One of my best Friends' Daughter got married this last week! Holy cow I can't believe how fast these kids grow up! I was fortunate enough to go to the Sealing in the San Diego Temple... what a beautiful place! I wish my whole family could have come with, but we were there barely 24 hours. Toni was my travel companion, more like my guide. She introduced me to the giant MESSY sundae, but the best thing I did was put my toes in the sand, and stand in the Ocean for about an hour, and fursure it's still my favorite place.

Loungin'...Soccer camp, and Diesel's doo.

My My writing skills are sorely lacking lately, but I am always rushing to just journal a little with our pics. So here ya go. We took the kids to the Aquatic center, it was a pretty fun pool. I hope they build a cool pool by Liberty High.***** Steph just finished soccer camp, she was too bummed about it being over, but the good news is that she'll get to scrimmage twice a week now until school starts. She did great, she won the shooting contest, considering it was co-ed and she was the youngest, we were really happy for her. And Diesel finally got groomed he looks so much better. ***** This is how UN- eventful our summer has been.

A great Talent moves to New York...

My very talented, and wonderful friend Heather is moving to New york for her Husband's Medical career. She is such a great person, and amazing photographer and we will really miss her funny personality! Thank goodness for blogging, so we can keep up!

Time with the Howe's...

We spent some quality time with Loren's Parent's and brother's, we celebrated our niece Cheyene's 3rd birthday. Good times swimmin and b-b-Qin, and 4 wheelin.

Big Boys and Baseball...

A couple of months ago Lo and Porter went to a D-Backs game, and they both had a great time. It helps that P is old enough to enjoy the actual game so the a Father/son moments are becoming more enjoyable.

The Joy Girls....

We had my nieces over last weekend. They are soo sweet and funny, we really enjoy having them around, they fit in so naturally, being girls and all... Porter likes to play with Lu, she adores him and he loves that! Cookie and Liza dissapear into thier imaginary world and we never see them unless they get hungry! Janey tags along with Em, and the big girls. So Lo and I are realizing that Lucy is the last baby for this generation, and it makes us feel old and reflective of how it seems like just yesterday, our first little girl was just a Year old. Now our last baby just really wishes that he had a little brother, but that's not happenin. We will just have to have our 4 handsome nephews come down for a weekend before school starts up again.

Our gutar hero....

Our little guy is pretty entertaining to watch on G.H., He really rocks out, and he knows the lyrics to his favorite songs, for instance "Metallica's , One". I know, *** I never in my wildest dreams thought that any child of mine would know a Metallica song! Anyway he's pretty good and our family has enjoyed the WII with other families for a fun activity. Some of our good friends got a Wii recently, but do not have "Guitar Hero", so we left it with them for a couple of days and they were extremely addicted afterward, or at least my girl Nancy was! here is a picture of the Thank You card they gave us, I always knew she was very talented and creative, but I had know idea about her rock STAR tendencies....
