Happy Birthday Cody!!!

Today is my Cody's 8th birthday!!! I can't believe how fast it has gone and in a couple of weeks he will be baptized. He was pretty excited to get to share his day with his Uncle Jack. Today was Jack's homecoming and Jack did so great speaking, what a natural! Cody has been talking about his birthday party for months now. We do friend parties ever other year & he was planning early this year. On Saturday Rhett, Chase, Seth and Landon came over for pizza & opening gifts. Then we headed off to go play at Makutu's Island, the boys had a blast!! I was lucky to have some company Pam met me over there & we found a place to sit & chat and boys just were off and playing, checking in with us every once in awhile. After the fun we went for some yummy ice cream to cool off. Cody had a great day! He also loves getting all the mail on birthdays. The grandparents, aunts & uncles- thanks guys!!

He's HOme!!!

This is us waiting at the airport for Jack & my parents! We were so excited that they all made it on the plane. Us girls made t-shirts for the kiddos to wear that said: i heart jack (girls) & hey jack (boys) and the kids made a huge sign! Jack thought it was pretty cool and he kept telling his friends if they saw their shirts. Jack seems just the same wonderful happy self! We had a house full of friends & family. And, of course the kiddos were dancing and eating cake! We didn't get home until 11:30, it was a very fun and exciting night!!

This is the kiddos watching Jack open some of the packages. They have some wonderful stories from their trip, hopefully my mom will post soon & share some. We are so grateful & feel blessed that everyone returned home safe!

A Farewell and Homecoming!

We went to my cousin Jordan's mission farewell and a close family friends homecoming. It was nice because they are in the same ward so no rushing to the next one. They are in the ward I was in before I got married to Garrett. It was fun to run into a lot of old timers! After we went over to the Ferrin's house for lunch. This is Paige's cute family my twins would not corporate so I don't know if my mom got any good ones of our family. Landon cracks me up when ever he sees the camera he will give you this cheesy smile!
We went to our ward "Foot Rodeo" it was lots of fun and they had a huge turn out! And, the weather was beautiful! We went out with a bunch of friends and left the kiddos with sitters. It was a fun night!
