back in az

i think one reason it wasn't so sad to leave ca was because most of the fam came back w/ us this time! my cousin colin came back from his mission to belize/el salvador, so everyone came out for that and to finish up w/ going thru all of granner's stuff. it was so fun to have to have my dad and the suman fam come stay w/ us for a few days.

there was lots of heavy stuff to lift, so the boys were super helpful in taking care of that. there was a lot of work to be done and i think the house is almost ready to be rented out. they started in the morn doing a garage sale, but by 11 or so they just had a FREE sign out and people were coming by the dozens! one sweet grandpa guy was putting stuff on the top of his car inside and out. it was a little crazy!


savanna fell asleep in the car, so we made a little bed for her in the closet. it worked pretty well.



sunday was colin's homecoming talk (and joe's). it was a trek up to cottonwood, but worth it and it's always so refreshing to hear young missionaries speak.


carter and ava have so much fun together

eric, me, colin, and laura

today we went to the park and then cafe rio (for the 2nd time in 2 days), so eric and laura could get there fill. we already miss you guys! have a safe drive back to ca!
