Random pictures from Utah

Eating watermelon on the back step. It is actually a little cold here this week that is why they are all bundled in winter clothes

The Oquirrh mountain temple. It was just built and we went through the open house. It is a beautiful temple

The Aplanalps and Averetts having lunch at Target.

Jake and his best friend from high school Addison and our kids. If only we lived by each other, our kids would have so much fun with each other!!!

The wedding

My brother got married last week. It was a beautiful wedding. The kids looked great in their dresses and little suits. I am excited to have Brittany as my new sister-in-law!

The scenery at the wedding reception was gorgeous!

We kept Brielle entertained with cups of ice. It's amazing how far that will go with her.

Brielle and my nephew Kru

My cute brothers!

Birthday fun

I turned the big 32 the other day and was able to celebrate it with my family minus Jake who is home in Florida making the big bucks to keep us out here in Utah. Raegan was upset I wasn't having a birthday party. I told her when you're old you don't do that anymore. Not sure she quite understood. My mom made me a homemade red velvet cake (that is my latest craving, no I'm not pregnant). It was yummy. I went to see "UP" with Raegan, Logan and my grandma. It was a cute show. We also went to Maddox with all my brothers(minus Wade) and that was fun. I love Maddox' shrimp steak and rolls, there isn't much better. Thanks to my family for making it a fun day. It was good to spend it with family.

I got a yucky cold that day so that is why I look half dead in all the pictures.

Father's Day

We had a Father's day lunch with my mom's family. I was so happy to be able to spend a holiday with family even though we missed Jake a ton!!!This is crazy Brielle....we made homemade rootbeer and she went around stealing everyone's cup to get their drink. She ended up soaking wet with rootbeer and slobber so she went shirtless the rest of the day.

Grandpa Zundel and Logan....two little buddies.

Me and my cousin Keelie getting sung to because our birthday's are within a week of each other.

Those of us left that couldn't move because we ate too much. Sorry for all of you that left before we remembered to take pictures.

Raegan and her cousins.....

Some church pictures

Logan trying to pose like Raegan

I tried to curl Brielle's hair. It stayed for about half of sacrament.

Karaoke Professionals

Jake's work had a picnic and the kids had a lot of fun getting their face painted and being karoke singers! We had to be bussed to the park because there wasn't parking and I think that was Logan's favorite part, riding the bus.....

Raegan's last game

Raegan played her last t-ball game and was awarded the most improved player. She has come very far. She can even hit the ball now without the tee. Way to go Raeggie!

We had to bribe Brielle to sit in her stroller, a blue sucker did the trick! What a cute little skunk!

The last few weeks

My kids posing at Sea World

This is how we started potty training Logan. He would sit on the potty and think that is what it meant to go the bathroom. He finally sat there for an hour and understood what it meant to go to the bathroom! You gotta love it!

Random pictures

Raegan, Logan and Sarah decorating cookies with my cake decorating items. Needless to say, have some cookies with that frosting.

For a primary activity, Raegan was called on a mission. (Members of our church, including Jake, voluntarily spend 2 years teaching people about our church) They got to fly on a plane, get a passport and everything. She was called to the Malaga Spain mission. She had a great time learning how to say things in Spanish. Jake was a mission president for the Colombia mission and he taught the kids how to knock on doors and do door approaches. Fun way for them to get excited about sharing the Gospel.

Big graduation

Raegan graduated from VPK (preschool) this week. She was very excited and kept saying, "When is the funeral going to start?" Not sure where she got funeral from, but I thought it was funny. She did a good job and we are excited for her to be ready for kindergarten!

Camping pictures

We went camping a few weeks ago and we had a great time. It was a little chilly at night, but we still had fun.

Jake telling funny stories around the fire.
