Happy Birthday Isaac

3... how can it have been three years already? My thoughts this morning are turned to your actual "birth" day, what a joyous time! I wonder now what you would be doing at 3? What you would look like? Would you have curly hair, would it be light? Would you like Letty's favorite noodles or have Gracie's sweet tooth? Would you be really active or have a slower pace? (sigh)... I can't entertain these thoughts too long as it makes me miss you TOO much. We love you Isaac! We think of you often and you are just as much a part of our family as ever. Thank you for giving me strength I didn't know I had and motivating me to try to do my best. We miss you our angel baby, more than I ever thought you could miss someone. We look forward to the day when we will see you again.

Homecoming Weekend!

We have had a lovely weekend full of family time. Friday we decided to take the girls roller skating. It was a bit of a disaster but I think we all had fun anyway. Letty was a bit stressed trying to skate, which was not alleviated even when we upgraded her to a scooter. Not to mention I can't remember the last time I skated...all in all it was good for some laughs.

GO BYU!! Saturday morning we went to the homecoming parade and had a great time seeing the floats, collecting candy and of course cheering for Cosmo.

Gracie kept trying to sneak candy....she has a little sweet tooth.

Letty loved the parade.
Later that afternoon we went to the grand opening of the Museum of Paleontology. It definitely wasn't grand as far as size goes but was fun to walk around a bit (took a whole 10 min. to get through :) It was sort of crazy around the museum since it was right before the football game and was pouring rain outside. They got lots of people stepping inside trying to avoid the rain.

We then enjoy a $.50 cone from Coney's Frozen Custard. Compliments of a coupon we got from the parade. (Lemon Chiffon)

We topped the evening off with a pizza party while we watched the painful BYU vs. TCU game with Aunt J and Mark.

From Here to There...

Come the end of next summer we will find ourselves once again in New York. T has taken his job offer with American Express! We will be entering a rotational program so we will be in New York (most likely living in New Jersey) for about 10 months, England for 8 months, and then either back in NY or another location. Fun, Exciting, a little Stressful! We feel really blessed to have a great job opportunity. Come and see us friends and family. Think about how much you will save on lodgings.


Other happenings...

Last week we enjoyed Friday night football. Our very own BYU won against USU. Letty got to come with us since we got a free ticket for her and Gracie enjoyed spending some time with Aunt J (thank you).

A last minute trip to ID was a great time. It happened to be during potato harvest so it was educational as well.

Aunt J and Letty at the piler. You obviously can't tell here but that conveyor belt was moving very fast, and made it hard for me to be up there very long (too dizzy).a huge Idaho spud!

In the potatoe cellar. It felt good to be out of the cold. Idaho thinks it's winter.


Picture a summer home here, breath taking.

Gracie got to go to a pumpkin patch with the spouses association today. Letty was at school. I felt bad going without Letty until I realized how much I did with her by herself, Gracie deserves some undivided time too.

Some Extra Pics:Girl time during Priesthood Session of Conference.

Caught in the act. So cute!!
