Weekend Visitors


Ryan's parents and sister came into town October 18th-21st.   They flew into Omaha on Friday and didn't make it to Sioux City until after 8.  We had dinner then they went to their hotel to rest for the night.  The next morning they slept in and made it over for breakfast around 11.  After lunch Lanie played hide-and-go-seek with the kids.  The boys had a blast!  The rest of us just sat around and talked which was really nice.  It was Stake Conference and Ryan needed to attend a meeting.  While Ryan was at his meeting, Clay went back to the hotel to rest his back, while Karen, Lanie, the kids and I headed to the Sioux City Art Center.  Karen and I took the kids to the children's section while Lanie went and looked at the art.
Around 4 we headed to the hotel for swimming...

Emily would climb on Ryan...
Ryan would drop Emily in the water...
Emily would smile and say, "do again?"

 Now to the reason why we had visitors this particular weekend...Ryan was called to serve as the 2nd counselor in the bishopric and Clay came to ordain him a High Priest.  We are so grateful that they were able to come.
Monday morning Ryan's parents and Lanie went and toured the dental practice and had some x-rays taken.
We had a wonderful visit with our family over the weekend!  Thanks again for coming!
