Week in Review...

Abby and I told Ashlyn about the boutique place we found, so they had to go back on Saturday...aren't these dolls so cute, creepy and super expensive?


It's our favorite place to shop now, ha!









Ashlyn spent the week being a full live-in nanny for 3 kids and their dog. She was really busy with school, her internship, and being a temporary Mom. She was excited to sleep in this weekend...


















I made some yummy banana bread from a Recipe that Kim shared...
Abby and I went to be guinea pigs for Ashlyn. She practiced doing every X-ray known to man on us...We were there from 7:30 to 10pm. Ash did great!


We enjoyed listening to Bryan's homecoming talk, he did a great job!

Week in Review...

Abby and I went shopping yesterday and stumbled upon this adorable boutique warehouse, it had lots of different booths with fun things....

It even had this cool fountain that Abby tossed 2 pennies into...




Ashlyn's cool hair!





My brothers Randy and Ronny and their sons Bryan and Mathias hiked 1/2 dome on Monday! Such a beautiful place to go hiking. It was a very strenuous hike, so glad that they're safe. It makes me want to go visit Yosemite, so beautiful!







This was an old school in El Portal that my mom attended...


Bryan is looking over the edge!
Such a cool accomplishment!




Rick and I went to the Diamondbacks game on Monday, which was teacher appreciation night! We got great seats for a discounted rate and 2 mugs!
Cute Ash in her new skirt!
Bryan and Ronny going to church in Mariposa...
School that my Dad went to in Mariposa...
We were so close to the field, it was amazing!

 Abby was so brave today and bore her testimony. She said that she's grateful for all the many miracles she's seen this year. Ashlyn went on a date last night with a guy in her ward. They held a bake-off, attended the YSA volleyball game, and went out to IHOP. She had lots of fun and met lots of people in the YSA ward. She also gave us quite a scare when she fainted this week during her internship. The hygienist had to catch her before her head hit the tray. We aren't sure what happened, but she's going to try and snack through the day or suck on Lifesavers. Hopefully, something will help, poor girl. After Ricks' front bridge popped out last week, he was able to get a temporary put-in on Tuesday. He'll get his permanent new teeth in a few weeks.

Ronny and Brian are touring around Mariposa, and tomorrow they'll be hiking Half Dome! This is the high school where my dad attended, and he's celebrating 60 years since graduating next year!


Sarah re-created this cute photo that I took of Sarah and Jacob at Emily's wedding, and now at Brayden's wedding...

It was a fun weekend with family!

Brayden's wedding, luncheon, and reception were all beautiful! It was a hot day, but everyone looked great!



















Hahn family, so cute!!

Lydia and Brayden Hahn, beautiful couple! They got married on Jacob's 18th birthday in the Mesa, Arizona temple.

















We slipped in a little birthday dinner for Jacob at Chili's...
My cute parents are trying to survive in the heat....















Jacob bought his first car on his birthday, a 2015 Nissan Altima. We are so excited for him!
It was so fun spending time with family! Sarah came to visit me at my school and see my new classroom...
My parents rented a house with a pool, and we took advantage!
My beautiful sisters...


We had to get In N Out for the Sarah baby!

It was a great weekend, although Mom got sick! Poor Mom. Hoping she feels better quickly, Dad was so sweet and got her soda and crackers. We are so happy for Brayden and Lydia and especially that they'll be living in Queen creek!
