The greatest joys in life are experienced in happy family relationships... the cultivation of a happy home requires effort and energy, forgiveness and patience, love and endurance and sacrifice, but it is worth all of this and more. -Gordon B. Hinkley

Left-Overs

Sam being Sam!

My best friend Kathryn from high school visited us for a night at my dad's house with her 2 kids, Avery & Asher.

Lucy needed a vacation from her vacation!! She fell asleep playing on the floor.

Trace turns 6!! I know that this deserves its own post, but I didn't really get any pictures, so Happy Birthday my sweet Tracer-boy!!!

This is the face I got every time I told them to get out of the pool for lunch!





Using mom's hats to protect their faces from the sun!


So when you are gone for a month and take over 5oo pictures, it can be tough to decide how to blog them. What order to put them in, how to categorize them, how many pictures are too many, etc.! I was too tired to think much about it, so I just did what I could. Now I am going to post all of the random left-over pictures that don't have a category but that I still want to post.

They're in great order! Everybody just loves looking at them! Plus, there's no need to tell a story with your photography...it speaks for itself! It looks like you had a wonderful trip! :)

The boys are cute, Cali is stunning, Rian is SO a pre-teen (and a knock-out already!) The picture of Lucy asleep is so gorgeous, what a creative angle it was taken from. I always love looking at your pictures! Looks like summer!

Wow! There was a lot of celebrating going on during your trip to California. It looked like such a blast. I love looking at all the beautiful pictures you took Jen. What a wonderful talent you have. Happy belated anniversary and happy birthday to Trace. By the way, Romney just turned 3 months yesterday. I know who to set him up with in 21 years! That's crazy.
