Families are great blessings!

So we have had TONS of family come into town over the past week. First, Matt's sister Melanie and her family drove down here from Utah to see Matt's other sister, Alissa, at the airport. The next day Alissa came home from serving her LDS mission in Oakland, California. We have so much fun spending time with them! I have never been around when someone has come home from a mission before and it was a really cool experience. We were able to go to one of the members of the Stake Presidency's house for her releasing. That was really cool especially when she bore her tesimony in spanish! This week Matt's older brother, JD, and his family are in town for Alissa's homecoming talk that is going to be this weekend. We have been having so much fun with his family being in town.

Matt and I are really stoked to be seeing my parents and my brother and sister in DISNEYLAND next week!!! Yep! We are finally going on a vacation! We have not gone on a vacation since last August, so we are for surely due! We are driving up on Sunday night and leaving Friday afternoon. I LOVE DISNEYLAND!!!! I am really excited to go on a vacation with my parents and my siblings. It doesn't happen that often anymore, so we are feeling really blessed to have this wonderful time to have so many family members around that we hardly get to see.

For those of you that are interested, my niece Brinley, the precious girl that has Leukemia, has a blog. Well, her parents keep it up since she is two. They always have great stories to share with pictures. They really have strong testimonies and you can feel them through their posts. The address is: www.sweetbrinley.blogspot.com.

Anywho, I just wanted to share the fun that we are having right now with our families!! We truely are so blessed to have the most awesome family members ever!!!! I am so grateful that we have this opportunity to have so many of them around us. :)
