Fun on Stella's Birthday

Stella got a parachute for her birthday and we had some fun. Brody and Payson were able to come too. Skids will play!!!

Congratulations Jordan!!!

In case you haven't heard, Jordan got accepted into another graduate program. Forgive me if I remember incorrectly, but I think he's been accepted to a special program at Georgetown University. His University of Utah days are over. Amy and Jordan are moving to Washington D.C. They are going to be renting their new house they just purchased. The Utah cousins will miss you.

Jordan is also in the process of riding his bike from Canada to Mexico. What adventuring spirits, Amy and Jordan have.

I can't remember if you're going to be able to make it to Korea with the rest of the family to pick up Spencer. I hope you get to. I think that will be another fun, amazing, adventure.

I know, I know, it's kind of a "cheezy" post.

"Wax" Museum

I took Maizy to a "wax" museum at one of the local schools in May. It was a fun little outing.

Welcome Home Carrie!

It was so much fun playing at the airport this morning while we waited for Carrie to arrive. I wish Oscar had gotten to bed earlier the night before though, he said that's the reason he was not being the most pleasant person. Zeke just has a lot of energy. I thought we were going to be banned from the airport for his continuous riding on the escalators, even after a security officer had already talked to him earlier. I told Zeke that we will have to save our money to buy an escalator that he can play on. The ones at the airport aren't ours, so we can't play on them.

I didn't get many pictures taken with my camera. I know others have some good ones. I just thought I'd post some of what I captured. You're so beautiful Carrie...sorry we stole your balloons...Welcome Home!!!

Those who were at the airport this morning included: Uncle Allen, Aunt Kathy, Natalie, Grandma and Grandpa Lee, Aunt April, Uncle Bryan, Aunt Lisa, Jason, Austin, Aunt Julie, Charity, Mandy, Oscar, Zeke, Maizy, and Stella.

Congrats to Shannen!

Word is that Shannen received her first acceptance letter from an agent for her book she's been trying to get published. Her dream is now in reach!
