Yay! We were so excited to have Emily, Josh, Micah and Isaac come visit us this past weekend! We had such a good time!
Friday afternoon they arrived around 1. We walked to the bus stop to pick up Caitlin! As soon as Caitlin got off the bus... she saw Micah and was so surprised! I told her two weeks ago that they were coming to visit... but decided to make it a surprise by not reminding her! it was fun to see her face light up...
Friday night we had a special treat, a sweet couple in the ward, (SVU friends might remember Jan and Toby Anderson) offered free baby sitting to us and other couples in the ward, so we could go out and celibrate V-Day with out the little ones... What a fun surprise! Justin got us a place in line at Plaza Azteca, a new Mexican/Latin restaurant in Richmond!! (Someone told us it was like Cafe Rio... so of course we had to check it out.) Although, very good... Cafe Rio still holds to be unique, and our fav! Us on our date...
Chips and Salsa... and some yummy white salsa? forgot the name? Nice to enjoy a dinner out in a fun new environment! We collected the kids and put them to bed and watched "Prince of Persia!" (yea, Prince Dustan!!)
Saturday was full of fun! Isaac and Brinley coloring
Wii Drawing...
......and one of the kids stole my camera...
to the park...
Emily and I were on a bit of a secret mission to woooo our hubbies. (SO SECRET that we FORGOT to tell them we were 'eating dinner after we put the kids down' oops. so around 7 our hungry men sorta look at us like... feed us please. haha. funny. have a snack we said... it's worth the wait!
Saturday afternoon while the kiddo's played and napped we went to the store and then came back to our kitchen and cooked up some good eats that turned into a romantic dinner and of course, dessert.. We made homemade chocolate cups for the worlds BEST Mousse.
For dinner we made, salmon, A small tribe of asparagus, and salad
Martinelli's Sparking Cider moment...

IKEA rocked the house, not only did we get an awesome price on our bed frame and side tables... BUT they also paid for lunch! LOVE. IT.
happiness is having a place to rest your head for the night... ("like a hollow tree, or a house full of dwarfs; i hear they are very hospitable!")
