exciting news...

we bought Logan's plane ticket home today for thanksgiving!! we are way excited.. my sister bought mine back in June and Logan and I didnt have the money back then to buy his... so we waited and waited and forgot lol and then i remembered the other day and rememebered! and lucky us there is the 79 dollar each way goin on at southwest... so we got his tickets for 178 after tax and everything!! he does have to fly home two days early, but its cheaper and we still get to be together.

I love Utah's summer storms... they are beautiful and strange to me... in washington during the summer if it storms, its cold, wet, ugly and ug... but here its hot, muggy, and beautiful... the skys are always amazing to look at, and i was lucky enough it get these two shots while i was at a photoshoot on Sunday.

Quote of the Day

Okay I want to be able to keep this blog up and I thought that having a quote of the day... here is the first one :)

OH YAY!

i never thought i would be so happy to walk to work in the rain! yesterday morning logan and i woke up and i was freezing!! it was so nice to be cold for a change! it was starting to rain and then by the time i got to work, it started to pour, buckets!! it was crazy! knocked out power a few blocks away... lightening and everything... but it stayed cooled through out the whole day... i dont think it ever got up to 85.. OH YAY!! this morning it was so cold that logan and to get blanket around 6am. thats so weird because usually during the winter he could sleep with a light blanket at night and be fine... i hope this is a sign that things are cooling down... today i am wear pants! yes pants! crazy!! yay!! lol well have to get going!!

hey

okay so im a huge LAMO! sorry!! my mom has been asking me to take pictures of the flowers i recieved, which thank you to you all. I never did... lame yes i know.. its just so hot here, and i kept forgetting and with the heat the flowers didnt last too long, yes i gave them plenty of water :)! lol.. anywho this is a picture from the website that my mom, sister, and carrie sent me flowers from. it looks exactly like the ones i recieved. i promise lol. Anywho we are doing good... im not sure what we are doing today... probably cleaning lol.. i let that slip this past week.. oops :) anywho well im going to go. have a wonderful weekend!

beautiful

I was looking for lds quotes for my art journal... something im diving back into lately... help let go and get my mind off of things. Anyways I found this picture and felt at peace. Angels watching over us, guiding us, walking with us, teaching us, and protecting and loving us.

Reason for Everything...

Today could possibly be the hardest day I have ever had to endure. I know I never want to experience this again, but at the same time I know that this has happened for a reason. It was hard to see the screen and really see nothing, it was hard to listen to only my heart beat and hear nothing else. It was hard to look at Logan and see him crying. At the perfect moment Logan held me tight, as we waiting alone in the room, and whispered to me that in time we will raise this child. Comforting words to hear... and to know in the meantime the little one is safe in Heaven being cared for by all those who love us. Guess it's the hardest thing to let go of, but at the same time its peaceful knowing that the little one is okay.

PARK!!

We went to the park today and had a picnic and the kids had a great time playing on the playground! Andrew loves the "wee" also known as a slide and the whole time on the swing he giggled! Matthew loved climbing up the slides and also a little "mountain"climbing toy.. Maegan loved everything, especially the slide! they all had a great time!! Also the two pictures that are similar of rae and i are 5 years difference. One was taken today and one was taken 5 years ago!! im sure you can figure it out. well have a good day!!




Matthew has something to say to his Mommy and Daddy:
M iss you
A re you having fun?
T he park was nice
T he fireworks were loud
H awaii pictures are nice
E verything is wonderful
W e love you

That is a poem matthew wrote

update!

Hey everyone! I'm having a blast in Washington! the kids are keeping me movin! lol yesterday was the 4th and we had a blast. we went up to Grandma McGuires and had a yummy picnic and hung out with everyone. Made a quick trip to get fireworks, and then headed on home to light them off. The kids had fun lighting the little kiddy ones off, especially Matthew. Andrew was not as pleased by them... i think it was mostly the neighbors lighting on rounds of 100 crackers at a time... but he also only had a 30 min nap that day as well... so he eventually went inside with grandma and fell asleep quickly.. here are some pictures of everyone enjoying their day. first picture is Andrew of course... he insisted on wearing the glasses while the fireworks went off... comfort i guess :) the second one is just some fireworks the neighbors set off. third picture is of another cool picture of fireworks... The fourth is Adam with about 12 or more sparklers spinning around i thought it turned out super cool!! The 5th picture is Matthew with his punk... he had such a great time with the fire works and lighting them off with the help of Grandpa. The last one is of Maegan and Grandpa holding a sparkler... lets just say as soon as it burned about 1/4 of the way she would freak out and throw it on the ground! lol well hope everyone had a great Holiday!!
Maegan wanted to say something to her mommy and daddy: I love you and miss you. Matthew misses you too and Andrew. Laura misses you too. Have fun in Hawaii!
