Can I just brag for a minute? Okay, thanks. I have the BEST family and friends EVER! As you may know, I live in the middle of nowhere. And-here's the amazing part-I have had visitors every month this year except for January-which really shouldn't count anyway because Josh and I were in Utah for New Years. I know, I am way spoiled. Plus, if you throw in my trip home in March for my grandma's funeral, a trip to Pima to visit with Josh's Aunt's family, and then to Utah again in April for my brother's farewell, I have been really lucky this year. So, as I share some photos from all the fun times, check your schedules, because right now I still have availabilities for June through December! I don't really make breakfast that often though, so maybe I should call it a "Bed and Whatever-You-Can-Find-to-Eat"....hmm, the name's a bit lengthy, I'll have to work on it. These pictures are not in any sort of order; just FYI.
While Josh's mom and little brother were here, we went out to the desert and cooked hot dogs and played games, etc. Josh has Night Vision Goggles (NVGs) for work and they are pretty fun to look through at night. This is Spencer trying them out. They look pretty goofy when you wear them, but how well they work makes up for it.
This is on our way to the "ice cream store". I am not sure if it's because we had a 15 passenger van growing up, but I always think it is more fun when we jam everyone into one car. I was in the front seat with my mom and dad. Seven people isn't really that impressive. One time in college we fit ten people in my Dodge Neon to go to the movies.

Jess had to pick up a few more things for the mission, so we went to SLC and we were able to do a session at the temple. I have never done a live session, and I loved it! It was a lot easier for me to pay attention.

This is our new tent. Josh recently purchased this old truck and he needed the tent that goes with it of course! Actually, Josh wanted a camper, but this was much more affordable. I was a little skeptical at first, but it is actually pretty cool. We set this up on the aforementioned campfire cookout with GayLynn and Spencer. We had to take it down because Brutus kept trying to get in it.

Ah....Baby Animal Day. A classice Easter weekend event that I have never had the priviledge of going to before. This place is in Logan, and they charge you an arm and a leg to get in, but the kids love it. This is (from L to R) Jack, Gaven, and Haylee (my brother Mike's kids). Oh, and the back of Audra's head. If Audra's head wasn't in the way, you would be able to see the cute baby bunnies the boys are holding. Oh, and good news: the Robison kids did not kill any baby ducks or chicks this year. Apparently, that is a big accomplishment.

This is little sister Adrianna about to hit the ball in her softball game. It was a really good hit. She is on the high school team and they are super good. She also plays outfield, but I didn't get any action shots of that, because the other team never got a hit....I told you they were good.

This is one of my favorite pictures of all time. Char and I were making churros and we didn't want to get grease on our clothes, so we borrowed my mom's aprons. We were laughing so hard about them, that my mom started laughing too, and we got a picture (Nate-O is in the back). I love pictures of my mom laughing, because she has a hard time smiling good in pictures sometimes.

Little Brother Jess now AKA Elder Robison. He's all grown up and being a missionary in Portland, Oregon. Well, technically, he is still in the MTC. I am really glad he is there, but we sure will miss him, especially the dog.
So fun, I don't mind living in Ajo with all my company! Call/email/comment/facebook me so you can come visit too!

Hey I want to come and stay in your B&WYCFTO:) It was fun to see you a few weeks ago!
Sheesh, you have had a busy few months. Sorry to hear about your grandma. I agree we need to get together when you are in town again. I love making fun of our parents' fashion sense. It's the best. I know I've NEVER worn anything ugly. I should probably grow out my gigantic bangs again. You can't go wrong with huge hair. Living in Arizona is great. I swear I spent more time with my fam living there than I do living a couple hours away now.
hey I would pay to stay there and get your cookin!
I want to come!
Lisa I want you to come too!
what cool pictures! do you have an opening in Sept for three?
Conni and/or Nic -
It looks like we have one slot for three left in September, but these things fill up quick, so I would suggest finalizing your reservations as soon as possible.
Conni, you should totally come visit and we could go to Mexico and go to the beach! Assuming of course, the pig flu scare is over. The water there is very nice and warm and I think your husband and daughter will blend in with the natives pretty well. Fun!
