Our summer vacation-the BEST!

Our summer vacation was so much fun and we loved seeing our family!

We had Ron's family reunion in Payson, UT and as Becca is displaying, we had lots of watermelon.

Oquirrh Mountain Temple open house


Ronnie's 5th Birthday-complete with Pokemon cake


Ron went with the boys and his family to California and spent gobs of time at the beach while I sewed dresses and got ready for my sister's wedding. We both had fun and I hope to make it to the beach soon!



My sister Jennie got married! Mike Commons is the lucky guy- he really does smile, this is the only picture I had of the front of them. Cute couple, great wedding...

Ronnie with Aunt Tina eating dipping dots, his favorite treat!

Dont' ask me what she ate for lunch-I believe Raman, peaches, and fudgesicle-yum


Ronnie started kindergarten! He had a couple of really long days with full days of school and super late bus. Although he's had a couple of sad mornings of not wanting to go to school, he seems to like school once he gets there and is happy when he gets off the bus. As he makes more friends, I'm sure he will be more excited to go...it's not easy to move, start school, and be the first one in the family to go to school when you don't have friends yet. But Ronnie's a trooper!

Hey Rachelle!
I'm so glad to have your blog address! I had lots of fun seeing you and I'm sorry we couldn't chat more. (Chaos!)
I can't believe Ronnie is in kindergarten! And your new house looks great.

Ronnie is adorable! Look at him all grown up. Come back to us and I will be his teacher...

Crazy that all of the kids speak Spanish. Poor Ronnie. I think that he will get used to it, It is so hard to move, but kids can adjust so quickly. I wish I were a kid.

Full day is long. Alex hasn't started yet, but I'm hoping he'll like it. Good to see you guys are having so much fun!

Yeah - a new post! Ronnie looks so handsome and grown up in his first day of school picture. I hope he is liking it more each day. Post a picture of all the dresses you helped sew for your sister's wedding. Glad you got to go home and have a fun vacation before "real life" started up again. Dave finally got his office last week and now we haven't seen much of him again. His students start next week so it is crunch time getting ready. What about Ron? When do his classes start?

I'm so glad we were able to spend many of the those memories with you! I hope both Ronnies are doing well with all the changes. Andy is wearing his matching polo to school tomorrow.

Miss you guys.
