Family Pictures Fall 2008

Happy Birthday Katie!!

Happy Birthday to the girl, who was and is the joy of our life.

No longer a teenager...

Thanks for being a great big sister to my darling boys.

Katie and I were fortunate to have a fabulous adventure this summer.

We loved the early mornings... Sunrise in Switzerland!

Thank you Katie for suggesting such a fun trip!

You are a delightful daughter. What memories we have had over the years!

Think of all the fun to come.

Happy Birthday !

I love you!

Mom

Home... then off again...

After being home for a few days, it was time to head to the beach

We love to go to Huntington Beach and always by lifeguard station #13

Mike and the boys love to boogie board!

The cold water does not seem to bother them.

Who should we run into...John & Lindsey

We have great memories of the beach with John & Lindsey.
We got to meet the cute Layla!

After a day at the beach, it was off to a LA Galaxy game, They were playing Real Salt Lake, a perfect game.When we bought the tickets, we thought it would be perfect for Labor Day weekend, the boys could go while I was gone.Well we were a little confused on the date and it was a good activity after I got home!After all that, Beckham and Donovan were not there. The boys still loved the game and it was a great weekend. What is better than a soccer game and a day at the beach.

Katie on her way to Romania

Katie at the Vienna Airport right before she left to Romania

This is where we parted ways...sad day for a mom!

It's a good thing I still have Riley & Mike at home!

Sam's First Day of College

We took Sam to college the day before we left for the big trip.

Another sad day for a mom...

How can I have two in college???

Riley's First Day of School

This is Riley on the first day of School.

I have never missed a first day before, but Mike took a picture.

I love that since it is on the way to Seminary, it is dark.

We love those early mornings.
