We had lots of family come into town for Grandpa Brown's funeral. Chuck and Kristin came early, so we had a get-together on Labor Day with everyone that was here. The kids had so much fun playing together. Here are some pictures and a video of that day.
Grandpa Brown's funeral was very special. President Monson came unannounced and spoke at the end. It was such an amazing, spiritual experience. My kids were able to meet him and shake his hand and get a picture taken with him. Cierra has her eyes half-closed (in true Ben style,) but we are going to have someone try to photoshop it. It was fun to see so many of Erick's family members and catch up with them. Erick was even able to be home two weekends in a row, which was really nice.
Caden started preschool a couple of weeks ago and is loving it. He is still a little nervous when I drop him off, but he always has a good time. I'm so glad that he likes it because last year he hated school. Caden continues to make fantastic progress and we are so happy that he is in our family.
Erick and I had a niece and nephew born to our families in the last couple of weeks. We love that our family keeps growing and getting bigger. We now have 25 nieces and nephews!
Tammi Hope Sullivan arrived August 28th, joining Jared and Karen and seven older brothers.
Gavin Benjamin Morrow arrived September 9th and joins Ben and Mary and two older sisters.
Things are going well with the kids and I. I feel about as good as can be expected at 38 weeks. I am anxious to meet our new little boy and excited to have my body back. I am scheduled to be induced on October 5th at 5:30am, so only 9 days to go! Hopefully my next post will be all about our little one's arrival :)

Thanks for the great post! Carter had lots of fun looking at the pictures of all his cousins. I think he really likes Caden, even though he says his name backwards right now
Word up sis. Thanks for posting again, I greatly appreciate it. I can't believe you're having a baby that I won't be there for! that's the weirdest part of this all. I will miss the birth of that little guy! It won't be as awesome without me I'm sure! :) Love ya!
That's so neat you all got to meet Pres. Monson!
My boy looks like such a chunk in that picture :) He actually looks a lot different already. Can't wait to see yours!
I'm glad you've had some time to visit family. I hope that you'll be having your bundle of joy soon. That definitely helps one to feel better after feeling blah during the last part of pregnancy, doesn't it?
I'm keeping you all in my prayers. I hope things go well for you & your family.
*HUGS* & condolences for your loss.
I just want to post here so everyone knows; Nana and I LOVE having you guys here with us. What fun memories, and we get to be a part of them!
