Karren's came for a visit

So the day after we returned from Utah, my family came for a visit. Here's what we did:

1. Nauvoo. Chris had never been there and it had been 8 years since my family had been there when Kylee got baptized. The temple was absolutly amazing. I learned that oxen won't move no matter what unless comanded and that me and my sisters and mom all eat chips the same way.

2. Grant's Farm: we fed the goats milk with bottles. Jaxton almost got trampled by several of the hungry little boogers. My dad was mad that he didn't get to try the free Budwiser products at the end.

3. The City Museum. This is a place unlike any other and it is impossible to describe. It is an adult playground/artsy/crazy place that is entirely made out of recycled materials. You crawl through all sorts of slinkies and caves and go on slides.

4. The Science Museum. The dinosaurs were the big hit here, well until they almost made Jaxton cry....

5. The Magic House (I had to miss this one due to school, but I think is was everyone's favorite place)

6. The Zoo. It was super hot out, I splurged on dippin dots, that's the highlight of the trip.

7. Nordstoms. My mom wouldn't have come otherwise!!!!

8. The Arch, fireworks and all.

Jaxton fell in love with Chris and it made me soooo jealous. Chris would do something totally stupid and Jaxton would just laugh and laugh and then I would do it and he would look at me like I was a complete idiot. Joselyn was so sweet and made me a birthday cake and brought it all the way from Utah and kept it hidden in her suitcase. Kylee was mistaken for me several times, apparently 7 years haven't been too rough on me! The week went by way too fast and now our house is very quite again!
