Family in Town

My brother got married back in June to the beatiful babe on the left in the first pic. Everyone came into town and we had lots of fun eating out, shopping, going to Disneyland, Cinderella play, pedicures, swimming, and lots of Yogurtland. Love family!

July 4th Parade - A First For Them

They had never seen one. It was so fun to see their excitement.

Took me back to watching the Labor day parade in Payson UT growing up.

Aubrey's Bug Party

Bugtastic fun we had for such a bug-phobic child!

Not Long Enough San Diego

After Disneyland we had to make a stop south of that to one of our favorite vactioning towns. You'd think we love going just for the beach, ocean breeze, and Balboa park but our favorite part to San Diego is - the Jensens. Spencer's aunt and uncle our the warmest welcoming and accommodating people I know.

Wish I had some pictures to show them off! Here are some of the girls instead.

Magical Kingdom

I really thought it was going to be crazy and frustrating waiting in lines - it wasn't. Does Disneyland get better with age? It has with me. They really know how to use that magic.

Happy 6th!

This is one of my favorite pictures from our wedding. The wedding day was over and we were being whisked away in our limo. We have that look - pure joy! I'm sure mixed in with relief and excitement that the day was finally over and our life together had begun. I loved you then and I love you more now. Happy anniversary Spencer!

Mother-in-law Gift?

Ahh, I'm pretty sure you win Spencer. Favorite son-in-law status is all yours.

So my husband whipped this garden bridge out over a period of 5 days working about 26 hours. Did I mention he looked at a picture said, "I like that one." and drew out his own pattern of it?

Also, after he finished at 11:30pm he drove over to my mom's house and carried it into her backyard. She's in for a sweet surprise tomorrow morning.

Reading the Paper

Do the Comics count? In our family they most difinitely do! Love this shot.

Cami's Kindness Day

Today is my niece Camille's birthday. She would have turned 3 this year. Camille and Aubrey were closest in age as cousins. We have tried to keep Camille alive in our girl's memories since her passing.

We sing Camille's lullaby at night to the girls. We talk about where she is on a regular basis. Nora is constantly asking us when Camille will be resurrected. We recently went to visit her grave, which also brought up a lot of questions from Nora about death and resurrection.

Today, to continue in the spirit of keeping her alive in our memories, we will be participating in Cami's Kindness Day. In honor of Camille's birthday we will do an act of kindness as a gift to her.

We love and miss her. All are invited we hope that in sharing this you too will feel a desire to give a gift to Camille for her birthday. Have a great day!

Nora Showing Some Sass

Nora has memorized some of the Article's of Faith. We try to refresh her memory every now and then. Today, I thought I would record it. I was expecting the norm but here's what she had to say.

Suprise Spencer!

We celebrated Spencer's 35th birthday yesterday by taking him out to a nice dinner just the two of us at Vintner Grill.

Well, according to Spencer it was just the two of us until we arrived and he was greeted by 17 of his closest friends and family in town.

We had a great time and the food was so very yummy. The picture was taken by my new iphone. What . . . who's birthday is it? If you are wanting to know, I love the phone.

My Easter Bunnies

My cute babes with cousins and some very yummy food!
