Utah! (Part 6)...Aunt Candy Time!

One of the things we knew we simply had to do while in Utah was spend time with Andrew's Aunt Candy. She is Andrew's mom's twin sister and the closest our kids will ever get to knowing their grandma. I love her laugh and genuine interest in everything that is going on--we love Aunt Candy! (And her yummy dessert bars!) Last time we visited Utah we got to spend some time with Aunt Candy and Uncle Loyal; this time we got her to spend some time with some of her children and grandchildren as well. The kids had so much fun getting to know each other and playing like old friends.

I think this may have been the only time that we got our kids and Rachel's kids in the same picture together. What a good looking bunch of kids we have!

Reagan was hilarious with the Disney princess chair. At one point she was just having a full on conversation with it. Hilarious!
 
The worst part of this get together was the good byes. As Aunt Candy was getting ready to go Reagan got very upset. Her lip turned down and she pleaded with her "stay! Don't go!" It broke my heart, but also warmed my heart to know that my kids have their Aunt Candy who loves them and they love back:)
We love you Aunt Candy, Uncle Loyal, and the whole Utah clan!

Just so you know, I am upset we didn't get more group pictures of these cousins! I would love to have copies of the pictures you have , as I didn't take near enough. Thank you for posting your adventures in Utah. Fun to see your side. I have tried to update but my computer froze up the first time and I was interrupted the second.

How wonderful. I've never met Candy but have heard great things about her! What a sweet visit.
