Labor Day Weekend in Idaho

Rosanne and I drove up to Idaho Labor Day weekend to visit Kevin and Becky. Our new niece Madalyn Jane was blessed that Sunday by her dad and assisted with tons of uncles.

I had a hard time choosing the best takes, so I just put all the pictures up!






Wesley is such a charmer!

Updated house picture

I know some of you wanted to see a picture of our house with the lawn all grown in, so here it is. It looked pretty bad when we first moved in but now the lawn looks great!

My Best Friend's Wedding

One of my very best friends from college got married in August. She is from Mexico and was always such a good and supportive friend. Here are a few pictures from her wedding in Salt Lake City.

I couldn't resist taking a picture of the cake
that was decorated with fresh flowers:)

Visit to Illinois

Rosanne and I made a trip out to Illinois in July. Since Mom and Dad are planning on moving back to Utah soon, this may have been our last visit. We both love Illinois and enjoyed basking in the midwestern humidity.

Me standing at my favorite place in the world, on the banks of the Mississippi river in Nauvoo, Illinois.
The beautiful Nauvoo Temple. We were able to see the Nauvoo Pageant as a family while we were in Nauvoo.

Toby was excited to see us, but you could tell he was wondering why Staci wasn't there.

Anyone want some cheese?
