Visit from Tiffany and Isabela and Enrichment night EXCITEMENT!

Tiff is like my BEST friend ever from Utah. We are sisters but just got sent to different mothers on accident- We found some cheap flights so she came out to visit. It was SO NICE!!! It was great weather for her, the kids played for 5 days straight with out ONE argument or fight. They shared the whole time, played, colored, had sleep overs and had the TIME of their lives. It was so hard to see her go. When she got home I had realized that we DIDN'T EVEN TAKE ONE PICTURE of us together. WHAT????? Yep, we both are hooked to our camera's and didn't even snap a shot!

While Tiff was here we also went to the Children's museum, The Amazing Pizza Machine, and Shopped a lot. 







She helped me out so much with getting ready for our Enrichment Dinner. It just happened to fall on that same week she was here. We did a big dinner, talent numbers and video of all the RS sisters in our ward. It turned out really fun THANKS TO EVERYONE who helped out!!! My house was a wreck after cooking food, and getting thing ready for the night and she cleaned the whole house when I got home. She is such an amazing friend. I just love that girl.

She got to see the greatest part of omaha AMES street. (du, du, dooooo). Let me start out with Dave was running late- so I had the kids. I was trying to pack the subaru and the back hatch doesn't open to load EVERYTHING in it for the night. So, I call my friend Jessica to borrow her subaru. I get it all packed and off we head to the church to set up. As we are driving on AMES --my favorite part of Omaha a lady hits us from behind. LET ME REMIND YOU I AM NOT IN MY OWN CAR- I AM IN JESSICA'S.  So we pull over into that little parking lot at that little grocery store. We are checking out the cars to make sure nothing happened- the kids are upset, I am flustered, the lady is freaking out- OH WAIT IT GETS BETTER-- 
This Drunk man comes up to us asking for money. Well he not only was begging for money- he was begging for a kick in the shins. He had his MAN PARTS hanging out of his pants. NO JOKE!!! This is what I saw right before I got to the church. DISGUSTING!!!!  I just sped off after telling him "NO" to his plead for money. Anyways..... besides Meili freaking out and not letting me set up at the church because she was crying so bad- the night was great! And Tiff helped me out a TON. 

I AM OPEN TO ANY OTHER VISITORS THAT WOULD LIKE TO VENTURE ON OUT!!!

You've got to love Ames street! I'm glad there were no drive by shootings along with the other events. Way to Serve! I'm sure the night was a success:)
