Keifer and Carli

On Friday, Keifer and my friend Carli went riding to Sycamore. It was so hot that Bob and I met them at Saguaro lake with the jet skiing.

My sweet escape!

My first stop on the trip was down to the bay area for a baby shower for Janelle, Jeremy's wife and new baby, Amara.

Bob and Keifer off to Rochester

Bob and Keifer took the night flight Wednesday to Rochester for a big golf weekend with Grandpa Doug, Uncle David, Matt and Jeremy. Bad idea for them to take a night flight!!! What more do I need to say!

Justin comes home from Hawaii!

Justin was supposed to be home on Friday morning but flights were full. He made it home in time for conference. It was great to have him home. He was a little thin but his spirit was good. Ofcourse we had mexican food and roast beef and anything to get some food down him! We saw his debut on BYU TV after the Saturday session. On Sunday afternoon, Kirk, Sue, Tiffany, Cody and Alessia (Karen's daughter) came for dinner. It was fun to have the cousins all together-it's been many years.

Justin then had to leave Monday morning instead of Tuesday and it looked like he wasn't going to get a chance to go to the lake. But Keifer got up with him at 6:00 am and the two went jet skiing for a couple of hours before his 10:45 flight! What a great big brother!
It was great to have Justin home and see such growth! He even loved his room redecorated-he just stood there and said, "How elegant!"

Jet skiing and Jamon's family

On Oct 2, we went jet skiing with Jamon, Kristen and Keegan Smith. We had a great time and Mr. Keegan in a "mini-me" Jamon-style.
