The Hawkins Came!!

My sister Kami and her husband Danny & 5 of their kids (Briley stayed in Show Low with my parents) came to stay with us!! I LOVE it when any family comes to stay with us so of coarse I was way excited to have them come. They stayed 2 nights and then extended their stay, but we drove to Casa Grande to stay in a hotel there that my dad just recently bought. Our kids love to swim so they were in the pool for hours!!


Again, Cali was such a big help with Bosten...I love it!! Bosten seriously loves to swim! He stayed in the pool forever and didn't even cry when he first got in & it was cold. He will for sure be a fish like his other brothers!



These 2 little boys are such good buddies when they are together. They are about 10 months apart. Dax is older than Dodger. Dodger calls Dax constantly and wants to just talk to him. Dax always asks me "why does Dodger always call me?". He loves it though!

I should have gotten a picture with Dax and his new sister, Brooke. While they were here Dax bought Brooke from her brother Cody (Kami's oldest) for a quarter. He really and truly believes that she is now his sister and that I now have a daughter. I woke up the next morning with Dax in my face saying to me "mommy, can you believe you have a daughter now?". He told me that we need to paint her room and get it ready so she can come live with us. That has been almost a week now, but he still talks about his sister and wonders when she'll come live with us. He has told several friends that he has a sister and cries when they don't believe him. I'm hoping he will soon forget about it because I don't want to break his heart and tell him that he really doesn't have a sister and never will!! I love his sweet little spirit and I'm just so thankful for him!
