An Eventful Weekend!

This weekend family was in town for a couple major things happening in Jessica's (my sister) family. Her husband, Thomas, was graduating from BYU with his BA in political science so commencement was on Thursday and Friday; their little girl, Sophia was being blessed this Sunday and they are moving from Provo in a week and a half to Fort Worth, TX where Thomas has a job set up. So mom, dad, and the 5 little girls came to Utah to celebrate their achievements and to wish them good luck before they left for the real world.

Wednesday the family showed up around 7:30pm so David, Jacob, and I went to see them at the hotel to have pizza and swim. (David didn't go swimming cuz he didn't have a swim suit and Jacob didn't swim because the pool had so much chlorine in it.) The little girls and I had fun splashing around and diving for toys. :)

Thursday I had to work all day but I got off early to go see the commencement exercises for Thomas's graduation. David would have come but he worked that night. So after the ceremony and pictures we went to dinner at Tucanos where David served us and we all had a good time.

After I got off of work on Friday David, Jacob, and I went to the BBQ that Jessica and Thomas were having for his graduation, Sophie's blessing, and their farewell. There was frisbee, volleyball, and babies. :) These are the only pictures I got from this weekend:













Then on Saturday we all hung out, everyone went swimming, mom and I went shopping, and David and I got to go on a double date with mom and dad where we got to know them just a little bit more. I now have a new respect for mom and dad just from hearing some of the stories they told us.

Sunday was Sophia's blessing and Thomas did a great job. She was so pretty in her ling white dress and little white bonnet. I hope I get more pictures of this weekend from Dad and Mom. It was fun and I hope we can see the family again soon!
