Girl Trip!

Last week we took a girl trip to St. George.  Brayden wasn't too uspet... he got to stay home and take care of Russ. :)   We wanted to see The Little Mermaid at the Tuacahn and celebrate Meg's Birthday!  We already have plans to go to next season's Aladdin!

This is taken in the St. George Tabernacle.

We were on the last row... which worked out perfectly!  We all had such a great time and really enjoyed the show!

Instead of cake (we had cheesecake later)  Meg enjoyed her slurpee!

See Ya... In TWO Years!

The drop off at the MTC is no longer the cry fest that it used to be... (that happens in the car afterwards!) It is literally 5 minutes from start to finish.  I think it is easier on both parties!

Last hugs! (I did get one... just not a picture of one!)

These two pictures were taken right before and right after the nervous little wave...  It is so great that the other missionaries are there to help them check in and everything!

ON A SIDE NOTE... I DID GET TO TALK TO ZACK THIS MORNING!  HE IS ON HIS WAY!  HE SAID THAT HE IS A LITTLE NERVOUS, BUT EXCITED TOO!

The Night Before...

The night before a Missionary leaves for the MTC can be a little hectic... BUT we had been gathering everything that he would need for the past 3 months.  Zack took a picture of his stash  before he packed it.  He was set apart as a missionary too.  It was nice to have Grandparents and Aunt Sandy there too.

Fall Pictures 2011

We had BIG plans...

It's the Monday before Zack leaves for the MTC...  we had plans to go to Crystal Springs....  We are all ready to go, some even in their swimsuits... I call to confirm their hours... ALL the slides are closed for the day... QUICKLY come up with a new plan!!!  

We talked about going to a local swimming pool, miniature golfing, bowling but we couldn't agree... SO we ended up going to a movie.  "Cowboys & Aliens"... the trailers that I had seen looked ok... everyone hurry up and get into the car...  the opening scenes are blood and gore and it gets worst from there!  I do not recommend this film.

These pictures are obviously the happy before the movie starts faces!!!

Zack's Farewell

We had Zack's farewell a couple of weeks ago (July 31st).  He did such a great job on his talk.... no flippin' or slang of any kind :)

He already acts like a missionary! 

We will miss his smile around here!

July 24th

This year for the 24th we went down to Aunt Becky's (inlaw's) to swim with the family.  Sadly these are the only photo's that I took that day!  I don't know what it is with holidays and my family this year.... but Megan is getting nervous for Labor Day!  It's her turn for an accident! :(
