talbot time

wesley (wesman) is leaving on his mission to long beach, ca on wednesday (may 13). we got together to have some hamburgers, and play games (shoe & sock game one of my favorites) when did he become old enough to go on a mission. speaking of growing up, when did chad become a father and when did brett move away from home. it is sad and true that we are all growing up. i am so thankful though that we have grown up close. 

i love getting together with them. all but wes have gotten hitched and i love their spouses. i feel like we have been family all along. the talbots will always hold a tender place in my heart. we have gone to koa's, bear lake, tubing down the river, skiing, christmas traditions, and many bbq's and game nights. i will always have a lot of memories of them. i will share just one now...we were at bear lake talking around the fire (brett, chad, amanda, katie, lindsey, wesley, and me). mom poked her head out of the trailer and told us to go to bed. we started picking our chairs up and the boys said we need to put the fire out. they told us to turn around...the smell was horrid. i grew up with sisters and a dad who did not do stuff like that. we laughed so hard...i still laugh today. by the way, thinking about that trip, reminds me of the 'scandal' at bear lake. all the talbot kids and the birrell kids shared a tent...please we were like 8-15 years old...it was by far the best bear lake trip i have ever had. I LOVE THEM!!!
