Wow! What a weekend. It's been a while since I last posted because I went slightly manic and decided to overhaul my house before company came for Alyssa's baptism. We painted, changed light fixtures, got new curtains and slept very little.
Scott's parents and his sister and her family came all the way from Provo for 1 day to be here. Thanks so much! And to Lindsey for driving from Mesa by herself with the kids. We appreciate all who were able to be there. What an awesome experience. Alyssa looked beautiful in her white dress and everything went well. The talks were really good, and just at her level. Scott threatened everyone with pain if they went over 3 minutes to speak, and we had everything over in about 1/2 hour. And then we had a luncheon with a 6 foot sub and was good except for the cake which was supposed to be white but turned out to be carrot. Alyssa didn't even touch it. Oh, well!
Afterwards the girls went shopping (again--I guess our prices are better than Utah's because we did that a lot) and the guys napped/watched the kids. Then we had a BBQ and celebrated Alivia's birthday. She got her own piece of cake and a bunch of clothes that she can finally wear next week after her cast comes off. We'll definitely send pics of that. I am so curious what her legs are going to look like.
Until then, thanks for everything all of you do. Hope you have a great day and we can't wait to see everyone in Utah next week!
