Family Reunion

This last summer we went to Salt Lake City, Utah for G's family reunion. It was the first time in years that we have all been together. My parents reserved a place at "This is the Place"Heritage Park. This place was loaded with the history of our church and tons of things for the whole family to do. On the reserved day, we were there all day. We had a picnic, went on train rides, pony rides, did crafts, pet the animals,etc. We were there for a week but that wasen't long enough. I love being with my family and can't wait to see them all again. Great memories were made and will always be remembered!

Beautiful Utah!

I love this picture!

It was so hot the day we went. My mom decided to by us some ice cream to cool off. So we took the little train up to the ice cream shop and enjoyed some cones. My favorite was called playdough, it was so good I have never had it anywhere else.

I thought my mom looked so cute in her hat!

MMMMM Good Ice Cream!

One of the days we were there we went to an indoor water park. It was so fun. It had a lazy river, slides and whirlpool. The kids had a great time. They had so much fun I never got any pictures of them , just Lilly and I hung out together.

Some of the grandkids did some skits and then there were prizes. Everyone thought it was rigged because our family for some reason got most of the prizes.

All us sisters together! So which one looks the youngest?

Cute Cousins!

In Sandy where we stayed there was some hiking trails. Some were farther up then others. The guys went all the way to the top to the lake and went fishing. And then my Dad took my older sister and I about half way up the same trail the next day. It was beautiful up there, I had a feeling of peace as I looked over the green mountains knowing that this is how God tells his children he loves them. We didn't have time to go to the top but I know it would have been an adventure!

My awesome Brother!

My DAD!

About Us

K- and I met in Colorado in 1997 while I was serving a full time mission for my church. My companion and I were out tracting and we knocked on K's- door just has he was pulling up in the driveway. He thought we were the girl scouts bring him his cookies,(haha) he had ordered the month before. Once he saw who we were he let us in and we taught him the 1st discussion, and came back every week until he was baptised.

I returned home a few months later and we kept in contact. K- was very persistent and patient with me, but he finally asked me to marry him after 1 1/2 at home. We were married in 1999 in the Seattle, Bellevue Temple on April 9th. We have been married 11 years now and have lived in many places; Colorado,Conneticut,Washington, Colorado(again), and Virginia.

We currently live in Virginia. K- works for the U.S.Army Corps of Engineers Middle East District and has for the last 6 years first as a contractor then term and now perminent. He also is an E-8 in the U.S. Army reserves. He has served and worked in Iraq several times. He travels to different places on occasion, in and out of the country. He works very hard for his family and we appreciate all he does for us.

G- is a at home mom, she teaches Jazzercise at a local gym, she has been teaching for 5 years and loves it! She also teaches the youth at our church, will be subbing at the local schools and has been accepted into the Bachelors program online in the fall.

We have 2 daughters 10 yrs and the other 6 yrs they are full of lots of positive energy, they love ballet,swimming,biking, playing, and their American Girls.

B- is in fourth grade this year, she does very well. She is a very easy going child, gets along with most anyone, is very helpful at home and is a great babysitter. She loves to listen to music, dance, and is very good at it.

L- is very spunky first grader, always laughing and giggling and having fun, but also very sensitive, her drama will make her rich someday.

We also have a dog named Little Ann, she barks at everything, has more attitude then all us girls put together, and loves K- more then us. But we love her still the same, I guess;)
