Mexico

We are in Puerto Pinasco Mexico and it is awesome. Here are a few pics. We are here with the Nixon family, staying in a great condo on the beach, swimmig in lots of pools, eating tons of food and having a blast.

Dinner with a view for our Chase boy

They are very liberal with the drinking age here in Mexico

Some of the pools at our hotel!

Grandma and Grandpa Nixon

Aunt Michelle, the boys love her.

Home again...I think?

Once again we made the long drive home....At lest alot of it is quite pretty, as you can see below. Also, you may not actually care but we kept track of the different lisence plates we saw coming home, we counted 27 different states (2 from Canada, Alberta and Saskatchawan?) With at least 2 other possibilities that went flying by at 70 mph and couldn't be substantiated.

If you were in our car, here is what you would have seen:

Becca and Camden

True Love!!!

Congrats to Becca and Camden Bird. Their wedding was wonderful! The weather was pefect, the bride was beautiful, the groom was hansome, the friends were plentiful and they are so in love...what more could you ask for?

Doesn't Becca look stunning? I love what she did with her mom's wedding dress!
I got to spend the whole day with my Quinn (and no kids!) reminising about when we got hitched...ahhh the good ol' days!
What a fine wedding party!

Sunglasses for the Poll

Here is a pic of us on our way to the airport to pick up Quinn. Please take the poll at the right in referance to these new sunglasses....I won't tell you what Quinn said about them!

Quinn is Home! (Again)

We had a great time picking Quinn up at the airport and going to temple square with our boys. It was a beautiful day and temple square was so peaceful and nice.

These are the sunglasses refered to in the poll at the right ->

Jack loved seeing the 'Big Jesus' It is fun for us that he is learning about Christ and the temple.

Homemakers!

Becca and I made peach Jam! We used over 80 peaches and ended up with 29 jars of various sizes. Becca was so proud of us. "I thought you had to be like a mom to make jam!...well, I guess you are a mom!" Glad I could be a mom so you could finally make Jam Becca :)

Mushing the peaches, squishy!
Some of our many jars!

Picnic

Picnic at the park with Mark, Julie and our kids!

I love this picture of the kids!

The three pics below are of the contest mark made up for the grown-ups. See how many times you could go back and forth on the slider. Mark killed us, but I beat Julie. (Julz showed me up on the 'lift your legs over the bar' contest)

Finger Painting

Pudding Paint

I made Banana pudding on sunday and then we dyed it to make it into finger paint! Jack loved getting his hands into it, it kept his attention for like 45 min!

Side note: I let him put the green coloring in, so there was a lot of green dye in it. He also ended up eating most of the green before we even got started....his poop that night was the greenest I have ever seen! Ha Ha, guess it had to come out somewhere:)

1st Haircut

Chase had his first real haircut today. My mom held his head still and sung to him while I cut it. He didn't even cry! What a sweetie.

Doesn't he look like a little Dapper Dan Man?

Also pictured are the clippers I used to cut with and you can the clump of his little blond hair that I cut off.

Baby Darcy Karen Anderson

Baby Darcy is home already! Tracy had her on Thursday afternoon. She is 7 lbs. 1 oz. She is so cute.

This picture is for Laura....Shelby cut her own hair 4 days ago so here is a pic of how she looks now, kind of sad :(
