Kodi was a bridesmaid!

This weekend Kodi was a bridesmaid for one of her friends in Oregon! She came for her visit to get her dress for this wedding! Dress was beautiful, and Dane loved the bride. Also Miss Meryn was the prettiest!

Kodi's visit!

They all went home yesterday afternoon, so I've been upset and depressed all day. Mostly I've slept~ It was a wonderful visit. Meryn is just the chubbiest little girl, and smiles all the time. Dane said his heart was broken when he got home last night. Wants to ask Santa for his family for Christmas. They just love being around family, and cousins. He and Cole got along great~ It was fun to watch them play. We went to the Musical Instrument Museum. It was so much fun. Just amazing huge place~ Uncle Kendall came from WI to see everyone. He's a really interesting man~ Mr Talan is very happy, in his sunglasses! Not sure why! Miss all of them..!! Trenton and Kolby and Mallory had lots of fun~ I love that they are such close cousins ~

Tomorrow is the Day!!

Tomorrow at this time, I will be at the airport, picking up Kodi and the family, and loving on Miss Meryn~ I can hardly wait!

3 days!!

I'm counting down days! Can hardly wait to get my arms around Meryn..and of course, Trenton & Dane too~ But mostly Meryn..so afraid she won't get to know me, then they'll be headed back~ I hate this..Wish so badly that they lived here in AZ~

Trevor's Pinewood Derby

Trevor had his first Pinewood Derby, and won 2nd place! He was so thrilled. He jumped up and down, and gave everyone high 5"s. So glad he is in scouts now~

Kodi is coming home!

Kodi and family will be here in AZ on Feb 11th. We're counting down the days! So eager to get my hands on Meryn. I have diapers, lotion, body wash and a complete wardrobe waiting for her, so Kodi doesn't even have to bring anything! Ha! Trenton is excited ..he can hardly wait to see the twins, and eat out every single meal. Ha! They don't have much to choose from in Klamath Falls! ha! Dane will enjoy all his cousins, and he especially enjoys Miss Mallory~ ha!

The Mays

So sad when I look back at old pictures~ Mike and Susan were our good friends who we first met in Albuquerque, New Mexico, when Myrle was going to College. We were in the same wonderful ward, and Susan and I were both counselors in RS and Myrle and Mike were counselors in Sunday School. They eventually moved back to AZ, where they were from, as we did. We continued our friendship. She had Candy in Albuquerque, and I had Kevin~ She went on to have 3 more babies, and I went on to have 5 more. We had family home evenings together, trips together, holiday dinners and just lots of fun~ Eventually her husband Mike cheated on her and they divorced. It was awful~ we were all shocked~ She has since remarried to a wonderful man, and we remain good friends, but it just isn't the same! Sad what divorce does to family and friends~

Taryn's Birthday

Taryn will be 40 years old tomorrow~ Can't believe I have a 40 yr old! ha! Never will I forget how happy I was when I got pg with her, and then gave birth to my little girl. We had tried for 5 years to have another baby, after Kevin. She was a beautiful baby girl and has grown up to be a beautiful mommy, wife and daughter! Miss her so much. Wish they lived closer~
