Aunt Britt and Uncle Ben come play!

After the week in Utah for Tom's wedding, Brittany and Ben came to visit us during their Spring Break! It was nice having the help in the airport and since my boys adore them, it made it all so much more relaxing!
My boys did great on the plane...thanks to DVD players:)

Britt and Ben did pretty well on the airplane too:)

We flew in the middle of the day so Braden fell asleep right as we landed...just carrying him off the plane made me out of breath so we sat and let the boys rest in the airport before going to get our baggage!

This little boy was sure excited to see his Daddy though!

During their stay, Braden got Brittany to watch Mickey Mouse and Little Einsteins on the computer while...

Britain got Ben to play the Wii with him!

Since Ty was out of town in Roswell, NM, we decided to make a road trip down to see him for a couple of nights! We stopped at a gas station and Braden walked in, grabbed a sucker, opened it and started eating it before we could even blink....I guess he just figures that anything is free reign when he's that cute!

Ben was a trooper to sit in the back with the boys and cater to their every demand...what a great uncle!

Here's Braden in his AWESOME swimsuit at the hotel! He's definitely not a water bug like Britain, in fact he won't get in the water, but like to walk around the edge of the pool to make me nervous!

Playing in the pool....

After a good swim the boys cuddled up to watch Scooby Doo...

Brit had a blast playing in the bubbles in the hot tub...it wasn't even hot, more lukewarm...good thing for him!

Showering by the pool was a favorite.


Dad was so good to play ball with Braden.

AFter the pool, Brit and Braden got in the tub...Brit got out and we let Braden play for a minute...we won't mention EXACTLY what happened while he was playing alone, but the picture leaves little to the imagination...eww!!!!

I wish they could just watch a whole movie laying like this but...

a certain little boy can't resist the urge to wrestle...notice Brit isn't up for wrestling at all!

We had a fun time in Roswell playing in pool, visiting a little zoo, eating out and seeing all the alien stuff! I guess they are a town known for their history of UFO's so we made sure to get a picture of the kids with the alien in our hotel! Then we headed home and everyone got a good little snooze!


We stopped at the grocery store and my boys of course wanted Britt and Ben to hold their hands and I was glad to have my camera to snap this, I thought it was so cute!

When we got home there was a knock on the door and a delivery of beautiful flowers for my sister Brittany! They were from a boy in Utah asking her to prom! I was happy to play the secret agent to help it all come to pass, she was very surprised and excited!

We miss Britt and Ben so much, they were such a great help with the boys and we can't wait to see them again!!!
