Pictures of James



We wanted to share the pictures of James we received. The one that is close up accompanied an email James sent to us and that is why we decided to bring him home. But as you figured out by his email that we sent out last night, he no longer is interested in coming home. He continues to get stronger and is back in the field and working. The Lord truly is merciful and generous with His blessings.

From Kansas


On Monday we got back from our house hunting trip to Kansas. You may notice none of these pictures are of houses. We did put an offer on a house but someone else bought it out from under us so we didn't include the pictures of that house. While we were there Jason had to have a physical so this is Paisley hanging out in the car while we wait.

This is one of the McPherson water towers. They are all over the place and so that was a new thing for us.

This is a cute family picture in our hotel room.

This is Jason in front of his new office. We went and took a tour of the plant. It looks like a great new place to work! We are very excited!

This is the view from the "interstate". There is pretty much nothing in Kansas. You drive for a very long time and only see this view.

Lauren's Prom Picture



Here are some pics of Lauren from her senior prom. Isn't she lovely? Prom was at the Ocean Institute in Dana Point. Lewis and I took her and her friend John down there. We had dinner at a very expensive restaurant/resort that would have cost us about $150 if we didn't have the gift certificate we had gotten at the ward scout auction. Dinner was yummy, daughter was safe and it was a good night all around.

Thanks for cleaning up the blog!

Don't know if it was Stef or Jason, but thanks to who ever cleaned it up. It looks normal again.

Our new residence

Several of you have requested some pictures of our new abode. Below you will find them assuming I can post them ok. Enjoy, we do.
Looks like I messed up the one that is the approach to the house, so I will add it in the next group. I am trying to do it as if you were walking up to and into the house.

A Day at the Zoo... and with Trains




We had a fun day today at the LA Zoo! It was Paisley's first time going to the zoo. We went with the Cornwall's and had a blast! Look, Jason is almost as big as a gorilla! We suggest holding off for a couple months before going to the zoo if that is in your plans because a lot of the animals were gone because of construction and other things.


After the zoo we drove down the road a little ways until we got to Travel Town and climbed on the trains and took a train ride. It was a lot of fun to go there. Paisley enjoyed looking at the trains and taking a train ride. It was a fun, fun day!

Paisley Pretty Easter Dress



Paisley looked very pretty in her Easter dress. She had a blast walking around with her basket picking up eggs. She liked to shake them and then open the ones that made the loudest sound. She was smart enough to know the loudest ones had the best candy!

Happy Easter from us...



Here's Mialee sporting her new Easter dress and Nathan sporting his new church outfit. We had a very nice day. Church was wonderful. Mialee's sunbeam teacher told me after church that Mialee 'taught' the lesson today as she knew all the answers to when, where, why of Christ's atonement.

Happy Easter



Yesterday we decorated Easter eggs. It was a lot of fun. Paisley kept thinking they were food and would get upset that we didn't give them to her to eat. It was a fun time.

Summer Fun





There's my surgery mark. Yuck!
This afternoon we got out Paisley's beach tent and set it up in the front yard. We played on the grass and Jason and Paisley shared a Popsicle in the tent. She loved sitting in the tent and her little chair that matches. It was a very fun day!

Some Cute Photos

This is one of Paisley's cute summer outfits. On the onesie is a pretty rainbow! It's very cute.
We made a yummy dessert to have after conference and Paisley was lucky enough to get to lick the spoon!

On Friday we went to downtown Disney and had lunch in the Rainforest Cafe. This is Paisley eating her fries. She had a lot of fun, but when it came time for the storm she got scared. We were sitting by a big toucan and she really liked it.
