Back to Portland we go...



It was so weird to go back to Portland as a visitor. That was the first time it really hit that we don't live there anymore. Odd. It was great though. We got to see most everyone, with a few exceptions. (Sorry Denzie!) It was a fun trip, and we got to really enjoy our familes. These pics are from Jacks birthday, he got to spend it surrounded by people who really love him the most. What a lucky guy!

Grandma Julie comes to town






We were lucky enough to have Grandma Julie come and visit this weekend!! She really came to see cousin Everett, but we got to see her too!! We did all sorts of fun things, like going to the zoo, going to feed the ducks (Jack's favorite) and reading green eggs and ham! That was Daddy's favorite book as a kid, (he even translated it into Italian on his mission!) and it's quickly becoming Harris's favorite too! Grandma was able to give Jack his Birthday present, a BIG rocking horse! Jack LOVES it! He comes downstairs and immediatly says "HORSEY!" he wants to ride it before breakfast even!
The bummer with Jack turning two is of course, the terrible twos. He has figured out that fit-throwing is a great way to get attention. Although Mommy usually just walks away, there are times when she just can't help but laugh. The pic of him on the floor is mid fit-throw. Too funny...

Wow. Here we are again...




Ok, so I thought I would do better, but again it's been like 6 months. SORRY! Let's try again to do better...
We are still in Idaho, and doing really well. We are looking at moving in July to Lehi. We can't wait! The only drawback is Kim and Jared won't be there to play Settlers with! We have had so much fun with them, and their new addition Everett! We will miss them all terribly. BUT. The good news is the kids will have cousins in Utah too. Michael and Karla live in Orem and Kasey is at BYU. We also have some of the best friends we've ever had there, so life will be good!!
Here's some more updated pics, and I will try SO hard to be better! I PROMISE KENON!!!
