Amaing wedding!!



Lots of Beach and Sun!


Pat and Jo's Wedding and our Family Reunion


We just returned from Pensacola Beach after a fantastic week with our family reunion and the wedding of Pat and Jo! Their wedding was amazing, especially their beautiful vows they made to each other!! It was so wonderful to have everyone of our children present, most of their spouses, and most of our grandchildren. Even Aunt Sue and Uncle Doug came, and that made it extra special. The following pictures speak for themselves!!

Dad and Molly arrived in Idaho on July 1st. They were able to meet little Aubrey for the first time. We all had fun in Idaho together, and it was so hard to say good-bye. Then we went to Dallas on the 4th of July. There we got to meet Jaxon Robert and loved every minute of our stay there with Rob, Cham, Lexi, Jax, Pat and Jo. From there Dad and I went to NJ to see Uncle Bob and Tom's family. Uncle Bob got the great news that he could ditch his brace and his wheelchair because his leg has heeled so nicely. We got to spend the whole day with Jadyn and Kaya, and then got to go out to dinner with Tom and Rox and the girls. Molly, in the meantime was having a marvelous time at Especially for Youth, a giant youth conference in VA. I caught a plane Tuesday, July 14th, out of Philly to Arkansas to be with Laura for the arrival of their second little boy. We are now patiently waiting. Dad is picking up Molly in VA, and then next week he and Molly are going to our Stake's youth conference in Kirtland, Ohio. Then they are joining me in Arkansas to meet our 24th grandchild!! We are excited to see Uncle Doug and Aunt Sue while we are here in Arkansas. And Julie's family is swinging by here to meet her 12th nephew on their way back to Oklahoma. Soon there will be 24 cousins total - 12 boys and 12 girls!!!


Having fun on Rigby Lake!
