Visit with the Millard Family

We had a fabulous weekend with Ben, Stefanie, Micah, Tyler, Rachel and Lauren. They came up for a night and we got to enjoy some great adult game time and also have the kids enjoy some games and movies and a treasure hunt (geocaching).

Here is the giant fort we built with the Toy Story characters prominently displayed.

Rachel was quite the photographer and enjoyed taking artistic pics.

Here is a photo Rachel took of her dad, Ben.

Jaydon and Lauren getting ready to go out for a walk to find the Geocache(s).

Walking down the hill towards the park.

Going through the neighborhood close by. Yes, it does look like Jaydon has just been left alone to cross a street but the photo has a bit distorted perspective. We were actually just trying to get a photo of him walking by himself next to everyone because it was so cute. He walked pretty darn close to a half a mile by himself.

Success! We found the treasure on our first attempt. Here the kids are looking through the box for a goodie they could keep.
After we found this one it started raining quite a bit harder but we thought we would give one more a try (Jaydon and Jeremy decided to pass on this one). After walking quite a ways in the opposite direction and getting right where the cache should have been we were not successful in locating it (after some research online I found out that it was just missing that day), we were certainly ready for the hot chocolate and the fireplace that Jeremy and Jaydon had ready for us when we returned. We had a great time and hope to have another fun weekend with the Millards again soon.
