Back To Blog Land

 I have been missing in action for a few days. Coco, Baby Peanut, Kyle and Talmage came in on Thursday night and I was trying to spend as much time as possible with them. I have missed them so much.
Coco and I went shopping on Friday. I had so much fun hanging out with her. Friday night Coco, Kyle, Alan and I went to a Wedding Reception for some friends of ours children who got sealed in the Mesa Temple after 5 years of dating. We are so happy for you Kristen & Conrad Jensen. It was a beautiful reception held outside. I got to see a sweet and beautiful friend who desperately needs to update her blog (Melissa S.) and some other dear friends I haven't seen in a while.
After sleeping in till 5:30 on Saturday morning Coco, E'lyse and I headed out to Hobby Lobby. Yes my arm had to be twisted just enough to turn the key in the ignition. he he We also visited a little clothing boutique for children. Coco has been going back and forth whether or not to get Talmage a Halloween costume and she found this little darling one for him of one of his favorite characters Elmo
On Saturday night there was a Nichols Family doughnut/ hot chocolate party at Grandmas house. There was a bouncy house and a lot of people to talk to. Sad to say some I don't even know what child goes to what parent there are so many. Alan stayed home he wasn't feeling good so I took, Coco, Baby Peanut, Kyle, E'lyse, Faith and Gabby over. Dallas and his girlfriend Sara met us over there. I enjoyed talking to everyone. All of the beautiful Nieces that talked with me, brother in loves and sister in loves that I adore. There were a few I didn't get a chance to talk to like Kortnei & Josh , sorry about that. The family is so big that there really needs to be name tags so I know who is who! But had a fun time.
We got home and stayed up too late again. I ended up sleeping in big time till a little after 7. WOW! What was I on vacation? Heck no just being lazy. Coco and her sweet family left right before we had to leave for church. I hated to see them go. I especially my little buddy Talmage. He has the best hugs and his giggle just melts my heart.  

Had a good day on Sunday. Visited with Coco's family before they left. We went to church and enjoyed the talks that were given. Hubby was given a new church calling as Nursery Worker. They said his name came up and his calm nature was a sure in for the calling.
 Alan and I had a date night in our room. Had dinner and watched the Proposal again. Cute movie!
 Now it is Monday again and work is almost completed for this morning. Tonight we are having BBQ boneless country style ribs for dinner with cauliflower, beans and rolls. I have so many things I want to do this week so I better get off the computer and get to work. Have a wonderful day and stay happy!
Hugs, Bobbi Jo

That costume was absolutely made for Talmadge! I've never seen a cuter Elmo! Glad you're back in the swing of things. Isn't it wonderful to have family around? It would be so hard for me if my husband told me we needed to move away from my parents. I'm sure Coco is fully capable, but I'm certain she misses you as much as you miss her!:-)

Alan got called as a nursery worker????
It is amazing how little the nursery leader actually knows.
What class did they put him in?
Did they release a teacher?

Glad you had fun! I know what it is like to be able to hang out with family after not seeing them for awhile. I finally went to Hobby Lobby and love it!
