Sophie sick and almost everyone leaves us.

Sophie felt lousy yesterday. She is really anti-social and grumpy when she's sick. I thought it was pretty funny, but poor Jessica tries so hard to get Sophie to be nice to everyone. When something or someone bugs her she growls at it or her and sounds just like the beast in "Beauty and the Beast" before he is tamed. It may have something to do with the number of times she watched it the last 3 days.

We finally got to see James. He's been at BYU recruiting all week. His parents brought the darling couple up last night. They missed seeing Sophie before her bedtime, but maybe that was a good thing. Here's Jen and James entertaining Tessa while Jessica packed this morning.

Here's the last shot of baby girl Quincy until she arrives to Houston, hopefully while I am there from the end of November to the first of December.

Here's James, Jenny and baby boy Kendall packing into the car. Its been so nice to have everyone here! Thanks for coming everyone! The next time we're all together there will be even more fun and excitement with the 2 new ones! Just a note that I'm thankful to still have Joni and Matt, Jack, and Josh and Meg here. I love having them over, Josh and Meg every Sunday and the others when they can make it. Jonathan isn't quite so bored and lonely with your visits and Meg; thanks for always jumping right in to help whether it's quilting or cooking or playing games! You make the pain of my kids leaving me much less painful!
