While Chris was here, he showed us this video. I can't get enough of it! It cracks me up every time! I thought I would share it with you, so you can crack up in your seat too!

A Very Fun, And Much Too Short 10 Days
When Joe first told me that his family was going to visit for 10 days, I have to admit I was a little worried. I was just afraid it was going to be hard to keep everyone entertained...I didn't want them to get bored. Now that I'm looking back on it...10 days felt like 3, and I wish they had stayed for 20, although that probably still wouldn't have been enough.
We stayed very busy while they were here, and we had so much fun with them!
I'll try my hardest to organize all of this into one pretty little post (although there will be nothing little about it:). WARNING: LOTS and LOTS of pictures to follow :0)
They got here on the 4th of July. We had planned to go see fireworks, but they were tired, and Joe and I were perfectly content with just hanging out at home spending time with them, and trying to soak in the fact that they were actually here!
On Sunday we went to church, and It was so nice having them there with us! All three of the boys (Dad, Joe and Chris) got up to bare their testimony in fast and testimony meeting. It's something I will always remember. I sat in my seat, feeling so proud and grateful that I married into such a wonderful family, with such powerful testimonies. After church, we had the missionary's over for dinner.
Joe had to work on Monday. When he got home we had family home evening, and then went out to Mimi's Cafe for dinner. Afterwords, we drove around, showing them the area.
On Tuesday, Joe had to work a half day. When he got home, the boys went shooting, and Marky and I had fun hanging out out the house together.
(while we were there, Chris decided to make friends with the chipmunks:)
It was absolutely breath taking there. Seriously, pictures don't do it justice. It was a wonderful experience to be able to see Colorado in all it's beauty with our family there with us! It was heavenly.After a long day in the mountains, we went to dinner at P.f. Chang's
Thursday, was a busy day, but very fun! First, we all went to the Aquarium in Denver.
After the Aquarium, we dropped Joe and Marky off at Elitch Gardens, so they could spend some time together, just the two of them.
We picked them up, and headed to Claim Jumpers for dinner.
Friday we went down to the 16th street mall in Denver.
We decided to go to the movie theater at the 16th st. mall to see Transformers 2
After our movie, we walked down to the Cheese Cake Factory
Saturday, Joe and Chris went to the gym together, and we did other little random things.On Sunday, we went to church, and had Ben and Idealia over for dinner.
We decided that for Monday, their last day here, we would just relax at the house, and spend quality time with one another. We had a great family home evening together...I felt the spirit so strong in our house, and the love shared in our family was overwhelming. It was the best family home evening ever!
before we went to bed, we posed with Marky in her graduation gown.
And just like that, it was time to say goodbye :0(
As we were walking through the airport to drop them off, this movie clip from Dumb and Dumber kept playing itself in my head...I hate goodbyes.
Joe and I absolutley LOVED having them here! We are so grateful they came to visit us, and we hope they had as much fun as we did!
It went by way too fast. I feel like I got to know each one of them better, and now, they are so much more to me then just my in-laws. I love them all SO much!
We miss them, and we wish they would come back tomorrow.
Won't you please?!
(Sorry for the record long post...this is me narrowing it down:)
