Jessica's Here!

After working in Salt Lake City all summer as an office clerk at KOA,

 Jessica is now home and ready to start school at SUU!

 It is great to have her back home!

Heather's Here!

We are excited to have my niece Heather come live with

 us in preparation to her going to SUU.

We spent some time with her family on campus today. 

 Tom, Heather, Stephanie, and my sister Rebecca

Heather & Shakespeare are already good buddys

Happy Birthday!

Today Jayci turned 9 on the 9th-

 it is her Golden Birthday!!

and Dad turned 55

Started with Breakfast in bed

We went to the Aquatic Center for a swim party

The birthday buddies

the Party People

Jayci jumping off the diving board

Tyson did good to keep up with Shannon and Brenton

Shannon's favorite water spot

Then we went to Discovery Park for a picnic

We picked up some Cafe Rio (it's Taco Tuesday!)

and Jayci opened her presents

Her favorite- an MP4 player (does music & pictures & videos)

She also liked her little Smurf-

 (we went and saw the new Smurf movie last night

 as part of her birthday celebration).

She also got clothes and new shoes

Dad was happy to get black licorice :)

He also got a new workbench 

in his garage

Aaahh, the beautiful birthday cake!

Jayci wanted a marbled 9 layer cake.

A 3 layer cake was all I could manage, 

 and as you can see, it soon started having problems.

And was worse by the time we got it to the park

I know you are impressed with my cake making skills :)

Janessa did not inherit her cake decorating talent from me!

Bishop Jolley's favorite present was getting keys today to our new church building.

 This is his new Bishop's office

(as you cane see the pictures are not even hung up yet.

We will start meeting in this building in about 2 weeks.

 It is a beautiful Stake Center, is was fun to go inside and see it)

So today Jayci turned 9 and Dad turned 55,

they are sharing a 9:55 moment

here on Tues 8-9

It was a great Golden Birthday!

Dustin

Dustin's Blessing day

We are so happy to have Tyler & Margaret's cute family

 come live with us while Tyler is all over the country 

doing his rotations this year. 

It was a special privilege that they blessed little Dustin

in our Enoch ward today. 

We appreciate the love and support of 

family and friends who came for the

special occasion.

Tyler & Margaret with Dustin 

Margaret's parents are serving a mission in California,

and not able to attend, so they sent Dustin 

his wonderful blessing outfit.
