Here we are at the Atlantis resort - this place is amazing. They have one of the world's largest aquariums and the most incredible water slide park.

We went to the Bahamas in July, we had such a great time. This picture of Layla on the beach was our own private beach it was amazing. The water in the Bahamas is so warm and crystal clear.



This is a picture of me sliding down a water slide that after you drop straight down you go through the shark tank in hydro tube that you can see through and see the sharks all around you. This was one of my favorites at the Atlantis resort.

Several years of begging my husband and it has finally paid off - for Mothers Day Jared got me shutters on the front windows of my house. Looks pretty good don't you think?

Gracie's first Dance Recital

Grace has her first dance recital at the Tulip Festival at Thanksgiving Point. This was very entertaining to watch a bunch of three year olds try to do the whole routine. Jared and I spent the whole entire time laughing as they each did their own thing.

Disney on Ice

We took Gracie to Disney on Ice and the look on her face when she saw the princesses was priceless the first thing she said was "Oh my gosh, I can't believe it" Jared and I got a big kick out of the whole thing. Gracie is in love with the Disney princesses. She dresses up in her princess dress-ups everyday, and with way to much lip gloss she will come up to me and say do I look like a princess? I f I try to call Gracie by her name she will look at me and say "I am not Gracie, I am Snow White".

Easter 2008

We had a big Easter hunt with my brother and his children. Gracie got way too much Easter candy and by the end of the day she was bouncing off the walls from all the sugar that she consumed.

Gracie out enjoying a nice spring day, because if you know Utah it's unpredictable weather it is spring one day and the next day it is a snowing blizzard.
