I really have been meaning to do this for a long time. I've always loved the idea of keeping in touch with each other through blogging. It's so great to have the opportunity to see how family and friends are doing too. It's better than hearing how people are doing only at Christmas when we get cards, letters, and pictures.
Life is always busy - for everyone it seems like. I haven't heard from anyone lately, "No, I haven't been doing anything lately." Their replies usually include a long list of responsibilities and activities they or their families are busy with. Just yesterday we were at the marriage and reception of my best friend who is also like a sister, Kimberly. It was a beautiful day and so exciting for her and Marco (her hubby). But of course, it was a busy last couple days preparing and helping, but oh so worth it to see them so happy together. Just look at that happy couple!!
James is still the light of our life. His most recent new experience was "flying" a plane. We were in Bountiful, Utah for our cousin, Stef's wedding (yes, there are a lot of those lately). Anyway, Uncle Mack let him have a go at his plane and James loved everything (the headphones were only for a quick pic.). Everything else was soooooooooo much fun. He had spent the week looking for airplanes outside with our cousin, Ryan, so this was the pinnacle of the airplane experience. Just this week he's begun pronouncing words even better like chocolate (it's sooooooooo cute when he says it), popcorn (you can tell we haven't been feeding him all his food groups the best lately), "yup" (he says this to almost everything), and just trying new words all the time. It's so fun to see him grow and learn. He's such a blessing in our family!
Thanks for keeping up with us and we hope to hear from all of you too!
