Pioneer Day

We went to Mamma and Bampa's for a bbq this Pioneer Day. Before dinner the kids decided it was time to cool off-they had lots of fun playing together!

Tessa's first pool day

Tessa got pretty good at getting herself in and out of the pool.

While they dried off, Roxy, Ellie and Adam watched some Coraline

Spring Haven

We had a fun weekend up at Spring Haven with the Nielson side of the family! I love spending time with them-it's almost like being in Bakersfield again.

Enjoying the beautiful outdoors!

Not everyday you get to see a General Authority having a water fight

This was my Easter dress in 1981. My Grandma Wanlass made it for me and while the picture is fading, the dress is still vibrant-especially on Tessa. Mom saved some of my old baby clothes in case I ever had a little girl-we like our memories! Tessa fits this dress now and I wish Grandma could see her in it. I think it would make her happy to know that another generation is wearing and enjoying her creations.

4th of July

We had a very busy 4th of July weekend, but is was a lot of fun! We are so glad we live in Utah this year to enjoy the festivities with our families. We went to the balloon launch of Friday morning, the parade on Saturday morning, had a bbq with my family that afternoon and spent the evening with the Nielson's at BYU for Stadium of Fire fireworks. Adam and Tessa loved everything!! We had a great time making new memories together. We are so grateful for our country and the blessings of freedom we enjoy! Thank you to those who who serve our country and keep us free! Danny and Jake-our thought are with you this holiday weekend! Thank you for your service!!
