Reunited with my little dudes...

Two weeks ago, I got to go visit my family in Utah. I have TWO freaking adorable nephews so I was pretty dang excited! My newest little dude/nephew Gavin...

Simply adorable right!?! If you do not say yes, you'll probably get beat up!

This is my newly 8 year-old nephew, Ike...

Total stud, I know!

I simply could NOT get enough of these little guys. I smooched their little faces off and didn't let them out of my sight much...

Ike and Gav are the best of friends and I'm pretty much in heaven seeing them together. They make me smile and laugh my butt off too!

Ike does the most hilarious 'routine' with Gavin where he makes him a transformer. Honestly, Gavin could care less and just lets Ike do whatever the heck he wants with him, and we were HIGHLY entertained...

I pretty much hogged the little guys the whole time I was there. But I'm there favorite aunt and they miss me so it's perfectly ok!

I also got to see some of my great friends and family over a nice cold dish of ice cream smothered in the best hot fudge on the the planet.

Look how many friends I have??? I feel special.

Such good looking people, right!?!

I also got to spend some time with my sister (who was always taking pictures too so she's not in many of them) and my Bad A brother-in-law, who's such a great daddy and uncle to our boys...

I did sneak in a shot of my baby sister and I...

I REFUSE to post the highly inappropriate picture Ike and my step-dad Owl took on my camera. Those BUMS, ew!

Speaking of Ew! This is what I woke up to my first morning in Utah...

Yep, it's pretty, for like 5 minutes!

I CANNOT POST WITHOUT MENTIONING THAT IT WAS

IKE'S BIRTHDAY PARTY!!

Ok, he had two  parties in a day, because that's pretty much how our family does things...BIGLY...

The kiddos party...

See this AWESOME cake Ike and I made. He wanted A LOT of stuff on a tiny cake...

I know we're amazing huh!?!

The kids party was a humungo success!

I also got to see many of our family and friends at Ike's OTHER party...

My cute grandparents...

My handsome uncle Darrell

Gav's other grammy...

My sweet friend Meg...

The boys and I did LOTS of other fun stuff like exercise...



Eat some delicious feet...

Learn to roll over!!!



Chill on the Luv Sac...

Open a GATRILLION presents...

Smile a WHOLE lot...

I also got to meet new people, like my bestest cousin Tiffany's newest little angel, Mya, who was adopted just before Gavin was born...

Gav and Mya were not instant friend, but we'll keep working on it....

It was the best weekend imaginable! I loved every smile, every laugh, every minute, every giggle...
