Week with the Orams















This past week has been jam packed with fun! My sisters and parents came to town so my dad could go on a motorcycle trip with Cody and the girls could head to Park City for a girls weekend of shopping and eating. Well, one day into the trip my dad's new bike had "issues" ---(which please don't ask my mom about it---my dad's bike is kind of a sensitive subject) so dad and Cody ended up coming home 3 days early which was fine with us because that meant they got to watch Maile's baby Canon for the weekend! What troopers they were. Above is a cute picture of my sisters and mom and below is a picture of my mom with her two sisters. My Aunt Pat lives in SLC and my Aunt Barb lives in Seattle so they love it when they get a chance to all be together!

















Of course we had to go to lunch with all the girls one day---we were calling it
"Lani's last lunch" in hopes that she would have the baby within a day or two of this picture but I'm sad to report for Lani's sake that she is 3 days overdue at this point! At least she's not feeling the least bit miserable----RIGHT! I had a nightmare the other night that she had her baby and forgot to tell me but I called her and she assured me that would never happen!


















Below is kind of a tragic picture for me....Quinn found my cabbage patch doll from when I was young. Trying to keep the "favorite aunt" status I actually let him play with it (although I will be honest and say I don't think he showed it the proper respect it deserves!) anyway, he was a little disgusted that I didn't have a diaper on her so he put one of Canon's on her---he actually did a pretty good job! My favorite line of Quinn's from the week was when he asked Kami "why does Aunt Nalani have a different laugh than anyone else?" Then he proceeded to imitate my laugh with his face all scrunched up and a really loud cackle.....not so cute.


















We celebrated Maile's birthday the night before they all left. Her birthday is actually Sunday but her husband is in China right now on business so we wanted to make sure she had some sort of party! My mom made her favorite raspberry chocolate cake and more hot fudge for hot fudge sundaes. Even though we were bursting at the seams of Casa de Baadsgaard with everyone here for a week I was still sad to see them all go!
