Michael didn't have work or school that Friday so they actually went up a night early. A funny story that happened was that Lincoln picked up something (food maybe? I don't remember) Friday morning and Michael told him that it was yucky and to put it in the fire. Lincoln kept himself entertained by finding yucky stuff to put in the fire for quite some time. At one point Michael observed that the fire appeared to be dripping. He finally realized that Lincoln had taken their 2 dirty breakfast bowls (non-disposable) and thrown them in the fire!<br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhh1osrkeUoNYShDxL1yDV4HdxlqI4OYTds2TN-Ify2ICJmpAbo43Tnl39yOGZtroN5gDprtLplwSbZBWXzaWyat42J_qguxK5CAraMu3bF_YQ1FyfBn_5SJjur2vIg4VaOQJ_oIl-UP2L3/s1600-h/IMAG0028.jpg"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 300px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5391593316848031490" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhh1osrkeUoNYShDxL1yDV4HdxlqI4OYTds2TN-Ify2ICJmpAbo43Tnl39yOGZtroN5gDprtLplwSbZBWXzaWyat42J_qguxK5CAraMu3bF_YQ1FyfBn_5SJjur2vIg4VaOQJ_oIl-UP2L3/s400/IMAG0028.jpg" /></a> Michael likes to do things the easy way - no tent setting up for him!

I am so grateful that she gets to go because she craves activities and projects and I am just not very creative or good at providing those as much as I should. The biggest problem is that Lincoln hates dropping her off - not because he is going to miss her, but because her classroom looks so fun and he wants to stay every time. I don't imagine that it's going to get any less enticing for him either - especially because he does get to go every once in awhile. They have lunch bunch once a month and so it's especially hard right after that! She goes Monday thru Thursday from 11:45 - 2:30. On the nicer days we walk - it's literally closer to walk than it is to drive! I'm a wimp in the cold though - plus I don't want to freeze my sweet baby!</div></div></div></div></div></div>Jenniferhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10713019875140952664noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-896641569491365985.post-83505772566262815762009-10-11T21:47:00.002-06:002009-10-11T22:38:44.936-06:00Dora8/15/2009<br /><br />We waited well over an hour in the hot sun in this line . . .<br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiFzj4gyjE16t03dpz06d4KlmKUM6MYS38hcI2hnxxThvU6v7lEJiR1iaWemhlObgCyflnO9FyQCrYd7C8dmKkqHyl8XZtedoNvEO-fOXWvtwfVICHt4qQNpBCdC_Vhp6GxmQDFsqVCCzI5/s1600-h/IMG_2937.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 300px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5391567375076048402" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiFzj4gyjE16t03dpz06d4KlmKUM6MYS38hcI2hnxxThvU6v7lEJiR1iaWemhlObgCyflnO9FyQCrYd7C8dmKkqHyl8XZtedoNvEO-fOXWvtwfVICHt4qQNpBCdC_Vhp6GxmQDFsqVCCzI5/s400/IMG_2937.JPG" /></a> to spend 15 seconds standing next to Dora!<br /><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj-3e18o9CwdxjC1mpNoUtlWbQh2dna9r9JNXa37cLCacoPpv35PBZLAwcWAkNjHVTCBnH1uEuwlhh_g9yAebPxICOIzVj5GSrSD_AC2qStlK7amFMF1HJL4d7egqUZpunu4mdLZoUvX8p_/s1600-h/IMG_2927.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 300px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5391567366828200466" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj-3e18o9CwdxjC1mpNoUtlWbQh2dna9r9JNXa37cLCacoPpv35PBZLAwcWAkNjHVTCBnH1uEuwlhh_g9yAebPxICOIzVj5GSrSD_AC2qStlK7amFMF1HJL4d7egqUZpunu4mdLZoUvX8p_/s400/IMG_2927.JPG" /></a><br />At least they had free hotdogs, a bounce house, and 2 free t-shirts for us.

Amber and I got all 3 kids to sleep (it was a joint venture - thanks for the help Amber!), and got some much needed R&R. A few hours later when the guys got back I asked how the fishing went. Michael said, "Well, there's some things you just don't do when you're fishing." The kids had a blast playing, screaming, and throwing plenty of rocks into the water to scare the fish away.<br /><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhFmWRpwNhb7xO_WSWpA6rW_EnASxfVdtuDkiRP15286F4syA0s4ri1YApk0J7IVMXEtJ6j87aJOHLfXmvhlbyeGL-nIBX14ZPV8WAApJ1T9evaQ-7ebV9QVeEtXxBm4LmEgAYZvsBlSWri/s1600-h/IMG_2758.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 300px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5386358025710776834" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhFmWRpwNhb7xO_WSWpA6rW_EnASxfVdtuDkiRP15286F4syA0s4ri1YApk0J7IVMXEtJ6j87aJOHLfXmvhlbyeGL-nIBX14ZPV8WAApJ1T9evaQ-7ebV9QVeEtXxBm4LmEgAYZvsBlSWri/s400/IMG_2758.JPG" /></a> She sure is cute anyway though! Oh yeah. I almost forgot. This is the day that Amber saved Ashlyn's life. The water was cold and the bank was steep. All of a sudden I heard noise and looked to where Ashlyn was. (Amber was with all of the kids and I was scouting for a picnic place away from the group). When I looked all I could see was Ashlyn face down in the water. Amber grabbed her so fast and got herself wet, but I was so grateful! The place where we were got deep pretty fast and it could have turned bad quickly.

Hopefully there will be many, many more to come. </div><div> </div><div>One other funny thing I remember - our two families drove separately up to Woodland Park. There Amber and I went grocery shopping and the guys headed up to find a camping site. They had really poor cell phone reception, but were able to get through to us for a short time. Dan was giving me directions, and like I do with Michael, I was repeating everything to Amber. I am not very good at remembering the details, and so I count on Michael for that. We soon lost the call, and were headed into the forest. I started asking Amber things like, "Did he say turn right or left and the stop sign?" and she had no clue . . . she is just like me and relies on her husband to remember the details. We thought that was pretty funny. After some silent prayers, and a kind ranger of some sort we finally made it to camp:)</div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div>Jenniferhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10713019875140952664noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-896641569491365985.post-21418038450508746372009-08-30T22:32:00.003-06:002009-08-30T22:50:59.891-06:00Finally Heading Home8/5/2009<br /><br />After a quick visit to Vernal, UT to see Aunt Irene & Uncle Bob, it was finally time to return home to Daddy after 2 1/2 weeks. When my mom first asked me to go to AZ for my Grandpa's birthday party, Michael quickly calculated that it would be at the same time as finals and all but pushed us out the door:) <br /><br />Before you all think that I am amazing for driving 3 kids from Colorado to Arizona to Utah and back home by myself, just know that I only did the last stretch by myself. Thank goodness! My mom was with me going to AZ, and my dad and I had a wonderful visit on the drive to UT, and the kids and I had a great time on the way home. Here's some proof:<br /><br />Where else is Lincoln gonna stretch his legs when mom's nursing in the car because it's too stinking hot outside and Ashlyn's asleep in the back? In the barely big enough spot behind the steering wheel of course!<br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhl3EukhADqAN0IJtlgPrZjfVfiGFfXPmK7A7L9JAJ4yj5ZPzaqA9uZOn1vxyS-K2MvT4lutz2zEmD0DVIvTgYymFuvBG9JH2e9idpF0kXLHj1lEZJZaCo4dDaKj-k6qnInW_AyStp5jFQz/s1600-h/IMG_2641.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 300px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5375983134817736386" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhl3EukhADqAN0IJtlgPrZjfVfiGFfXPmK7A7L9JAJ4yj5ZPzaqA9uZOn1vxyS-K2MvT4lutz2zEmD0DVIvTgYymFuvBG9JH2e9idpF0kXLHj1lEZJZaCo4dDaKj-k6qnInW_AyStp5jFQz/s400/IMG_2641.JPG" /></a> We took the long way home from Vernal and went down through Aspen, Colorado. It added a few hours to our trip, but it was well worth it.

My dad recently retired from Banker Insulation where he has worked since before I was born, and now he is spending his time working on their rental propertys, one of which is in Utah. The kids and I got to stay at Uncle Forrest's house for a week and I loved hanging out with all of them. They were some of my favorite cousins growing up and I spent quite a bit of time there during college too, but I hadn't been there for a few years for a real visit. Ashlyn had a ball playing her new Cinderella game with Tylie (Jake & Andrea's daughter).<br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi6khhRobl9zHtIvf1qRpOICRlWozn7qw-QGKe7faORhB-3Wr3tVcWMsphQN-WAm7JwGnmAAOxFZLxN2ozAYXB6vjpnXS3yljuESQLfV1cVfz78Oyl_mq6kNkccN2RxQ6F2QPiZHTYWieHV/s1600-h/IMG_2606.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 300px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5375974047486652386" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi6khhRobl9zHtIvf1qRpOICRlWozn7qw-QGKe7faORhB-3Wr3tVcWMsphQN-WAm7JwGnmAAOxFZLxN2ozAYXB6vjpnXS3yljuESQLfV1cVfz78Oyl_mq6kNkccN2RxQ6F2QPiZHTYWieHV/s400/IMG_2606.JPG" /></a> The girls were so cute and I was just thrilled that Ashlyn was getting to enjoy time with Jake's daughter. <br /><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgzU7f1b_amm3lLlfp5AGrle_MrTzEi0PwBZWqS7XKkQJsuDuNQ7kKbbCpewK9V_VA9Y0y7BIdY8QI2okLkAtokHEEmW7om7p-Zxz8-sfoBRh_Aqois6PPniuZLq7V1WIKhZihb1QK8h3Rg/s1600-h/IMG_2611.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 300px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5375974037900960850" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgzU7f1b_amm3lLlfp5AGrle_MrTzEi0PwBZWqS7XKkQJsuDuNQ7kKbbCpewK9V_VA9Y0y7BIdY8QI2okLkAtokHEEmW7om7p-Zxz8-sfoBRh_Aqois6PPniuZLq7V1WIKhZihb1QK8h3Rg/s400/IMG_2611.JPG" /></a></div>Jenniferhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10713019875140952664noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-896641569491365985.post-91679950828077482822009-08-30T21:58:00.002-06:002009-08-30T22:03:22.168-06:00I Love This Stage!7/31/2009<br /><br /><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgKzu6ecqg81snJ3OJ3HQ_zilUf_m3Y39t9p14KVfxOWmgvIRwlZGtMp8nnJuoZsoFIxFflYaHLr3qc1U8o1iK5WeqWLqCSWSEfmXMBHklnTypTJQF4IWbBBIkmMIKoo2dPqYknrXntrE7S/s1600-h/IMG_2591.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 300px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5375972518730988626" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgKzu6ecqg81snJ3OJ3HQ_zilUf_m3Y39t9p14KVfxOWmgvIRwlZGtMp8nnJuoZsoFIxFflYaHLr3qc1U8o1iK5WeqWLqCSWSEfmXMBHklnTypTJQF4IWbBBIkmMIKoo2dPqYknrXntrE7S/s400/IMG_2591.JPG" /></a> <div><br /><iframe allowfullscreen='allowfullscreen' webkitallowfullscreen='webkitallowfullscreen' mozallowfullscreen='mozallowfullscreen' width='320' height='266' src='https://www.blogger.com/video.g?token=AD6v5dy8FT0CdQSji6P-hHyAJmLcuyOv0dLSFU2FyLT1pTSUwpFf71FmFX09IaJmCIx_6XGzvxzsb0WZ_SS0nA1JJA' class='b-hbp-video b-uploaded' frameborder='0'></iframe></div></div>Jenniferhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10713019875140952664noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-896641569491365985.post-1277699092617526022009-08-30T21:16:00.004-06:002009-08-30T21:57:18.649-06:00Friends7/27/09 Kristi, Ali and I went to high school together.

We had not gotten to hang out pretty much since right after the mission. For those of you who don't know, Muli and I served together 3 different times in Florida, in 3 different areas for a total of 7 1/2 months. I love her! We got married about a month apart, but she was never able to get pregnant. That is her sweet little Brooke that her and her husband were able to adopt from Tonga earlier this year - such an amazing story and I am so happy for her. Thanks for coming to visit us!<br /><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhGFw7cBBH5daCKlOXbT7m3UuubFConlpiTHwFRMkX4amInFk660Unw4N2hAqeNWKrz5U48ER2GseSV2lFtQ6YcDHIr4pbAH8MXjoxZxJynaltNzDX3iGzCo5Z3a3s42UA3ClH2WkwZo7Gq/s1600-h/IMG_2580.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 300px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5375962363062289682" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhGFw7cBBH5daCKlOXbT7m3UuubFConlpiTHwFRMkX4amInFk660Unw4N2hAqeNWKrz5U48ER2GseSV2lFtQ6YcDHIr4pbAH8MXjoxZxJynaltNzDX3iGzCo5Z3a3s42UA3ClH2WkwZo7Gq/s400/IMG_2580.JPG" /></a> </div></div></div></div>Jenniferhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10713019875140952664noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-896641569491365985.post-79423213526400578602009-08-30T20:46:00.005-06:002009-08-30T21:57:01.181-06:00Grandpa Benich's 80th Birthday7/25/09 So the main reason I ended up in Flagstaff in July with my 3 kiddos was for Grandpa's 80th birthday celebration. He is my grandpa on my mom's side, and is my only living grandfather. He loves to tell stories and has a lot of interesting ones to share! He has been an amazing gardener for as long as I can remember, and has served the Lord faithfully working in temple and spent a lot of time with the scouts back in the day. Happy Birthday Grandpa!<br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEioPdxbp2N6OU14VsxMT_HXmVw9yu9VjDhD6hRgh2XBNW6GiHeD_x2WxHyuADjIosaRR_bdDzQsvbngAgr8z_9gP1fWkV0CVGnIF3Cfx10bg4GYxJQ7k8KH3bZglH8U-Tm_W_FQUGxwSOdV/s1600-h/IMG_2510.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 300px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5375955464748001602" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEioPdxbp2N6OU14VsxMT_HXmVw9yu9VjDhD6hRgh2XBNW6GiHeD_x2WxHyuADjIosaRR_bdDzQsvbngAgr8z_9gP1fWkV0CVGnIF3Cfx10bg4GYxJQ7k8KH3bZglH8U-Tm_W_FQUGxwSOdV/s400/IMG_2510.JPG" /></a>My Grandma and Grandpa had 4 more great-grandchildren at the beginning of the year. Macy was January 13th, Levi January 26th, Emma February4th, and Breelee was April 7th. Sooo cute, aren't they?

It seems that most of my family and friends who have given birth within the last year all had baby girls - except for me! (While I wouldn't trade Levi for <em>anything, </em>I do occasionally stick a bow & headband on him - but he still looks like a boy!)<br /><br />Here's Alaina with a <a href="http://bugaboogirlbows.blogspot.com/search/label/Tiny%20Boutique%20Hair%20Bows">Tiny Boutique </a>in shocking pink w/white polka dots.<br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEha78Nfp9b_oA4PAXI12LSh0-_K8fPtxduWqApWxaVtV8berNhNASfAzHgRcAwOSrm-SwyiwtUsrdV2VUnnCGVKL9hV6wPLoU3lzFLAQgukn0-dd6g-RbpBj87TRvJe1VLfOevSEQoctN1A/s1600-h/IMG_2373.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5363367598909517810" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 267px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 400px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEha78Nfp9b_oA4PAXI12LSh0-_K8fPtxduWqApWxaVtV8berNhNASfAzHgRcAwOSrm-SwyiwtUsrdV2VUnnCGVKL9hV6wPLoU3lzFLAQgukn0-dd6g-RbpBj87TRvJe1VLfOevSEQoctN1A/s400/IMG_2373.JPG" border="0" /></a><br />Emma with a pink <a href="http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?listing_id=14727178">Nylon/Lycra Headband </a>and <a href="http://bugaboogirlbows.blogspot.com/search/label/Medium%20Boutique%20Hair%20Bows">Medium Boutique </a>bow w/pink daisies.<br /><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj1VfLd8oC5RTL6XCtRan38FOrEEOhtrTAYTyDhgI_6t0fblmKoQ77YVBHe_o2gHj8J2KxvKu_SQQObQrG_4-nqbUpIH6YRglayRr2dWYVXwiYa8vcqgWs1dlx-MVebI5QRUA0RcdlDov6G/s1600-h/IMG_2408.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5363367596515699970" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 267px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 400px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj1VfLd8oC5RTL6XCtRan38FOrEEOhtrTAYTyDhgI_6t0fblmKoQ77YVBHe_o2gHj8J2KxvKu_SQQObQrG_4-nqbUpIH6YRglayRr2dWYVXwiYa8vcqgWs1dlx-MVebI5QRUA0RcdlDov6G/s400/IMG_2408.JPG" border="0" /></a><br />Emma with a shocking pink <a href="http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?listing_id=14727178">Nylon/Lycra Headband </a>and <a href="http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?ref=vl_other_1&listing_id=17249253">Small Boutique </a>w/neopolatin dots.<br /><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhOHk0ScD33YQFn1-s4QKW5usGVMwRoBxw2Yyq1ZhL7fpcyttwKFy5IMOW0ZCzC4tSixVj1rq1xo4mD5ZB-cljlOXzy8D9p1bNjMFpaUsVGomm9fEmAnHAiG0DRYlavUhusL1TrL1Pyd5Ef/s1600-h/IMG_2430.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5363367586613175410" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 268px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 400px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhOHk0ScD33YQFn1-s4QKW5usGVMwRoBxw2Yyq1ZhL7fpcyttwKFy5IMOW0ZCzC4tSixVj1rq1xo4mD5ZB-cljlOXzy8D9p1bNjMFpaUsVGomm9fEmAnHAiG0DRYlavUhusL1TrL1Pyd5Ef/s400/IMG_2430.JPG" border="0" /></a><br />Emma in shocking pink <a href="http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?listing_id=14727178">Nylon/Lycra Headband </a>and <a href="http://bugaboogirlbows.blogspot.com/search/label/Medium%20Boutique%20Hair%20Bows">Medium Boutique</a> w/hawaiian flowers.<br /><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjrL4hDcUxnuKK2V6UOMztLiDe7FDzkHXBEnV8eBuEkSzFNcHwYAeY9assceEf92XMIoEbNYk8CWDdEZQm8bDdQWVdbonlBepCtx0qg9_R-k3z31Xt5UQ6QHbSkDbcIJ5jiT2pik2gXnZuw/s1600-h/IMG_2446.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5363367582568930338" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 266px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 400px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjrL4hDcUxnuKK2V6UOMztLiDe7FDzkHXBEnV8eBuEkSzFNcHwYAeY9assceEf92XMIoEbNYk8CWDdEZQm8bDdQWVdbonlBepCtx0qg9_R-k3z31Xt5UQ6QHbSkDbcIJ5jiT2pik2gXnZuw/s400/IMG_2446.JPG" border="0" /></a><br />Just a tiny sampling of the many, many bows and ribbon choices available!<br /><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5363367609574542898" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 300px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhHuFugXCwnOKBzXa6I2-T96lTC8UJCCprIE8A4bglefFI9ne9YhoOtZuVeCJVe_j3m6uSdh71YtITL4DUAsUJEoVp1t16xWDcgwOON4SNmlC6ainMMNigEK9hyphenhyphenYnvwgZFMsgT954GlYD1P/s400/IMG_2302.JPG" border="0" /></div></div></div>Jenniferhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10713019875140952664noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-896641569491365985.post-22522041458547066072009-07-10T21:57:00.000-06:002009-07-27T22:17:32.179-06:00Cow Appreciation DayThanks to <a href="http://springsbargains.com/">Carrie</a> we knew about Cow Appreciation Day at Chick-fil-a. It took a little work to convince Michael, but after that it took less than an hour to make and put on spots, head to Chick-fil-a and each receive a free combo meal. It was a little embarassing walking across the huge drive-thru line, but once inside we were right at home among plenty of cow appreciaters. Overall we had a great time - and free dinner!<br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjXwEqx-NHnj-FxUugLiNwh7HMdSh2Hu_2FTtHK1Tb8HrfChtikAOQRWPymgqUnPMvo35vd54564utXUwwRas6fbgHtZlBChCV3mRSYhyphenhyphenXXuNFx3Qs2x-3F64uDwsMGLQgcbSNBmgRWKKcm/s1600-h/IMG_2350.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5363358455929761698" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 300px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjXwEqx-NHnj-FxUugLiNwh7HMdSh2Hu_2FTtHK1Tb8HrfChtikAOQRWPymgqUnPMvo35vd54564utXUwwRas6fbgHtZlBChCV3mRSYhyphenhyphenXXuNFx3Qs2x-3F64uDwsMGLQgcbSNBmgRWKKcm/s400/IMG_2350.JPG" border="0" /></a><br /><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhRjemtm4Kok4MjOqjt5vJYd8RIyUdqXiXnN4pCHkNMiQj_x8aHxgMKAsE2o5MYUoA6sp7t98m6LlM5LBDZzRYV5ev55LmU10shuY7cozbCZ7EnQquhUfNhFHfX7he33PtJsF2x6sFH5Dhy/s1600-h/IMG_2349.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5363358448798542946" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 300px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhRjemtm4Kok4MjOqjt5vJYd8RIyUdqXiXnN4pCHkNMiQj_x8aHxgMKAsE2o5MYUoA6sp7t98m6LlM5LBDZzRYV5ev55LmU10shuY7cozbCZ7EnQquhUfNhFHfX7he33PtJsF2x6sFH5Dhy/s400/IMG_2349.JPG" border="0" /></a> <div><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjoZMudjgi2Xm9ZDGtCVnHoBO1rHYS5KRed_1vSuoVnjgUvuhDa-KSJMRvtTsPOJ66rbuS3xwiMScBeSMzmwAJi0YZufXaZ1678G1LWVoPxFcWGEb-1wcWXcOQyMRrqpdOhklz1dVBZ_Wb5/s1600-h/IMG_2351.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5363358431280305058" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 300px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjoZMudjgi2Xm9ZDGtCVnHoBO1rHYS5KRed_1vSuoVnjgUvuhDa-KSJMRvtTsPOJ66rbuS3xwiMScBeSMzmwAJi0YZufXaZ1678G1LWVoPxFcWGEb-1wcWXcOQyMRrqpdOhklz1dVBZ_Wb5/s400/IMG_2351.JPG" border="0" /></a></div></div></div>Jenniferhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10713019875140952664noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-896641569491365985.post-30880841658598783812009-07-07T22:19:00.003-06:002009-07-27T22:26:29.049-06:00My Happy Boy in His Favorite Place<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgouhGxJyAmGUGMRJ89WUHMkYAt82ZScofQv13I87tuLVEnsV_F3VH5Ea8eTjMXllkUa1IjLRt5JGnZrGf31dRP-adU-dd5WzFr-HrrFA5_l9Z9Sew0bKh-kq45S3micmzHv1XA3qKvu-k-/s1600-h/IMG_2307.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5363361861173279346" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 300px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgouhGxJyAmGUGMRJ89WUHMkYAt82ZScofQv13I87tuLVEnsV_F3VH5Ea8eTjMXllkUa1IjLRt5JGnZrGf31dRP-adU-dd5WzFr-HrrFA5_l9Z9Sew0bKh-kq45S3micmzHv1XA3qKvu-k-/s400/IMG_2307.JPG" border="0" /></a><br /><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi8_MIS3DDDAJsmxbwwShr09V5jmSThoD1oKNPRNvFRuVMwoVfvB33LODNwHvQPqa6s3BOUIF04x3YnU2LbQ0JuXjZGpeD-UMJ2yiOwVrlQEBa0QSRJ5Z7LUCEc11Xf2VRAGcjRWhHlyZ9M/s1600-h/IMG_2316.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5363361846965317954" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 300px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi8_MIS3DDDAJsmxbwwShr09V5jmSThoD1oKNPRNvFRuVMwoVfvB33LODNwHvQPqa6s3BOUIF04x3YnU2LbQ0JuXjZGpeD-UMJ2yiOwVrlQEBa0QSRJ5Z7LUCEc11Xf2VRAGcjRWhHlyZ9M/s400/IMG_2316.JPG" border="0" /></a><br /><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjjZCf9_EGVfenpHPlcOAWSC9zS8o0vmG9Oqu_4MAiMPgtwNMhbxgoxVomPtV3izCO5WcXmLWUYhEy-q5RhkgZuf62ng75JneG-PQADvEdtqYSXgr_k1h1akfp-FlYGgeYdLGKPb-VT6J5p/s1600-h/IMG_2319.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5363361834850779522" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 300px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjjZCf9_EGVfenpHPlcOAWSC9zS8o0vmG9Oqu_4MAiMPgtwNMhbxgoxVomPtV3izCO5WcXmLWUYhEy-q5RhkgZuf62ng75JneG-PQADvEdtqYSXgr_k1h1akfp-FlYGgeYdLGKPb-VT6J5p/s400/IMG_2319.JPG" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><br /><div></div></div></div>Jenniferhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10713019875140952664noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-896641569491365985.post-33002453388552876912009-07-05T22:06:00.004-06:002009-09-28T00:27:50.333-06:00Lee Family ReunionI really need to get to bed, but I wanted to take a moment to reflect on the wonderful week we just had. On Tuesday we headed up to Estes Park for Michael's family reunion. His mom passed away 9 years ago, and the reunion is for her parents and their posterity. It's so wonderful to spend time with his mother's family. First of all, we got to hang out with Michael's sister Shannah, her husband Eric, and their 2 kids Dylan and Duncan. They have lived in Oregon for about 3 years, we haven't seen them for as long, and with Ashlyn being 4, this is the first time she really knows that they are her cousins. I just loved watching Dylan with Ashlyn & Lincoln - even though she is older than them (she'll be in 3rd grade this year) she was really hanging out with them and I know that Ashlyn especially loved spending time with her. It was fun to watch Duncan with his dad and boy cousins too (he'll be in 1st grad this year). We enjoyed good laughs with Eric & Shannah and can I just say that Shannah is one hot momma?!<br /><br />We haven't seen Michael's sister Kristen for a long time and we just love her to pieces. She is such a special girl - SO full of LOVE. So beautiful, so kind, so sincere. We miss living closer to her.<br /><br />Michael got to see his aunt Janet for the first time in years. She was one of his mom's closest sisters and it was so nice to talk to her, catch up, learn of the wonderful things that have happened in her life, and learn more about Michael's mom, Karen. I got to meet his cousin Melissa (Janet's oldest daughter) and her beautiful family and I just love her. She reminds me of Kristen - so full of love and goodness.<br /><br />There are many more of his wonderful family that we spent time with and we loved every minute of it. Thanks Dave for planning such a great reunion, and thanks Grandpa & Grandma Lee for having such an amazing family! We love them all!!<br /><br />I am so grateful that families can be <a href="http://www.mormon.org/learn/0,8672,1456-84,00.html">together forever</a>!Jenniferhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10713019875140952664noreply@blogger.com4
