Sunshine

It's been ages since we've seen the sun. So to celebrate its short lived return we went for a long family walk and soaked up the rays.

bear lake Part I

our annual family reunion 

was held at Bear Lake this year.

9 kids

7 spouses

17 grandkids

and one "papa"

made for a full cabin

but we wouldn't have it any other way.

It was definitely a time of healing.

We did a lot of laughing and crying.

Stories were told and Joe's mom was remembered

It was a really really good weekend.

our weekend has been full of loving messages from leaders of our church, 

potty training, wet undies, and cute baby faces.

watching, I mean sleeping through conference

from diapers to underwear

there has been many wet foot prints to this potty (pee footprints) 

i hope your weekend has been as wonderful as ours has
