More Good Times (October 12th)


The ROCK BAND Jeremy screamin' on the electric, Mom on vocals and Jared poundin' it out on the drums...with Miss Jayna working...the crowd?

Just some good ol' sibling rivalry

Analee...bouncin' out some of her endless energy. Don't be fooled by her shy little smile. This girl has a glass shattering shriek and will talk your ear inside out!

Livi, just rollin' around

Happy Birthday Olivia!


Auntie Heidi made the coolest birthday cake for our big two year old. To see more of her fine artistry visit her site at http://www.customcakesbyheidi.com. She's amazing! Anywho...Auntie Heidi is also responsible for our party of princesses. She is determined to be the "favorite aunt" and is not afraid to stoop to bribery!
I can't believe Livi is Two!!! ...the with stature of a 12 month old and the vocabulary of a four year old. She's as spicey as they come. Happy Birthday Big Girl!!

We had so much fun with all the family that came!
Audrey, Heidi, Jeremy, and Keri...We missed you Amie!!!

Smarty Pants


Luke is such a little smarty! He did a placement test to see how far ahead he was in his kindergarten class. He was tested in math, reading, etc... he TOTALLY creamed the test!
He says he doesn't like school though. I think he gets bored. We have a hard time keeping up with this kid. Any ideas would be vastly appreciated! I'm concerned that he with get himself into trouble if he isn't kept busy. Karate?

An Apple a Day

Livi loves to eat apples. Actually, she loves to chew apples and then spit the soggy peel carcasses back on her tray where her personal assistant (me) gets to wipe up the masticated remains. Maybe we should just stick with apple juice.

OH MY!!!

This picture made me laugh!! So like my little stink bug!
Olivia Joy has more personality in her little finger than most kids have in their entire bodies. She keeps us rolling all day with her pert opinions, clumsy movements, and hillarious sound effects. We do so love you, little monkey!

Bunches of Bows

A good week of work! About 300-400 bows!

A Day at the Temple

Jared had the day off of work so we decided to take a little trip and a picnic to the Las Vegas temple. There is a little valley to the side of the temple grounds where you are technically on the grounds, but out of sight of passers by. There we enjoyed our picnic lunch, played hide and seek in the trees, and basked in the abnormally warm October weather. Our three little nature lovers had a blast. Olivia found a dried leaf that she refused to detach herself from, Ana had to smell every patch of bloomage she passed, and Luke scratched himself climbing a big tree. We really enjoyed the spirit of peace that you only feel when you are on the temple grounds.
