Day 149 (5/29/11) - Birthdays!!

Yet another traditional birthday dinner. This one for Brent, Scotty and Nick (see earlier picture of presents). We love any chance to get together. The kids played Kinect for hours and we played with the twinnies.

Graham and Simone are starting to walk and feeling pretty proud of themselves. Any other kid would be overwhelmed by all the attention at these parties, but these kids kept us entertained for hours.

Day 148 (5/28/11) - Grandma Stevenson

This is a picture of my Grandma holding my dad. My grandma passed away today. She was just a month shy of turning 102. I have many memories of spending the night at her house and swimming at her pool. I am so happy that she can be with my grandpa again, but sad to see her go from this earthly life.

Day 147 (5/27/11) - Chronic Taco

Maelen has been travelling down to San Clemente this week for training in her new job at Chronic Taco. The restaurant will open in Bella Terra in about a week.

Day 146 (5/26/11) - Nick's Mission Call

Here's cute Nick holding on to his mission call waiting to open it. He was called to serve in Tallahassee, Florida. Vicki was worried he would feel bad about a stateside mission since his brothers went foreign. Nick could not have been more thrilled.

Here is Nick with his brothers minus Brent. So cute to have them together.

Day 145 (5/25/11) - Court of Honor

Jared looks thrilled that I'm taking his picture. Actually, maybe the issue was that me, Matt and my dad stood up to take pictures at the same time. Jared received his Life and three merit badges! Only one more merit badge and and project away from Eagle!

Day 144 (5/24/11) - Swan

Must this greet me every time I come into the garage? I must admit, it just kind of creeps me out. Matt would like to float it in the pool, however, I have a feeling it would disintegrate into a million tiny pieces.

Day 143 (5/23/11) - Rare Moments

When these rare moments arise, I must take a picture as proof that they really happen. Funniest part of this moment is that Kendall is off somewhere crying because they kicked her out of the picture. Rule #1: Only get along with one sibling at a time.
