Jim & Melanie arrive alive?????

So we arrived, however not drugged enough. We had a rather uneventful flight. However I do believe there was some turbulence, Jim did not feel this. We went to eat at Bubba Gumps in Santa Monica & Dad found his future boyfriend. He couldn't keep his eyes off of him & his leopard print tattoos. Vavavoom.
Friday I shopped it up with Jen & short chics. Tess lookout for some awesome surprises. Jim accompanied Erik to the ghetto aka Exeter house, he is now the pool boy. We can all him Juan. They also got Mexican food that we all were punished with later. Next time Beano please.
We went out to dinner at Mimi's cafe & had a ball. Tommy protested, he wanted mall pizza. So after dinner we took Tommy, Issy, & Presleigh shopping. We all came out winners especially Jen & Erik who got to shop Costco with only Brooklyn.
Today Dad & Erik are out pretending to be farm laborers. They are working at their Stake Vineyards, cutting the grapes. Later today Issy will be baptised & I get to give a talk on the Holy Ghost. I am thrilled! So pictures coming later. I love all my family in Utah, give kisses to the babies. That includes you Tess.

Our Fam damnly

To everyone who wants to know what our crazy brood is up to. Lots & not so much at the same time. We are all alive & just hanging in there. Taking what life dishes out in stride. Please enjoy the pictures of our goofy family and have a laugh or two. Enjoy!

Baby Ayla & Lexi are Blessed

Today we celebrated the blessing of baby Ayla. She was in perfect form, no crying or fussing. She was perfect. She even had a sweet little necklace from her Mommy on.
But not to be out done. Lexi was blessed last week and she was also an angel. She had on one of her cute hair bows and her pretty bracelet.
They were both followed by a family fun packed party. Thanks to all who came we had a great time. P.S. Brooklyn wore her earrings and her clothes as well.

Ditto

This is the story of a wonderful woman, who married a very funny man. They started with one girl & then another. Soon they had a family of six, but wait two more now. And then the family was complete.
Now Gym & Mel have 6 daughters, 5 son in laws & 10 grandkids & one on the way.
