I got to see my family!

Amy, Andrew, and the kids came to Vegas for a visit. They got in at the crack of dawn on Sunday morning. We spent the day together, BBQ'd, and all went to bed very tired! Monday, we headed to Bullhead to visit Aaron's Grandpa and the rest of the extended family.

Here in Vegas:

Amy and Andrew brought a "belated birthday" gift for Hailey from Aunt Nici and Uncle Darrell. The outfit she is wearing (below) was part of it :) So adorable! Thanks guys.

Austin's "Lip stick Ice Cream..." I promised him I would take this picture.

Auntie Tanya (Aaron's cousin) invited us to swim... I spent the first hour or two walking around and in the pool with Hailey. She loves to walk!

Hailey was upset I sat down!

Uncle Andy took Hailey into the pool... she was nervous at first.

(Awww..) Amy and Andrew

Hailey and her Uncle Art (had a great time together)

It was a short few days at Grandpa's house in Arizona. We had a great time and enjoyed all the family. Wish I'd taken pictures of every one else who was visiting... it was nice to see Amanda, Royce, Aunt Peggy and Uncle Stan. Looking forward to seeing you all again soon~

Our quick trip home...
Hailey and I had an opportunity to travel home for a short visit over Mother's Day weekend. We spent all day Thursday, May 6th traveling in the car. We caught a ride with Amy, Andrew, and the kids. It was a long day home... but worth it! Hope you enjoy the pics.

We had a "girls night" at Nici's house. We spent the evening eating, laughing, visiting, and beading some really cool fun watches.

Below is one of the watches I made:

Amy, Gram, Erin, Mom, and Nici :)

One of the best moment's of our trip... Great Grandma spending quality time with my Hailey... doing what she loves most... Reading! I posted most of the pic's because they're very special to me!

We finally made it up to Grandma and Grandpa's house... Hailey was playing with Grandpa who was pretending to sleep :)

Hailey on the airplane going home:
My baby did FANTASTIC on our flight home. She LOVED every minute of her "E" ride (what Hay calls an airplane :). We had a very nice visit with family and were sad to leave :( Hailey had so much fun and learned so much from her many Cousins, Aunt's, Uncle's, and Grandparents (including the "Great" one's)! We love you all so much and look forward to our next visit together.

Just wish our schedules could have met up with Grandpa Sorensen :( I was sad we weren't able to meet up with each other this visit. Next time, Dad, promise!
