My Close Family...... I LOVE EM'!

Now the Hatch Family has left the building.... :( Their little family plus Ashley left around 9ish this morning to go on their long journey back to Indiana. Even though it is hard to say goodbye, we had some very fun times while they were here. We had tons of family parties, boating every weekend, Gpa Earls encounter with "dying" ( He had a mild heart attack) A Dorius/Tyler Party, Going to the pool, Gpa Earl and Roe's Wedding, Sleepover with Joshie and Megan and The Allen Boys, Going to the Gateway and seeing movies, Finding out that Megan and Josh are having TWINS!!!, Me babysitting, Plus, doing Alyson's nails and makeup. Whenever her mommy would leave the house, she would immediately start to cry and the first idea I would say was, "Aly, do you want to do your nails?" And she ALWAYS said yes!! I loved it! They are the cutest family and the best cousins and Aunt and Uncle anyone could ask for! I feel so lucky to have an extended family that is so close to each other! Sometimes when you feel "down" you usually go to your parents but I know I can ask an older cousin or even a close aunt to uncle (preferably someone who plays "C.O.D" if you know what I mean ;) ) and I feel so blessed to have that kind of relationship with my family! So I guess even though the Hatch Family is gone, (Plus Ash :) ) We are still so close that it will feel like they never left! :)

The Hatches Have Arrived!

The Hatch Family has arrived! Amanda, Brett, Jane, Tobe, and Alyson have made it here to Utah! They came on Wednesday, the 24th , and the party began. Even though Brett had to cut his visit short with some business needed to take care of at home, we will still party without him. Sorry Brett.... Some things we are thinking about doing while having them here is boating, (A LOT) Jungle Jyms, bowling, parties, sleepovers, and swimming! So I will keep you updated on those things when we do them! :) Until then, have a great day. (That was way cheesy)
