Coree, Rachel, Nicole, and Vika came to visit us for a day. They have been living in China for the past nine months and it was great to finally spend time with them. No big plans for the day--just visiting, playing on the trampoline, eating ice cream and relaxing.

Of course everyone "ooo-ed" and "awww-ed" over little Syeira.

Beautiful Heidi (Syeira's mom and our next to youngest) enjoying a few minutes without kids hanging on her.

Rachel, the perfect babysitter. I think Heidi would hire Rachel in a minute to come and "nanny."

Nicole, Vika, and Deegan playing on the trampoline. It was a hot day (for here, anyway) so Deegan had to have to hose on. Naturally, he got control of the hose and everyone else was on guard for errant water spouts.

The day wouldn't be complete without ice cream cones.

Thanks you guys, for spending a quiet day with us!
