Happy 30th Birthday Justin! We went on our Annual trip to Aunt Julie's for the 4th of July and for Justin's Birthday. Justin's entire family goes up and spends some time up there. It is definatly a great way to get out of the heat. The kids have so much fun, we hardly even see them unless they need to tell on one of their cousins, or if they need something to eat. We went to the Show Low parade, saw fireworks, the boys went fishing and actually got alot of fish-so they were pretty excited about that. The weather was beautiful,except we got a few pretty good rain storms. Hope everybody had a good fourth of July.

Some of the things we did for the month of June. Happy Birthday to Tyler hope you had a great 8th Birthday.

Houston has learned how to ride his bike with out training wheels! He is definatly all boy he petals as fast has he can and then puts on the breaks so he can see is skid marks.

A Bitter sweet day for our family! Chad is moving to Chicago!!! Chad decided that he was in love and needed to move to Chicago to be with his girlfriend, so Stacey flew out and they were making there looong drive to Chicago. I could have never made that drive but three days later they finally made it to there new home. Although we will all miss him, we do know that it is the best thing for him. Congratulations Chad and Stacey. (Chad moved at the end of May and they just announced there engagement)
We are so Happy for you guys-We love you!

Chad, Stacey, Houston, and Ashlyn

Chad and Stacey will probably kill me for putting this picture on here since they were not picture perfect.

Ashlyn's 1st Birthday

Ashlyn turned one years old on May 29th and I am just getting around to posting her pictures. We just had a small party for her with our families and a few friends. I think Justin and Brian had more fun at the place than the kids did. It was a good day the kids and a blast. Happy Birthday my sweet Baby girl! We love you.
