Visit from Candi

This weekend a wonderful friend that I met while we lived in Cheyenne came for a visit.  Shortly before we left Cheyenne, they moved to Utah.  It's been 6 years since we've seen one another, so a reunion was well overdue.  They were pretty easy to please.  Their daughter Chloe just wanted to go back to their hotel and swim and my kids were down with that idea.  It was a little crazy watching 7 kids at the pool, but we left with everyone.  Trey had a close call, but "Brandon Man" saved him.  I took my eyes off Trey of just a minute and it was the wrong minute.  Trey lost his grip, but Brandon saw him and pulled him up. Needless to say he is the new 'hero' of the family.  Trey became very fond of him, even before he saved his life.  I must say he won a few points in my book on Saturday.  He never once complained about hanging out with two women and 7 kids.  After the pool they were gracious enough to be entertained at the good old Rocky Mountain Raptor Refuge.  My boys were very excited to tell them all they wanted to know and more about birds.  That night Monty was able to get off work for a few hours and we had some dinner together.  We had fun talking but I'm sure the restaurant cheered when we left as Makai was a little on the crazy side.  Lets just say Makai is humbling me as a mother!!  Things my other kids didn't do...he does!  Sigh....
Brandon, Candi, Chloe and Sophie.  Our special visitors for the day. 

  Sunday Morning before they headed out I was able to get in one last short visit with them.  It was so nice to see you guys again!  Thanks for stopping by and putting up with us for the day!:)  A great memory!!

I've already said it, but I'll say it again: Thank YOU! We had such a great time. So good to see you, and meet a couple more Salanoa's that I've only known through the blog.
