Lonely Days

You have to watch this. Made me laugh and I thought of my Paul. He would totally do this for me. Love him. (Sunday's are long days without him. I miss him.)

Wedding Bells

What a whirlwind of activites. It's very sureel to have one of your children get married. What a bitter sweet time in someones life. Brooke and Colton were married August 14th. Paul was able to marry them and what a sweet tender moment for him. We laughed, cried, and were nervous all at the same time. We had a few moments together... The whole event went off with no problems and we were pleasantly surprised by the turnout. About 350 people came to the reception to greet the two families and the two "lovebirds". Who are at the present time in Cancun enjoying themselves relaxing and enjoying this sweet moment in their lives.

The whole party was everything we expected it to be. The food was wonderful, the decor beautiful and of course all the people invovled were so gracious to do anything we asked of them. Thank you to you all.

Cali Trip

Went to Cali. for my dad's 80th birthday party. We saw lots of family and friends. It was busy but some of us managed to go to the beach, shop and hang out. The weather was great and we really enjoyed each other. When you only have a short time to visit you really try to savor the moments. That's what's important. Life is good.

Paul and Colt Surfing. They were in the water all day. Came home like little lobsters. Kenzi was out there too but I don't have a pic of her. She was so good at it, some people asked her on the beach if she knew where a good place was to eat. "I'm not from here, I'm from Idaho..." They thought she was a local. She looked so good with the board and wet suit!

The "Motley Crew"

Brooke and Kenzi at farmers market sharing a carmel apple w/ m&m's...

Paul, Kenzi, JR,(nephew)Colt and Brooke Framers Market is the best place to be in SLO on Thursday nights. Tons of people come from the valley and the food is great and the fresh produce is awesome. We ate so much fresh fruit. It was a lot of fun.

It's Been Too Long...

Heellloo fellow bloggers! I'm still alive and kickin' and doing ok thru the month of July. Lots of stuff happening at our house. Where do I begin? We had a great party of the 4th of July. Lots of family and friends here. Kenzi got to come home for a few days and we enjoy her of course. Colton and Brooke are still doing plans for the wedding which are in full swing. It's going to be wonderful. And for those who don't know our news, Paul will be able to marry them because he is now Heyburn 2nd ward's Bishop! Yes that's right, we're all still in shock and probably will be for quite sometime. It hit me out of the blue, Paul had some idea. We were doing alot of praying and I was thinking "whats going on here?" not that praying is not the norm in our household but it was how often and what was being prayed for. We're in full swing and it should be interesting to say the least.
We will be going to SLO in two weeks for my dad's 80th b-day party. We have alot of fun stuff planned for that and can't wait to take a little vaca...

We had a great family dinner here on Sunday after church. Great food of course and 4 of the sisters were here. It was a very nice day and we really enjoyed each other's company.
