We're All Together



We haven't all (Mark's siblings) been together in a long time. Mark's brother Paul and his new girlfriend came down from Provo to visit us all last spring. He wanted us to meet his girlfriend Tami, which we did, and loved her. Come back soon Paul and Tami.

Now & Then


Isn't it amazing how time flies? This is Marlise and her friend Kaitlyn from the first day of school back in 3rd grade and now in 7th grade.

Girls Just Want to Have Fun!


Marlise had a ton of fun this summer with her girl cousin (there aren't many). My mom and I went to the dollar store and the girls were dying for shower caps (who knows why). They had a ton of fun wearing them around my parents' house (of course nowhere else, they're teenagers).

Cameron was my Dad's Slave for the Summer


My dad loved having Cameron scratch his head and hands. Everytime we would all be visiting, and Cameron wasn't playing with cousins, my dad would put Cameron to work. Cameron is such a sweet boy, he would never say no (everyone else would but him). All his hard work paid off in the end and he got paid right before we left (a whole 10 dollars). Thanks, Dad, for putting Cameron to work when he was bored.

Summer with Cousins








We had a blast this summer visiting all of our cousins, aunts, uncles and grandparents. We miss everyone already, and can't wait to see everyone again!! Maybe they'll come visit. (hint hint)

Moroni Rising to the Sky






My parents live right across from the new Draper Temple that is being built and almost done. When we were up there this summer visiting (getting away from the heat), we got the pleasure to witness Moroni being put onto the top of the Temple. It was a very special event, and my mom and sisters and kids all got to be there for it. The Spirit was strong and I will never forget the feeling I felt when he was being lifted up to the top. Every time we visit my parents I will remember that day.

Look At That Shiner




David fell down the stairs and hit the tile just right. I took him to the doctor and everything was fine except for a big shiner on his head. It took weeks for the swelling to go down and it's still not all the way down yet almost two and a half months later.
