Too...many...feelings.

When Tash and the boys got past airport security check in:

Getting back in the car, driving home:

Got home, the first thing I see is one of Wesley's bottles on the counter:

....Looking at the basement door:

Upon entering the kitchen, a distraught Sarah discovered that Mom had thrown away the cookies she and Tucker had made the night before:

Those boys are going to be all grown up next time we see them.

They won't even remember my naaaaame....

Picking up the coins scattered around my bedroom, and outside my window:

 Don't have to worry about putting the boogie board up, leaving the ping pong balls out, locking Jack's door, or leaving my phone near cups of water...

Sarah and I have been on opposite sides of the house today.  We met in the kitchen by accident...and ended up.... 

Finding out they made it safely to Baltimore...
 

Knowing Dewey gets his family back in a few hours...

 I'm honestly sooo happy they get to be together again!

Tash is gonna give Dewy a big ol hug, there'll be lots of happy crying...

I promise I am very happy for the Hansen clan.

I love you guys soooo much!




Dew Tash Tuck Wes and Sterling, I love you guys!  Have an amazing and fun time in Germany!!!!

Hope they are traveling safely!

Well....got up this morning pretty bummed.  I thought I'd say goodbye to 2 sleeping boys.  Luckily they were both wide awake and happy, and Tasha's flight had been bumped back 3 hours so we got to play at the airport for a little bit.

 Up at 5.
 Starting the day with some buttered toast, and cute little mittens.
 Saying goodbyes to Jack

 Twas a hard morning.
 We're both singing "ooooo" to the camera.  He was in a great mood the whole time :-)


 We went up and down and up and down and up and down.....
 Grammy and Michael came and said their goodbyes...



 Tasha's pose for her last prego pic in Utah.  ha ha ha!!!
Wes and Tuck were perfectly happy sitting and watching the luggage belt revolve for 20 mins. I'm sure Sarah's just chilling with them, teaching life lessons and such.

*sniff sniff. This is a bittersweet moment.

I've always wished I could spend more time with Tuck and Wes, and now that I have, it's ten times harder to see them go.  Not to mention Tasha, of course!!!!! I am so happy that Dewy will be getting his family back!  But this whole parting thing is really hard to do.  Here are a few pics.

 Cafe Rio.  A moment where a girl was more prepared than Tuck.
 Having fun at a park.


 This is from last night, right before bed.  We were playing boggle.  Wes had to be distracted or he'd want the letters of course.
 Wes was fascinated with the camera.
 This is from last night too. Just having some fun. Ha, he spent the whole day underwearless, running around in one of my fitness shirts.
 I've been eating a bit too much mandarin, eh?
 Ah, the room of fun.
 Goodness.
 What one does for the cutest boys in the world.
 Quite an awesome Nana.
 Tasha...loves cameras.
 ....a lot.
 St George vacationnnnnn!!!!
 Tra la la!!!!!
 ha ha ha....ha ha ha ha!!!!!

 A flippin cold hike.  I think this must have been the most singular hike I've ever been on.
Finally, we made it to the non-windy side of that blasted volcano hike.

 Tash was....you know, I can't quite remember what Tasha was trying to convey...ha ha ha
 ....and Tucker was trying to copy Tasha.
 Oh my goooooosh....I missss this little man!!!!!
 Closets.  The favorite hiding spot of nephews.
 These guys were big fans of the hiking, the sand, all of it.

 Gotta have some up in the air fun!



 Attaaaaaack!


 Lots of sand in the shoe...
 I've never seen so much orange.
 What better to do in the sand, than dig a tunnel.
Tuck man!!!! so flipping cute.
