Bishop Largey

Our family is in town because Jeremy has been extended a calling to be the Bishop of our ward at church.  It's a pretty hefty calling, and he's a bit intimidated, but that's what prayer is for!

Thank you to all who came to support him.  He felt really loved.

Eight is Great

Grant chose to get baptized this month.  

We are so very proud of him!

Thanks to all of our wonderful family for coming to support Grant.

Fanning the Flames on the Fourth

Well, we hunkered down inside to escape the heat on the fourth of July this year and played cards and games with our fun family in CA. No one complained too much about missing the fire in the sky, but we did have fun with poppers outside that night.

Loves from Grandma Leann

No one can resist getting loved on by Grandma. Who would want to? James just enjoys playing hard to get!

We'll miss you Largey's... and POOL

The kids swam nearly every day we we in CA. And when they didn't get to they usually grumbled about it. Besides getting to visit with family I think swimming is their next favorite thing to do on vacation. Mine is playing games and seeing new sights.

Snugglefest

Grandma Leann and Amber were able to come up for Carter's baptism. They made Carter a snugly, soft, warm blanket that he immediately fell in love with. He has slept with it ever since.

In our family Carter is the "Snuggle Bun", Madison is the "Snuggle Loaf", Grant is the "Snuggle Muffin", James is the "Snuggle Bean", and Jeremy and I are the "Snuggle Pa & Snuggle Ma". We are that serious about snuggling.

Hangin' at Grandma's

The kids love switching it up and staying at Grandma Leann's and Grammie Terrie's when we're visiting CA. We're so fortunate that they live in the same area so we can see them both when we go down for a visit.

A bit about what we've been doing in CA.... We've been playing games, reading Fablehaven, watching movies, doing puzzles, trading Pokemon, playing with Eva and Alex, eating yummy food, celebrating birthday's (Amber and Jason's), SWIMMING (sometimes twice a day), and just having a great time. My kids LOVE to go to CA. Amber is getting some birthday loves from her brothers in the photo above.

Hair- Here, There, and Everywhere

Lots of hair maintenance projects going on during vaca. We must look our best! Madison got her hair cut especially short. She keeps shaking her head and saying how much lighter it feels without her long locks. We also said goodbye to G.Grandpa's beard, and said hello to Grandma Leann's curls.

Quality James time

James likes spending time with his newly adoring fans-cousins, uncles, aunts, and especially Grandma Leann. He loves to go exploring on his hands and knees and pretty much has to have a chaperone wherever he goes now. It's a hard knock life to be adored by all.
