ok. lets pull it together.

heres' whats been up....

the week after school got out

we headed down to sunny st. george.

we love it down there, especially with the shupes!

this is how josh and grant spent the trip.

good thing there's cell phone service in zions!

on one of these many calls we received life changing news,

josh has a new job!!!!

we are so happy and he is beyond thrilled.

he has been on a contract working for HP

and they picked him up permanantly.

this is a huge blessing for our family.

beautiful emma.

sam and josh spent loads of time

here together.

that is, when josh was not emailing,

calling, and taking care of "new job" stuff.

thats ok though, i was more than happy.

sweet eliza.

nice form griffy.

why do i have an 80's prom curl

going down the side of my face?

i did a fun engagement session with these two.

they pulled me out of retirement for this one.

and last but certainly not least,

elizas dance recital.

i swear i was just blogging about this.

she was an elf, in "the elf and the shoemaker"

it was so darling,

clytie adams really puts on a great performance.

ok. eternal post, sorry.

we have also been getting into the groove

of having everyonw home.

it has been pretty smooth.

we filled out our "summer to do" list

and we have some fun things planned.

the kids have been working on some goals of

their own, and hopefully they can achieve those.

griff is in heaven having everyone home.

he will be a very sad baby come august.

so we're soaking it in.

hope your summer is going great!
