My Twin and Her Husband Visited Us

My sister and her husband came up and visited us. We had a blast. THe above picture looks like how Jim spent most of his time. The kids had a blast playing with him.
They woke them up nice and early in the morning. Mark and Jim and Alex and Brigham went to the cave and hiked around. (Sorry no pics) and then Lisa and Lissie and I (with Taylor being held) had girls time. It was funny to watch Lissie enjoy the conversation and try to participate. We then did makeup (pics on Lisa's camera). Lissie even painted Lisa and my nails and did some makeup. Lisa then took Lissie to the store and they got some brownies and some beautiful flowers for me. Lissie was so excited to go. Princess treatment for her!
Then of course they both held Taylor. This time Lisa brought her husband, but Lisa has flown out for the birth of all my children. How awesome is that?
Here she is with Taylor.
Then this is all of us. Brigham is there. You probably can only see his hands, above Taylor's head. He ducked down.
Then we all said goodbye. It was a quick visit, but we had a lot of fun. We tried to talk them into going camping with us, but unfortunately that was not possible for them :(. Maybe next time.
We're so glad they came we had a blast. We only wish we could see them more.

how fun?! new curtains in one of those rooms, by the way? That is REALLY cool. I didn't even realize that Lisa had been up there around each birth. I thought this was only the first or second time! What a great sister!! TWINS!

I must say that I was getting confused with the pics of your sister. It took me two times through to figure out that it wasn't you in the pics. :)
