Family Fun

I have to comment on our family picture above... I don't remember why we are all laughing, but it looks like it has something to do with Gavin. Brian seems oblivious to what is going on and Elise rarely looks right at the camera, but there she is looking straight at it. The whole picture just makes me smile. I chose this picture because it represents our family. Good Times! Like the caption says...We may not have it all together, but together we have it all. I love you guys!! I am blessed with an AWESOME family. We did this one on purpose for fun. So where did Tyler go??


We had alot of things going on the end of January. Mike and I went with Tyler to the Sundance Festival. He had been going all week and wanted us to see 2 of the movies. So we went to Park City bright and early Saturday morning, Jan 24. We saw Cold Souls and Taking Chance. Both movies were very good. I LOVED "Taking Chance". It is an HBO movie so it won't be in theaters. It will be on HBO Feb 23, if you get the chance to see it... do it! FYI... you will need kleenex!!

Jason and Jen came on Thurs, Jan. 29, for Gavin's final adoption proceedings. We enjoyed alot of family time. We spent Friday at Kiddie Kandids trying to get kids to cooperate for some pictures. Saturday Jason made us a yummy Brazilian dinner. Sunday we went to church and snuck away to Gardner Village for some family pictures and that evening was the Super Bowl. On Monday, we had the privilege of going to the Draper Temple open house. The temple is beautiful. As we waited to board the bus we all got a little restless, but once we got there, even the little kids seem to realize the specialness of where we were. I love the temple. It is a place of beauty and peace. Monday and Tuesday were special days for us. More on that coming later!
