Me, Dice & Meg


Even though we don't spend as much time together as we once did, I still consider these girls some of my best friends...

"We each take different paths in life, but no matter where we go, we take a little of each other, everywhere."

Here comes the sun...

On Friday we roasted hot dogs and marshmallows with some of our friends.  We wanted to try out Cameron and Aaron's new longboards and they are SO MUCH FUN!  I think I have found a new hobby, and I know for sure that Jeff has!  We are planning on getting our own here in the near future... And I can't wait!

We made Toni's famous Snicker Salad which is delicious.  Jeff was a good helper as you can tell from the cool whip all over me!

I look forward to watching Jazz Games for this reason:

McKenzie's Birthday P-A-R-T-Y

Happy Birthday McKenzie!
McKenzie is the sweetest girl.  I can't believe how fast she is growing up!  She is always making me laugh and she has such a bubbly personality.  For her birthday we had pizza, cake & ice cream and strawberry shortcake.  We hope that you had a great day Kenzie, we love you!
I just thought this picture was so cute.  Kinley is such a funny little girl!  She wanted to always be right next to Brynlie.  Kelsi said, "She wants to be with the girls!"

Sunny St. George


We just got back from a very much needed trip down to St. George.  Why was this little trip so greatly needed you might ask?  A- I am SO ready for warm weather!  While we were enjoying the 80 degree weather there, it was snowing in Provo!  And B- It was just nice to get away.  It was SO much fun spending time with Jeff's family!  Here are a few highlights of our SPRING BREAK...

Right before we left we had to go to the doctor for Brynlie's 2 month check up. I can't believe she is already 2 months old... It's going by SO fast!  She had to get shots (poor girl) but she was SO good, she slept the entire drive down...  and the whole way back without even making a peep at all!  She really is the best baby! I feel so lucky!
 Aaron (Jeff's little brother) received his MISSION CALL!  We were all SO anxious to find out where he would be serving for the next 2 years.  He opened it down in St. George because a few of us, including Aaron went down on Monday, and the rest of the family didn't join us until Thursday, so they brought his call down with them..

Aaron will be serving in the Ghana Accra mission.   He won't have to wear a suit,  and he even gets to wear sandals!  He doesn't leave until August 29th, so he still has about four months to hang out with us before he goes!  We are SO excited for Aaron and we know that he will be such an amazing missionary!


We played tennis... 

Then we golfed...

 I was the official score keeper/golf cart driver... I tried it a couple of times for Jeff's sake and didn't even come close to well, anything.  I even hit one straight into the pond in front of us... Oh well!

Our trip would not have been complete without a stop at Fiesta Fun for Go-Carts and Mini-Golf

Watch out! Coleman's driving!

This was Brynlie's first time in the pool, and she did not like it one bit!  I was a little surprised because she LOVES bath time, so naturally,  I thought she would like swimming as well. Boy was I wrong!

We had so much fun and really enjoyed the week!

.:Blessed:.




Brynlie was BLESSED today and it was such a special day for us!  We feel so lucky to have such a great family and great friends who came to share this wonderful experience with us!  We were overwhelmed with all of the love and support we had from them. I am especially grateful for Jeff, he gave Brynlie such a sweet and heart felt blessing. I am so thankful that he is a worthy priesthood holder and that he is able to bless our family in such ways. I honestly did not want the day to end, and I didn't want to take her out of her dress, she was so adorable in it... It was just like a miniature wedding dress! We took SO many pictures, see the slideshow below!

Meet Coleman

The other night Jeff's brother Brandon and his wife Lynsi invited us over to watch the Jazz game and to have dinner with them.  We had a fun time and FINALLY got some pictures of their little boy Coleman with Brynlie!  Here is the outcome of our attempt...


I can't believe we actually got one with them both looking at the camera
 
I thought that Jeff just looked so cute in this picture... (Brynlie looks cute too)
I asked Jeff to show his teeth, and this is what he did!  He is such a dork, but he is always making me laugh! This is just one of the MANY reasons why I love him!
