Birthday celebration

Jana's birthday is June 4th but we decided to celebrate on the 3rd. She woke up to find a balloon from her Grandma Taylor. She loved it and didn't want to stop playing with it.

She wore this cute dress that Grandma LeeOra gave her.

 After church we went to Grandpa & Grandma LeeOra's for a party.

 Auntie Lissa and Grandma Taylor were there.

And lots of other people. However, I am really really sad that I don't have more pictures to show you. Because the next day we left for Hong Kong. And while there the camera was either stolen or lost. But all of a sudden it was gone. I wanted to cry. We had some great presents of everyone that came, dinner, presents and little girl eating her cake. She had cake all over her face, in her hair and up her nose. Then we gave her a bath in the sink to clean her off. It was a great party with lots of fun. We were so grateful for all of our family that came over to celebrate Miss Jana Grace with us.

First Skates

May 31st

Danniqa got her birthday present early because she was going to be gone on a cruise with her mom. She got her very first pair of skates. She is very excited to have her own instead of having to use the ones at the rink.

Last Day of School

May 31st - The last day was actually the 1st but she was leaving right after school

Danniqa is done with 1st grade! Here she is on the last day of school (well the second to last)

 And here she was on the 2nd day of school.

We try to get pictures on the first and last, however, when you share your daughter you do what you can. She is so dang cute in both the first and last. I am so proud of her and all the hard work she did this year!

Going... Going.....hopefully soon gone

Well I have pictures of the last day of school, Danniqa getting her visit pair of skates and picture of Jana's birthday party last night. But you won't get to see any of those for a week because right now I am sitting in an airport. Kevin and I are headed to Hong Kong. My little one is at papa and nana's house and aunt Sausha is there as well. So I am sure she will have fun, but I am going to miss her like crazy. And miss Danniqa is on a cruise with her momma. So away we go. At least we hope. Our flights look. Like we will make it.... We hope. Have a great week!

Family pictures

We got our picutres done at fotofly yesterday. They spend 45 minutes with you shooting, then 45 minutes editing then you get to look at them and go home with prints if you want and the CD. It is kind of nice just to have them. We enjoyed our experience other then Jana was happy and smiling before, dcried all throughout and then smiling after. It was a little frustrating.  On the CD they give you a release so that you can print them other places. So here are a few of my favorites. If you want to go look at all of them you can go to

Jump Rope

Danniqa has been a fan of the jump rope as of late. So today while she was jumping I decided to take some pictures.

Memorial Day

Monday May 28 Little girl and I headed down to Spanish Fork. We went to mom's grave and put some flowers there. She wasn't sure about sitting there at first. But then sat well for me to get a picture.

Then we went up to Morgan & Jennie's house to visit with Jennie and the boys. Jana and the boys played and had a good time while I enjoyed myself sitting and visiting to Jennie. Then we headed up to Dad's new house in Spanish Fork. Dad & Vicki moved this last week. PS as did Sausha & Jack. Dad moved to Spanish Fork and Sausha moved to Denver. After visiting with Dad I got to go and visit with my friend Melissa and her family. It was a great day!
