We were lucky enough to have Destenee, Thomas and Isabel for four days while Adam and Kim were in San Diego. They jumped on the trampoline, played board games and played with playdough. The Barbies got played with again! Friday I went to school to have lunch with Destenee. I watched her jump double dutch at recess. I took the kids to see Despicable Me. It was a movie that Isabel was wanting to see. Saturday they went with us to a service project. They worked hard and then we went for treats. On the way home we stopped by a yard sale and they each got something. For Adam's birthday dad fixed up his red sports car. It needed a few things done to it so it would pass emission inspection.

We enjoyed having a house full of kids again. They were so good. Such a joy to have. After scriptures and prayers one night Destenee started asking questions about her dad when he was little. Then, it hit me. When we moved into this house, Adam was Destenee's age and Garin was Isabel's age.
