The Waiting Game

Savy, Haley, Jasmine and Montana

So, of this picture of 4 girls, 2 have their mission calls and 1 is patiently waiting for hers to come! Montana's papers went in last Wednesday. She is SO excited. As her mother I am nervous, scared, excited, overwhelmed and a whole range of other emotions. 

Savy's call came last Wednesday and she is off to the Idaho Pocatello Mission in July and will be learning Spanish. 

Exciting things coming up!

Costa Rica 2013

My favorite part of the trip----late afternoon surfing at Este.

Our annual trip to Costa Rica was, once again, a HUGE success. It's truly hard to re-adjust to real life.... (I know, you're all feeling so bad...) We had a big group this time around----Baileys, Paynes, Hunters, Andersons, Clarks, Deuchers, Youngs (Chris & Karen) and us. We had tons of fun surfing, eating, playing Five Crowns, swimming in the ocean and the pool and especially playing "Would you rather...". My abs were sore from 9 straight days of laughing. 

Awesome time and awesome friends!

Some of the ladies at Este

yes, even I surfed!

Party on the rooftop

Bringing in the only catch on our first fishing day.

Sweethearts 2013

Orem's Sweethearts dance was last night. Not sure how these 2 got in on the photo shoot....

Finn & Maddie

Not quite sure the vibe they were going for with these pics..... I guess they're pretty original at least!

He returns....

Our boy came home today. Words can't express how glad I am to have our family back together. We sure missed him. 

Winter Formal--Laguna Beach style

Just a few pics from Winter Formal for Indy. His date couldn't go at the last minute so he went stag (which was better, in my opinion....).
