PHS Homecoming

Matt Barry took Claire to Provo High's Homecoming.
Don't they look great?!?!?
He even brought me a rose, ahhh, what a guy!

Mr. Wonderful

This is especially for you young moms that wonder if your little ones will ever be independent. Thomas called from school this week to see how I was feeling. The conversation went something like this:
"Do you have anything planned for dinner?"
"No, is there something special you want?"
"Do you feel up to making dinner?"
"No, it's been an especially rough day."
"How about I hurry home and make you dinner before I have to leave for my activity?"
"That's sweet honey, but you shouldn't have to go to school all day and then come home and make dinner for the family because I've been in bed all day!"
"Well, what if I want to?"
"Ok"
So, he and Laura came home, made a wonderful dinner and ran out the door to their activity without even eating...they didn't have time.
Thank you, Thomas, for taking care of me. I love you!

Just sweet

Thomas and Laura after a long day...

Abbie fell asleep in Thomas' bed...so they had morning snuggles.

Stewart Falls

Thomas had the day off work and was determined to get out into nature! He and Laura and Lane went hiking.

We're so blessed to live in this beautiful land!

My Claire

I know she's mine, but isn't she beautiful?!?!? Dennis wanted some updated photos so we did a little photo shoot today.

Not bad for mom being behind the camera! I really need to learn how to use my own camera~

Just a lot of nonsense

Kayti's silly "up do"

Abbie's turn for Kayti to do her magic

Just what CAN you do with Mom's short hair?

The best sports of all...with millions of tiny pony tails...

Sunday Night Singing

On Sunday evenings the kids all gather and sing hymns. Tonight we decided to do it around a fire on the patio...and roast marshmallows! Hmmm, how do you eat roasted marshmallows while singing....?

We love having them here. "Them" changes weekly, tonight it's a small group.
Fun, but small 8)

Amber and Claire

Thomas....doing what? Mr. Photogenic doesn't even look stupid when he's being stupid! Oh wait, he's doing something important...that's a tuning fork next to his ear! We love him.
