Happy Graduation Jessica.



I can't believe my baby sister is graduating from High School today! Jessica is 11 years younger then me and I can still remember her as a baby. She looked just like Shirley Temple with her round face and SUPER curly locks. She was such a beautiful baby/child and was always so happy. Now she's GORGEOUS and I love how we can always have such deep conversations about anything and everything. Really... I can talk to her about anything. She's not judgemental but willing to see things at all different sides. I love her sooooo much and am very proud of her. I can't be happier that she's my sister.

Jess... I love you and am so proud of you graduating tonight! I can't wait to see you! You will go far in life if you believe in yourself and you have so much in you that is great that you SHOULD believe in yourself! Remember who you are and that I love you forever and a day. Ok... choking up here, gotta go! See you tonight!

Little Man's Play

I just can not believe that K. is already done with Kinder garden. I hate that as the older I get, the faster time flys. It's not right. It seems like just the other day is when I was moving back to Ut and K. was just 10 months. Of course that was like 5 years ago already! Jor and I went to his play and it was the cutest thing I'd ever seen! I was trying to hide while taking pictures so that others around me wouldn't get annoyed (not that I secretly cared of course) and when K. looked at me he had this huge smile on his face and started singing LOUDER and I could HEAR him from where I was sitting. I must admit, it chocked me up... Yeah, call me a baby-I don't care!

Soooooo FUNNY. Of course I'm giggling as I write this whole thing and Jor keeps asking me what I'm laughing at! LOL... I am so proud of this kid!

Photobucket
Best "Stink Eye" around eh?

Photobucket
So right now... this is by far my favorite pic of him EVER! It makes me LAUGH!

Photobucket
And of course every kid has to have a favorite Aunt Snuffy!

He reminds me a lot of his dad (my brother)when Mike was younger.

Photobucket
Of course he has to save the best smile for his mom! ;)

And this one.

Photobucket

So I finished Eclipse about 2am. I was pretty close to the end and it just started getting too intense to put down, so I didn't bother to try. Hey, did anyone else cry about Jacob in this one?! I must admit, I shed a few tears over it. Maybe because it was like 2am... At any rate, I can defiantly relate to her Jacob-I had one of those myself back in the days of high school-so maybe this is why I cried? It was a bitter sweet ending for me. Although we're all routing for our gorgeous Edward, my heart is almost leaning towards Jacob...

Is anyone else dying for the 4Th book?! We have to wait like 3 MONTHS still?! Bummer....

Oakland LDS Temple

On our way home from San Francisco, we stopped by the Oakland Temple. I've seen this temple in pictures before but never thought it was that nice of a temple, but when we were there walking around there was an incredible feeling. I think this temple is beautiful and loved being here. I'm so grateful I had the chance to get away and see all the amazing things out in California. I loved being able to be with Alison again. I loved that I got to meet Colleen-she's a cool girl with a good head on her shoulders. I miss you girls! Thanks for a great trip!

Brotherly Love...

I actually took these the day that I took Kade and Jessica's Engagement Pictures. Jory is very much a family man and misses his family a lot right now. We don't get to go up to Idaho very much anymore due to the greedy, money hungry, gas natzi pigs-but we sure love when we get to see them!

I LOVE IT!!! This picture makes me laugh so hard! Love Kade's face and Jory... well, that's Jory for ya! (Which is why my sisters like to call him a teddy bear!)LOL...

Alcatraz

Call me a freak, but I LOVED Alcatraz! It was amazing and the history was really cool. It was interesting to get a tiny glimpse of what prison life is like. Nothing joyful I'm sure.

Yuck... I would hate to have to live in a place like this!

This was just a tad creepy to me

This inmate was an incrediable artist, but the Wardon didn't like his work so he took away all his supplies and stuff. Sad...

A little Prison Break posing... Eat your heart out Micheal Schofield!

This was the morgue. Looks rather joyful in there eh?

This is what I saw coming off the ferry and his words stopped me dead in my tracks. I think he may just be right! What can be worth the price you pay to be locked up in Prison?!
