4 Generations

On July 4, 2010

We had the opportunity to have a 4 generation picture taken.

My dad came from Arizona for Celes' baby blessing in the LDS Church.

Back Row: father~ Josh great grandfather~ Willie Front Row: grandma~ ME and Celes I love this beautiful addition to our family

Long Time No See

I have rented a little apartment in Provo, Utah...that does not have Internet/wi-fi/ cable ect...ect...

But...it is a perfect for the living needs, it is furnished and comfortable.

So I was thinking I would do a few quick catch ups...

First~ How fun that my sister Lene, Linda and I were all able to meet together for a nice lunch...It was great! Linda was as amazing in real life as she is on her blog.I had an appointment with my heart transplant surgeon, Doctor Doty...he said everything looks great and said as I was leaving....go have fun and enjoy every minute of the rest of your life!

Look Who Is A Week Old

She now weights 7 lbs 5 oz.

Look Who Else Is Happy To Be Home...

Itsey is so glad to be home!

We kept Reku after Celes was born...and Itsey didn't even mind her puppy tagging along or sleeping next to her.

WORLD CUP PARTY!

We were so sad to see the USA team be eliminated from the World Cup Soccer on Saturday...

So...now we only have one team we are cheering for...

ARGENTINA!!!!

even Itsey got into the game though I am sure she was secretly cheering for the

Mexico Team.

We had our Argentina t-shirts and colors on for the game

and we even made cookies for the game...but I didn't get a picture before they were all gone!

yes they were really good!

Celes Marie

What an amazing experience to see my first grandbaby enter this world.

You would have thought that Ali was giving birth to her 10th baby...she did such a great job...Josh was her counting coach, his emotions made it hard for me to control my tears.

When Celes arrived she was not to big on the breathing thing
but with a little encouragement she was doing great in no time and was a pretty pink.Josh was so excited and happyPoor Ali had to wait about 20 mins before she got to hold her,
but Celes recognized her mom's voice and the moment was placed in her arms settled right in. Kirk and I were so excited to get to touch her

but even more to hold her

Welcome my new granddaughter

Celes I love you our sweet little grandbaby...

Grandma can not wait to spoil you!
