Babies, Birthdays, Rocks, and Such

I've been totally lazy about blogging lately. I apologize. And I still haven't started studying for the GRE. I really should get on that. But I have had a wonderful summer break thus far.

Recently Mandy and I threw a baby shower for the beautiful Rachael. It was small and intimate--such a blast with close friends. It was so fun to see Tia fresh off her mission as well. We love having her home!

I've also been trying to get in loads of baby time with Oliver and Elliott. I especially need a lot of Elliott before Adrienne and Nathan abandon us for 3 years.
We have also been enjoying birthday parties. First was Mitch's sister Lauren. She got to share her birthday with Memorial day which meant we could go to Vernal to celebrate it with her.
Then it was my father's birthday. He is the big 60 this year. We surprised him with a children and spouse dinner party at Thanksgiving point. It was absolutely perfect and I think he loved it.
I love my dad so much it makes me cry just thinking about him.
Also Nathan and Adrienne blessed baby Elliott last Sunday.
And yesterday, since Mitch was gone camping, Ali went to a wedding with me and slept over and got out of bed with me to go cheer on Christa during the end of her MARATHON! So proud of you Christa!!!!
Then last night my sister Megan graciously took us rock climbing up AF Canyon. It was a blast.
Here is Karren
