Is it any wonder why I love my family?

Here's our Bailey- boy

It's fun playing dress-up with the girls!

Delaney & Eliza - so cute in outfits that Aunt Rosie sent

Papa & Colby - he FINALLY conquered the hot tub, whoo hoo!

(No jets yet though!) For anyone who may not know, Colby has been terrified of the hot tub (and our bath tub) since he was 2 or so and it took plenty of bribing to get him in this year. Way to go Colbs.

Smilin' Eliza likes our kitchen sink - it's her version of a hot tub

Delaney and Jeremy

(who is practicing holding a baby since he & Tauna are expecting another boy in June - we can't wait!)

Colby loves ice cream cones

Josh - happy to be living in Utah again (we hope!)

Spencer - is it any wonder why Melissa fell head over heels?

Our 3 grandboys

Jaxson (12), Bailey (11) & Colby (4)

More hot tub fun

Finally!!

Our cute Delaney

When they moved to Boston, Josh said it would be for "5 to 10 years", which sounded like a prison sentence to me. Here it is 9 years later and they're finally home! Josh was able to keep the same "dream" job that he had in Boston and they sold their house without even putting it on the market. They got here Monday at 1:30 and by 5:00 had found their "forever" house! Things have fallen into place very nicely and it's obvious they are being blessed. We are too because they're staying with us for 5 or so weeks till they can move in. We love having them here!

Eliza

Both babies are sooooooooo good. They just lay on the floor (when we're not holding them!) and play - then fall asleep, wake up and play some more. It's simply amazing.

Delaney & smiling Eliza

Delaney really smiles a lot too, it's just harder for me to get a photo of it. I'll keep trying.

William (Tauna's nephew who lives across the street) and Colby

New best friends. Colby's never had kids to play with in his neighborhood so he's in seventh heaven and thinks he needs to play with Will all the time!

Grandkid fun!

The night before we left for Vegas, Jon, Amy and Abbie totally surprised us with a visit. We were at my mom's house and at 11:30 Friday night they walked in while we were all sitting at the dining room table talking. We had a great week with them and decided they need to come for every school break. It's about a 10 hour drive and Abbie did really well on the trip. On the way home though, she kept saying, "All done, all done!" She has really grown and talks a lot more now. We laughed a lot at her words, especially the way she says, "Ok." Ask us about it sometime, it's cute.

Abbie loved getting in the hot tub with papa

Bailey, Jaxson & Abbie at Hogle Zoo

Total cuteness!

Jaxson carried Abbie around the whole zoo. He and Bailey are so cute with her, it's fun to see.

Bailey's GQ pose

Wow - 35 years together already!

Jeff surprised me with a fun little weekend getaway to Las Vegas for our anniversary. We stayed at Trump International which is a smoke-free, gaming-free hotel - nice! We had a really wonderful vaca and enjoyed every minute of our time together. We've been so blessed to have a great and very happy life together and I am eternally grateful that this wonderful man is mine. I love him with all my heart.

Gram's 87th Birthday

Sue, Karen, Jim, Bonnie & Mom

27 of us celebrated at a new restaurant in Logan and had a fun night helping her know how special she is to us all. We sure love her and are glad she's around to celebrate with us!

Beautiful pair!

Blessing Day

It was a beautiful day here and we're so glad we were able to come for this special event. Josh gave them beautiful blessings and they were like little angels. Colby even bore his testimony - too cute! Papa helped him but he was so brave and did a great job.
