Elanor chanted their names in a little sing-song voice the whole time they were here. Caitlin and Mallory are, by the way, twins, and also very good, old (as in I have known them since kindergarten) friends. They are the best and they came to visit us last week.
We had a wonderful time exploring Salt Lake City, hiking, listening to stories, tasting chocolate, sipping tea, watching movies, eating fish fingers and custard, and talking, talking and more talking. I love them and am so glad they came to visit!
Thanks you two!
I did not get as many pictures as I would have liked but here are a few:
{Oh, and I would not mind it if you (meaning Caitlin and Mallory) email me any of your pictures--I'll email you mine.}
We took Caitlin and Mallory to our favorite bookstore--The King's English Bookstore--Elanor had some story time while we explored the store/listened in. Can you tell she loves it?

The weather turned a bit cold the next day, but we still ventured up Ensign Peak.

We had a little Doctor Who party for Caitlin and Mallory and invited our neighbors (new Whovians--such a weird, nerdy term... I know...).
We had Doctor Who-y food such as fish fingers/fried fish and custard (honey mustard custard--say that out loud--it is surprisingly fun), chips (as in fries), parsnips (not really Doctor Who, but quite British) and some artichoke dip (not Doctor Who either, but very yummy). We also had a chocolate soufflé cake in honor of the Doctor's new companion, Clara.
{I am aware that everything is the same color. It all tasted good, though.}
After the babes were all sleeping we also watched an episode, of course.

| We took the Trax downtown and it was a very clean, enjoyable experience. Elanor especially loved it. |
And...unfortunately this is the last picture I took. Caitlin and Elanor are pretending to be asleep in a boat-bed display at the Church History Museum. Elanor actually looks quite believable, don't worry, you do too, Caitlin.
We had such a lovely time. Thanks again for coming. I love having visitors, so please come family and friends!
