Kate she mentioned she was in heaven and feels sooo relaxed).
Afterwards we enjoyed a picnic at the park.
