Mother,

Happy Mother's Day!
Thank-you for all you've done for me throughout the years.

You are a wonderful Mother. You sacrificed a lot for us. You bathed us and clothed us. You rocked us to sleep and kissed us when we cried.
You supported us in all we wanted to do and provided us with wonderful memories.
And now that I am grown I see you as one of my Best Friends. Thank-you for being such a great Mother and Grandmother. I love you!

Happy Birthday J-doggggg

yo yo yo Jeremy. Happy Birthday! I hope you had a great day celebrating your miraculous birth. Just remember you are still quite young. Don't let Terra give you such a hard time because statistically you are only 7.2% older than her. That is less than tithing!

But anyways, all in all....HAPPY BIRTHDAY! I love you.

Love,
Deano

Happy Birthday Terra!

Happy Happy Birthday Sister dear,
Happy days will come to you all year.

If I had one wish then it would be...

A HAPPY HAPPY BIRTHDAY

to you, from meeeee! :)

Happy Birthday Terra. I hope your birthday is totally awesome.

I love you!

Good Luck Delee!!

The time is almost here for Ehlana to join our family. We are all so excited and I know especially Mom can't wait to get out of the house and come visit the East Coast again. Our thoughts and prayers are with you.

I hope that everything goes well tomorrow and I can't wait to hear about my new niece! :) Love you Delee!

Funny Paul

When Neil and Stacey go bowling for getting a spare with one pin left they say, "nailed it." For a gutter ball they say, "neiled it." They were playing ball with Paul and said "neiled it" when he missed and Paul responded with "deaned it."
I can't remember all the funny things he said at dinner, but he was quite the entertainer tonight!

The Beautiful Pacific Northwest

("The Quad" at UW)

This is a little piece of the Northwest that some of you may be missing. To Neil and Stacey especially, as you are preparing to come visit. And to the sisters and brother's in law I hope it will motivate you to want to come live out here when you are done with school/becoming Dr.'s. And lastly, but not leastly, to those of the family who still live here...its just a little still shot of what we get to live in everyday. So come one and all out to Seattle and see what a beautiful place it is!...

And thanks Mom and Dad for the digital camera for Christmas! It has been a great gift! :)

Love you all!

Feelin' Country

This last weekend was pretty exciting, and a highlight was my first big concert that I went to! It was on Saturday, so unfortunately I missed priesthood (my error for not checking when I bought the tickets two months ago...). It was Rascal Flatts with Taylor Swift opening for them, a purely country event! Ashley and I had a great time and we even dressed up to show of our counry style...even though my hat looks more like a farmer hat. But hey, I am from a farm so its fitting right?? It was alot of fun, and the music was great. Our seats were not too good as you can see, but one time they went out to a mini stage in the middle and we got a better look. Take care everyone! I love you all!
