Shane Finally Won

One of our favorite games to play is Settelers (sp?) of Catan. However, we are not very good at it. We always lose! (Well especially when we play against Aaron-he cheats!) But Shane finally won the other day! (Because Aaron wasn't playing!) Congrats babe!

I'm trying to show a picture of the longest road-which was mine! I'm the green!

Shane is so Proud!

Melissa couldn't bare the fact that she lost and Michelle is happy that this game didn't end in a brawl like usual! Ha ha!

My Dream Come True

As all young girls dream about the man that they will someday marry, one of my many requirements was to marry a man that could sing so that he could sing me to sleep. I married Shane. He does not sing. I had to make an exception, but however to be nice I have allowed him to sing since that is his favorite thing to do in the car. And the number one song that he likes to belt it out to is "I Don't Want To Miss A Thing" by Aerosmith. Lets just say that I use to like that song. Love you Honey! You make me laugh!

Harlem Globe Trotters

Grandma got all of us tickets to the Harlem Globe Trotters. It was super fun-especially since we were all together! (The 7 grandkids) And I haven't seen this show in a long time, and Shane had never been. Brody loved it-so did Chase!

Everyone but Shane (taking the picture), Angie and Jamie (left early)

Little Miss Brooklyn! She is so cute!

The main star

I love this picture! Ashlee, Amber and I with our kids! Love ya girlies!

Ode To Ross

Oh how I love you Ross
with all your clothes galore.
I can spend hours with you on end,
you are my favorite store.

Thank you for bringing me
so much happiness and joy.
You give me everything I need
and help me look stylishly coy.

The End

Another Good Friend

This picture was taken like 3 years ago, but Megan is still so much apart of my life. We met in the Washington Terrace Ward and served in the Young Women's program together (for like 2 years I think). So anyways, Megan and I still keep contact on a regular basis (it helps when we both work for the same organization too!) Megan is one who you always know will be there for you. She is so caring and so sweet! I know that there have been multiple times that I have been sick, and she has shown up at my door with some soup! She is always thinking of others and is so aware of others needs! Megan-you are the best and I am so glad that we are going to always be friends!

The Latest Creations.

I've been finding more time lately to do my favorite hobby. So here is some of the most recent creations in the last month!

A Good Friend

So I always do a post about someone that has made a difference in my life and of whom I think greatly of! This time it is August! I have known August for about a year. We are in the same ward. She was the one who really helped me get involved with the ward. She is such an accepting person. The first time that we got together we told each other all our struggles, our problems, hopes and fears and she has never judged me for my mistakes or hard times. She helped me out so much in a time in my life when the days were a little too dark. She understood and gave me some great advice about what I was going through at the time. She has helped me to come out of my shell and to just accept what life has given me and what I can do with it all. I look up to August so much, I am so grateful that she is my friend-I know that she was heaven sent. She came at a time in my life when I needed a friend the most!

The Tree House

Last week Brody, Chase and I went to The Tree House with August and two of her little ones. We had a lot of fun! Brody did so good! He was just so involved with everything that was around him! He did this on his own. Look at how sweet!

Pres. Obama was even there!

Brody and Carson

Chase and Anna

Chase loved the map of Utah!

The Airplane

This was Chase's first trip and first time on the plane. He did such a good job. I was so nervous for it all, but he proved to me that he can be a really good boy (as long as I am giving him crackers!)

He loved looking out the window!

The cutest guy on the plane (then it was Brody and Shane)

Peek-a-boo

A little bit of Dallas

This was at the JFK memorial.

More Dallas

I love flamingos!

This was Brody's idea!

This little Sloth was so cute!

The Wedding

Camille is my ultimate hero, and it was wonderful to see her get married to a great guy. She has been through so much and she deserves so much happiness! When Matt went on his mission to Puerto Rico, I knew that it would bless his family, and Camille has been living proof of that! We know and love her through Matt. Congrats Camille! We love you!

Camille and Alex at the Dallas Temple. The whole day was beautiful!
