A weekend with the Halls


We were so happy to drive to Castle Rock, CO on March 10 to visit Tyler and Juliana and see them with their 3 girls! Addy and Mckenzie were so much fun to play with, and we LOVED meeting sweet new baby Lydia. She is a doll and we love her so much already! We had a lot of fun with the Halls and just enjoyed being together. Some of the Rollenders were there, too. It was a weekend filled with good memories. It was short but so worth it!
Evalyn loved the attention from Addy. They had so much fun together. Addy was so sweet with her and kept her quite entertained. Here she is, filling Ev's bib with little balls. I'd hire Addy to babysit the kids any day!

Addy also kept McKay quite entertained. Not sure what's in their mouths right now :)
Deliberating about something.. I should have taken a picture of McKay outside Tyler and Juliana's house, playing in their backyard water feature. He was having a blast, totally barefoot with muddy feet and wet clothes. Couldn't have been a happier boy in that moment.
Sophie kept Brenan quite entertained over the weekend, too. Here they are playing slaps. Not sure how Kathy felt about that :)
Sophie teaching Brenan how to clog. He's a natural.
Uncle Tyler: "Just let me have a little bite of ear!"
Evalyn: "I'm going to pretend not to notice this time."
Uncle Tyler: "Come on! Give me a smile already!"
The consequence of asking too much from a 10 month old!
Actually, it wasn't the nibble on the ear, I'm sure it was the long drive and the smokey hotel room that pushed her over the edge. Ha, truthfully though, I love watching Tyler interact with Evalyn and McKay. He is such an awesome uncle. We can't wait to be together again!
Sweet little lovee. Lydia was so angelic and so precious and just so lovely. Almost makes me want a newborn because there is just nothing like them.
My taste-testing panel. They gave the chocolate frosting a thumbs up.

La cake for Juliana's b-day. So fun to make for her.
Another highlight of the weekend was Dillon getting himself a fiance! Ashley and Dillon are getting married on June 29 and we couldn't be more happy with his choice. We love Ashley, love weddings, and love being together so it's going to be a rockin' weekend in June!
