reno reno....

we decided to make one last trip to reno before we make the big move to north carolina... the drive up wasn't too bad but daniel isn't sleeping as much as he used to and he doesn't like to be in the back seat alone so i joined him for half the trip.

thursday night we visited our friends and family the hicks family!  we had dinner and watched the girls play... i snooped around the house to check out all of katelynd's creative stuff.... she has painted all over and made all sorts of really cute stuff for the house to decorate! i'm so jealous! can't wait to have a house i can paint and do fun stuff in!!  then we went over to mama judy's house to sleep for the night... daniel and i stayed there while chris went and played basketball with zack... like good ol times... they had fun and we crashed for the night.

the next morning we slept in, had breakfast and then headed to the mall to do some shopping and kill some time.  then we visited grandma susan and grandpa david at work.  we then headed back to judys for a while... we looked at all these fun pics she has of chris when he was younger since he lived at her house half the time... she even had pics from his baptism which was really fun to see!

that night we went over to susan's for spaghetti dinner. we sat around and talked and had a really good time.. grandma gave lots of kisses and daniel gave lots of smiles... it was really fun!

saturday morning we went over to jeff and stevie's to hang out for a bit and then we headed over to this place called jump man jump.  we met up with my cousin jentry who we hadn't seen since our wedding and she is currently living in carson city... she came with her 3 girls and we had a great time! the kids (including jeff, chris, and stevie) had fun running around and jumping and racing through the obstacle course... and punching each other with giant boxing gloves.  i sat and talked and caught up with jentry the whole time! it was perfect!!

that night we met up with catherine, scarlett, and susan and richard and had dinner.  it was fun to see little scarlett she has gotten so big and cute! i showed her round and round the garden and she kept walking over to me and putting her hand out for me to do it again.. it was so cute! 

sunday we went to church with judy where she kept introducing chris as her adopted son and me as her daughter in law... it was fun! then she fed us some really good food from boston market that was left over from a wedding she helped at the night before... yum!!  that night we went over to jeff and stevie's for a bit and then headed out to washoe valley with pizza for dinner.  we had a good time visiting and watching all the kids play.  the best was when we tried to take a pic with all the kids they all started screaming and david couldn't stop laughing... it was perfect.

monday morning we went to the pool at susan's house with jeff and catherine and their kids.  it was fun but the water was a little too cold for daniel and i so we didn't stay in long.  after the pool we spent a little more time over at jeff's house and then headed back to zack's for a little bbq... it was low key and fun to just relax and laugh with them... life with twins is pretty fascinating and i'm so impressed with everything katelynd is doing with 3 little girls... adelaide was so cute with little daniel ... wanting to hold him.

tuesday we got up and drove home.  it was a fun week and an easy drive home.  glad we made the trip... who knows when we will make it back there for a while!
