I decided that it has been long enough since my last blog. Tonight Erin and Scott left for home. They came down for conference and so Scott could take a trip to the Grand Canyon. Erin and I had a great time and I will miss them terribly. We had many a trip to Cafe Rio for those of you who will be jealous. I have to say that I get sick of it by the time family leaves and I don't really eat it again until they come back. It was fun to have Erin's kids here without other cousins. I feel like I got to know them a little better. Nathan and Gracie played surprisingly well. The kids discovered scooters which Scott quickly went out and bought them their own. Matthew is a funny little kid. Erin and I took him to Walmart with us one day and he walked by an isle and saw some key chains. For those of you who don't know he is obsessed with keys. He calls the key chains hookers. He picked one out that Erin volunteered to buy for him and then as we were walking down another isle decided he wanted another one. So I immidiately pipped up, trying to distract him, and told him that Uncle Brad had a lot of hookers at his work and that he would give him one. I soon realized what I had said and Erin and I burst out laughing. We had a great time I am sad it is over but I am looking forward to my mom and dad's visit in November.

We are all doing fine here we are looking forward to a busy October. October is China month so we don't see Brad a whole lot. He was lucky enough to be here for our ward Father and sons camp out. He was excited to take Nathan. This was their first camp out together. It will be a busy month but we will perservere. Love you all. Until next time.
