Happy Birthday Jake!

Happy Birthday to a wonderful brother! We are so glad that you moved closer so we can see you more often. Thanks for your wonderful example and friendship!

30 Going On 15....

So, the t-shirts are being made as we speak. (Thanks Darci) I am officially attending the all night party for the release of my favorite book...Breaking Dawn...wearing a shirt that says "I love Edward". No I am not the only one - I will be in good company with many friends, average age 32. Crazy, YES, but who cares! This is one of the many reasons I love the neighborhood I live in!!!

What we have been up to...

It has been a busy couple of weeks at our house...prepare for a picture overload. Here is what we have been up to...
Swimming with friends...
Watching our Dad play baseball...
Hanging out with cousins at Grandma's house...
Holland Family Picnic at Bear Lake...
Discovering the feel of wet sand...
Riding bikes in the neighborhoold 24th of July parade...

Watching fireworks in the company of good friends...
Trying to steal the brownies while mom and dad are distracted by the fireworks...
It has been a fun filled month at our house! I am tired!

TAGS are NOT my thing!

I am not a huge fan of the whole tag game but I found this posted on my friend Becky's blog and it sounded different and fun! I copied the instructions, word for word, from Becky because I am too lazy to re-type them! Thanks Becky!

Here's how it works:

1. As a comment on my blog, leave a memory that you and I had together. It doesn't matter if you knew me a little or a lot, anything you remember, good or bad but be nice please! ;)

2. Next, re-post these instructions on your blog. If you don't want to play on your blog, or if you don't have a blog, I'll leave my memory of you in my comments.Come on all my blog followers... I want to post something about you, let's see this on your blog!!!
