World Travelers

Hey everyone! Sorry I haven't posted for so long. I just got back from an amazing trip to Holland with Brody, Corianne, and her son Teegan. We met my grandparents there, who are taking their last trip back to Holland. They say their getting too old to go again, so Corianne and I wanted to go back with them and see all the places they've been too, and meet family we haven't seen before. We also got to see where my dad was born. We stayed for two weeks in Den Haag with my Aunt Maud. She was so funny. We were treated like queens by all my relatives, and they were so excited to have the babies around. Traveling to Europe unleashed a travel bug in me, and I can't wait to go back. Next time I'll bring the whole family though, because I was pretty homesick.

Utah volleyball team

Taking a break in between games for some really healthy food.
Diane, Tara, and Loreene, hanging out in the back seat.
I was so excited to be able to play with my old volleyball rec team. I've missed them so much since we've moved. I got to play with them for their first day of tournament, and we won both games. It was so fun. It felt just like old times. Oh, and I'm feeling nice, so I'm not going to post some of the pictures I got of Brenda and Loreene. They were pretty hot though.
Taya, Loreene, Brenda, Bubba, me, Tara, Di, and Kim. Love you girls, and good luck next week!

We'll Miss You Opa

After 15 years of being bedridden, my Grandpa passed away peacefully Saturday, April 26th, 2008. Now he can finally be at rest. My grandma has been by his side and taken care of him for so long. I'm so grateful to be a part of their lives and so proud to be their granddaughter. It was nice to go to the funeral and hear stories about my grandpa that I haven't heard before. It was also good to be with my family. My brother, Brandon, flew in from Memphis to be with us. I love having all my brothers and sister together.

Marlee's first bike



Marlee just got her first bike. She's actually pretty good already. Now all we need is some warm weather so she can ride it more. It's so funny being back in Idaho and seeing people wearing shorts and t-shirts as soon as it hits forty degrees. You gotta love it.

New pictures of our house

So here's some pics of the inside of our new house. I painted the kithchen and dining room and then decided to go on strike from paint. You'll notice there's no pictures of upstairs, because we haven't done anything with our rooms. Hopefully sometime soon I'll get around to it. Oh, and just ignore the fact that my sign on the wall is slanted, and Holls, I'm not as crafty as you. I bought my calendar
