The Bryants came to visit!

Friends are a wonderful and special part of life. And friends that have been around for DECADES are even more special! Ashley and I became great friends in the 10th grade when we were 15 years old. We married 4 weeks apart and now we each have husbands who went through seminary and 4 kids. As we both have moved all over the last 17 years, we are now only 5 hours apart and in the direct line of when they drive home for the holidays. As a result, we got a 2 day visit and had so much fun! They had to let me do a family picture while they were here, but I can't decide if the one above or the one below is my favorite! :)
Here we go...all 8 kids together!! SO MUCH FUN!
The little girls were instant buddies. Kaebrie is five and Sydney is 8, but it didn't matter one bit.

Kaitlynn at 10 and Alice at 12 were inseparable!

(goofy goofy goofy girls)Collin at 12 and Aaron at 14 bonded quickly and had lots of fun playing outside and playing RISK.
They all loved the "goofy" poses!
Tiff and Lindley. At 7 and 9, they had a lot of common interests and got along really well. They liked playing Wii together.
The "cool guy" pose.
FLASHBACK ALERT: Here we are in 1994, before either of us had any kids. WOW. I realize the big hair and the big glasses, so no laughing!
Conan O'Brian, EAT YOUR HEART OUT!
The little girls were escorted down the stairs....
....then we were shown their make overs!! (We preferred them the way they were PRIOR to the makeup). :)
2 days and 2 (late) nights full of fun! Bryants, come back SOON!
