Its That Time of Year

School has started! Lauren and Emily are attending Foothill Tech Highschool as a freshman and a seinor. Laurens five AP classes are resulting in a ton of homework, but they will be well worth the hard work. Emily is still getting used to high school. She just realized how early seminary starts and is thinking an earlier bed time would be helpful.

Coming Soon

We still do not have wedding pictures. But they are coming soon!

Guitar Experts

Emily and Barry completed a six week guitar class, learning notes, fingering, and chords!

We didnt practice having much strength on easter. How can u resists the cadberry eggs, peeps, and chocolate bunnies.

A Little Visit From Katie

Katie and Joe are home for the weekend. :) Its great spending time with them. Even though everything we do, hear, and say is about the wedding. Somtimes we do need some fresh air to get away from all the little desserts, fancy dresses, and sparkly center pieces.

Miracle Worker

bleach is a wonderful thing.

Life Lesson

NEVER wash a bright pink t-shirt in your white load. Unless you enjoy wearing pink all the time.
