32 and 40

Anne, Alison, April, Robbie, Rachel, Marianne, and Heidi

Say cheese!

Ready, set, BLOW...Make a wish!

Is that not the cutest smile??

32 abd 40...Got to love it!

My sister turned 32 and my cousin turned 40 and we had a party... it was great! Alison is a vampire in her alter-life, so we went to a movie with vampires, and werewolves...strange? Not really. It was actually a great plot. Things are moving up in the world. Love you Ally!!

Heidi had a huge surprise b-day party. She was completly caught off guard. That makes it all great! Happy happy to so many I love!

Kellis is a Deacon

Can you share two emtions: humble and proud? That is what I feel!

Look what a wonderful family. Just love them!

Kellis is a deacon...love him!

WOW! Kellis is now 12 years old. He was ordained in the the Priesthood of Aaron yesterday by his dad, Scott. It was very tender. It was very special. I was nearly bursting with the Spirit and all I could do was smile and squeak. (That is what happens when I feel the Spirit--my enthusiasm and energy just spills out).

Oh Kellis Heavenly Father is so happy with the choices you have made in your life. You are so strong. You are very fortunate to have what you have. I love you so much. You humble me by how strong you are. I love you son. Love Mama.

Babies are sooo Special!

me and Jess

Yummy Cake!

Friends! Hi Krissanne!

More family and friends

Cute Mama!

Babies are so special! My wonderful friend Miss Jessica is having her 4th baby, I just had to throw her a shower! It's a boy! He is super special to all of us. Why? Because he makes my friend so happy! I'm so happy for her, for Chris, and for the best three kids in the world. Miss Jessica is a friend like no other. She is one who is kind, loving, and very giving of all that she has.

My favorite qualities of Miss Jessica? 1) She is creative! I'm sure all of you who have ever received a homemade gift from her can all agree! 2) She listens...ahh what more can be said about that. 3) She is available--to talk, to laugh with, to just be there while you sniffle and blubber. 4) She has great logic. It helps to snap you back to reality and not to wallow in the drama. 5) She has a solid, strong, and loving testimony of the Gospel. It touches my heart to she how she walks with faith. 6) She is tall. ahhh, one day... 7) She named her sewing machine...that's just cool. 8) She is a wonderful mom and has made huge sacrifices for her children. All children have needs, but some have needs that take a bit more "craftiness" to understand and love. 9) She has a great sense of fashion. True! True! And finally 10) She loves me...selfish but I'm forever grateful.

John 15:13-14: Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends. Ye are my friends...

Happy Baby Shower!

4th July Celebration/Tradition

Smile Virginia

King of the Rock!

Isaac and Sammy swam, ran, and played hard together the whole day...

Sammy!

The beaver...sammy :)

I know my Heavenly Father loves me :)

I will lead you!

Garrett and Virginia in the Skunk weed.

Love it! Oh yeah!!

The cool 12 year old...

We went on the Farmington loop. Up the Canyon, up in the mountains, up in the beauty of the Earth. Sammy loved swimming. Some people thought that he was a beaver...so funny. We played, splashed, threw the stick, ate, drove, gawked over the views of the valley, enjoyed the cool mountain air, hiked and finally just lived it up with the family. Loved the day. Happy 4th everyone :)

Look who is in the Sling

Swim gal...opps on the side...

I just love my sling :)

Just mama and me...

My little Marianne just loves her sling. She is so cute. She just hangs around me all day. I really love to have her close. She just fills our home with love. Love you baby girl!

The pledge

Unfailing the colors...

Unveil the flag...

Singing!

God Bless America! The Giauque's did the first annual Flags and Flapjacks! It was a hit. We had 30 people come from the neighborhood. They enjoyed music, food (flapjacks, taters, and eggs), the flag raising ceremony, conversation/fun, and kaboom!--the Cannon. It was a great way to remember America. God Bless you all!
