One of the several times we were in Carlsbad over the summer for like 2 days at a time, I think this was Memorial Day... in the pic above, Jay is cracking up because a wave just got us while we were waiting for whichever kid to snap the pic.
We went to the beach with Holly and Grady, Mary, my Mom, Tracy and her girls. Look at all the 'moms' it takes to put suntan lotion on Grady. hahaha.
Rebekah spent a little time with Holly and Grady after Girl's Camp. I think it was the single biggest self-esteem booster for her EVER, because Grady likes HER. Will let her hold him and help take care of him. She ate it up.
A boy and his dog.... gross.
Bek and David posing in some impromptu 'shade" with Fritz.
David finally grew taller than Aunt Jennifer. A true 'milestone' in his life.:)
See that guy in the top left corner? Yeah.... he jumped off that cliff into the water below. This is at Blue Ridge Resevoir here is AZ, on his first High Adventure Trip. The second one was in Lake Powell, where he did more cliff jumping, with our new ward in Carlsbad.
Jay LOVES Paradise Bakery and our friends over there made an awesome giant cookie for him on Father's Day.
David and his friend Gage both made the All-Star team and got Home Run trophies.
One of the times Jay's Dad, Grandpa Johnny, came to visit, he left a pair of pants and his hat. Eric thought it would be funny to dress up like him....see if he noticed. Yep.... and Eric thought it was SO funny.
This is the cake and flowers that Jay and the kids made for me for Mother's Day. YUMMY! Also in the background is proof that our house use to be a home before it all got boxed up. We have been living in a 'house' since early June.... and are eager to turn our new place into a 'home'.It sounds dumb, but living in a 'house' and not a 'home' for the past couple of months has really taken a toll. It's like you don't feel right or something. I don't know..... just sayin'.
More pics later.......gotta go pack some more:(

I loved looking at your summer pics and I also enjoyed reading about your summer. Your family looks like a great group!
I feel what your saying about a house and home. There is a difference for sure. I remember that feeling when we were building the house we are in now. It's an unsettling feeling. Hopefully soon you'll be all moved and have a home.
Take Care,
