I'm back....at least for now :)

Well, we are back from summer vacation #1, just in time to to laundry, put together a primary activity, and pack up for summer vacation #2! FUN!

We had a great time seeing family and doing a little camping. It was beautiful, green, mountainous, and cool.

Coming home on a day when it was 101 degrees was...well, almost fun. :)

....................................................................

While visiting with my family we found a fabulous little photo spot.

Here are a couple of shots that I got of the kiddos:

And here is my sister, Alyssa, who just left on her mission in St. Louis for the LDS church today.

I sure am going to miss her...but I am also really proud of her!

She is going to be a wonderful missionary - she has such a strong testimony of the Savior and of the gospel!

She wanted a few pre-mission pictures before she left so we had a little photo shoot.

It was a lot of fun to take pictures of someone who sits still and cooperates! :)

Oh, and here is a picture of the quilts that I just finished for the kiddos beds. A couple of members of the fam wanted to see them, so here you go!

I got the idea from a Pottery Barn catalog. They look great from a distance, but don't look too closely....my quilt binding skills are severely lacking! :)

HAVE A GOOD ONE!
