Good Friends

Because we all know I am a huge slacker-I am just now writing about our good friends who came to visit us in October. Ahem. We have missed living with the Skousens and as fate would have it, Geoff had to come to Arizona for an interview so we got to spend the week with them.  It happened to be a really hot week in Arizona(weird right...) so all our outdoor activities were limited.  I am so sad but we really only got one good picture of me and Alisha and it was at the swimming pool.
 Alisha and I were back row nursing buddies with a similar sense of humor. Ever since then we have been best friends.  Alisha is all sorts of Martha-e and because I need my hand held, she and I do fun projects together.  She taught me how to can food, blog, cook delicious food, take pictures, do crafty things and now she has got me(and Andrew) hooked on pinterest(shaking fist) We always have such a good time together!
 We took a little outing to papa-go park but it was 100 degrees so we didn't stay long but Henry had a blast as always.
 We tried our hand at making caramel apples
 It started out good.....


And this is what came out....don't laugh. They weren't our best work.  And they were rock hard. 
But we ate them anyway!

Alisha is an amazing photographer. As such I have stolen all of these pictures from her.  But she also offered to take me and Andrew's pictures.  Turns out, me and Andrew had some misunderstandings about the pictures and so by the time he got there it was almost dark. But, being the amazing photographer she is, she still managed to get some good pics.

 
We are so glad they came to visit and hope they come again.  It was so fun to have them around like old times-sniff sniff.

I want to come today. In fact, can I just move into your house? After a few days there, we had settled into a comfortable routine and it just felt like we lived there. So maybe we should make that permanent. We had so much fun with you!

P.S. If we're going to be besty-friendies, don't you think you should learn to spell my name and Geoff's name correctly?

P.P.S. Thanks for not ratting me out on the caramel apples, even though it was my fault they were disastrous looking.

P.P.P.S. Pinterest rocks!
