Afternoon with the girls

While we were in Utah we had the rare opportunity to hang out with my favorite college roommate from BYU, Miranda. I love my friendship with Miranda because when we get together and chat, it feels like old times... except now we talk about naps, gardening, and playground equipment instead of cute guys and where the next party is.

Miranda and I only lived together at Chatsworth for a little over a year, but it was probably one of the most memorable and fun years I had at college.


We have stayed in touch since then and I consider her to be one of my best friends. She and her husband Regan even flew to NYC for my frigid cold February wedding so that she could be one of my bridesmaids.

Now she has three beautiful little girls who I absolutely love. Her oldest daughter and I will be friends for life because I think she likes sweets as much as I do. Elise and I enjoyed a great afternoon with Miranda and the girls the other day.

They loved showing Andrew around their house and taught him how to bounce on the trampoline.


Baylee and Andrew played on the teeter totter together. You can tell that Andrew is obviously not used to the Utah heat! His face was SO red after just a short time outside... and he also ran around a lot.


London loved getting to hold Baby Madeline. What gorgeous girls!


It was a lot of fun to get to know Baylee now that she is older and moving around. The last time we saw her was at her baby blessing several months ago. She and Andrew are about 7 or 8 months apart and it was cute to watch them try and "share" toys. Baylee is so smiley too! It was just darling to watch!


Andrew thought that he had died and gone to heaven when Kennedy and London took him into the basement and let him ride around on their car. The girls showed him how to move his feet to get the car to go and they were so excited when he was able to do it. I wish he had big sisters as great as both of them!


We were sad when our visit had to come to an end. Hopefully we won't have to wait too many more months until we can hang out again.

Andrew crashed when we got into the car. He was so tuckered out from all the Guth house fun.


Thanks Miranda and girls for such a fun afternoon!
