The Bazil Times...Are Busy

We've been busy over the past week or so. We went down to Rigby for some weddings and that was one busy trip. Orginally, Ty's youngest brother was going to be married last Thursday, his close cousin on Friday, and another close cousin on Saturday. Well, Ty's brother's wedding was called off and although, you might think, "oh, sad"...it was actually a relief to everyone-even his brother. But even going to weddings, luncheons, and receptions for each of Ty's cousins kept us busy - did I mention, everything is much harder with young kids :). But...it was a great trip to see so many on his side of the family. We're so glad we could make it down. And always, it's so good for us to be with Ty's immediate family and for the cousins to play together - I love that!

Here's Blyss, Hallee, and Cash feasting on Grandma's delicious raspberries - they couldn't get enough of them and they loved being Grandma's helper by picking as many raspberries as they could find out of her patch and putting them in their delighted mouths. You can also see Cash's new favorite toy that he never parted with the entire trip.

We took the kids to see Uncle Nick's new baby puppies and new little goats. Cash wouldn't leave the poor babies alone. He loved them. Vanna loved them too...but from a distance. She's that way with most animals. She squeals with delight (and with dogs she even tries to say puppy by saying "pupa") but when it comes to getting up close, she's hesitant. She would pet the puppies and goats with only one little finger - so funny/darling!

Then next week we get to do it all over again, but with my side of the family. My younger brother is getting married on the 15th and we're so excited for another trip down to see family - we'll be exhausted by the end of the month with everything else we have going on too - but hey, it's worth it!
