We had a great holiday weekend spending time with ALL of Rex's family in Sweet Home. Rex has a great family. I love them all. He has the best siblings that are all really fun, easy to talk to, down to earth and have great families. His parents are amazing. I LOVE them too! They always make us feel right at home and they would do ANYTHING for any of their kids..... I have seen it and they are so loving. I am truly blessed to be part of this family. So, here is what we did.....

Well, since so many people were visiting we were lucky enough to be put up in a hotel for the night. The girls loved it! We let them just on the bed as much as they wanted and then the slept like rocks..... :)

Aunt Shana had the great idea of doing all the girls nails in 4th of July colors. So, Annie wanted flags, so I painted flags and she loved them! Love fun traditions like this!
We had a blast and I am so grateful for my life and the freedom that we enjoy!

Looks like you had a great time. I love your patriotic sunglasses too.
All the pictures are so cute! And the one of you and Olivia, your face looks so thin. Yeesh, I hope I can bounce back the way you have. You look awesome. I am glad that you had such a good time!
