Celebrating my Parents



My parents finally returned from their 18 month mission to the ABA, NIGERIA Temple. Man did they have some stories to tell! We had an amazing reunion in Stockton, CA,(my hometown) June 6th through the 16th. All 30 members of my immediate family were there to welcome mom and dad off the airplane, which was obviously very emotional. For the next 7 days we played, ate, shopped, cried some more, talked and enjoyed every second of every minute together. It was the best reunion we have ever had and it will definitely be hard to beat. My parents served in one of the hardest missions and came away from Nigeria, changed and touched by the people and their culture. My family was blessed so much during their mission and they are such an amazing example to their children and their grandchildren.

Getting older . . .


Happy Birthday to my amazing husband, Paul who turned 32 on June 4th. We had a great party at Barros pizza with some wonderful friends. My dear friend Rachel made him a drum cake in honor of his incredible skills on the Rockband drums. We had a blast and Paul was grateful to have so many of his good friends there. I scored major points for throwing him this little shindig!
