Glen came too visit us for a WEEK before he left for the Hill Cumorah Pageant work crew. We had such a great time with him! He was such a HUGE help with the kids and I've decided a live in nanny would be so amazing. He was kind and helpful and loads of fun. I wish he lived closer so that my kids could play with him more often, but we are grateful for the time with do have with him.
Here are the kids waiting for him at the airport. They were both SO excited!
Emma even wore her Kentucky shirt to show him her Kentucky pride!
My little helper making cookies for the party.
Glen even survived a summer swim meet... which is a true test of family love. They are hot and miserable and she swims for about 2 minutes total. But, it meant the world to Emma that Glen would come, so he was happy to show his support.
For family night, we drove out to the new Gilbert Temple to show Glen and take pictures for Emma's primary challenge. We are so excited to have another temple so close to us! It has been really fun watching it be built and now Emma says this is where she wants to get married. So cute.
Afterwards, we got some yummy shaved ice at Kealani's which Greg and I have been craving since we got back from Hawaii. YUM. It really does taste better when you are in Hawaii, but this was still really tasty.
Having a great time at Jump Street!
We had a great time enjoying a "stay cation" at the Arizona Grand Resort. They have a great water park and nice rooms and it was lots of fun.
Emma had one of her worst tantrums EVER while at the resort and missed out on an entire day of swimming, which was a huge bummer for the whole family, but I believe in following through with consequences even if they are horrible for me as well. Her behavior was much better the rest of our stay.
We played LOTS and LOTS of games with Uncle Glen.
And here he is at the airport getting ready to head out to the Hill Cumorah Pageant work crew. What a handsome kid!!
The kids were SOOOOOOOO sad to see him go. Emma cried and Grant called his name for DAYS after he left.
WE LOVE YOU GLEN! Come back again soon!!!

Glen is such a cutie! And I don't think he looks a ton like any of your brothers...he's got his own look. Don't you think?
