California

My sister-in-law Jayme and I were able to go to California for a couple of days. Our main purpose in going was to see Wicked in San Diego. We arrived a day before the show and so to burn the time we decided to go to Disneyland. We had a great time. The Show was wonderful and DL was so fun. Gary and Brad and the kids all got together and played while we were gone. I am grateful for my wonderful Husband. When I got home the house was cleaner then it's been in a long time. I need to go away more often. It's always fun to get away, but it's great to be home. Jayme and I hope we can get all the sisters to go next time.

Tomatoes, Tomatoes, Tomatoes

With Mom and Dad Hill on their Mission, we have had the great oppertunity to use their wonderful garden. The Hills are famous for the many, many, many tomatoes they plant. These are some of the tomatoes that we were able to can this summer. Kirsten and Ruth and their boys came to help me can that day, and we just happened to get Big Ben into a little girls swimming suit. Ruth's boys always seem to end up in girly things at our house. Go figure!!!!

Summer Birthdays

Our Summer is always full of birthdays. Lucy, Gracie, Annie, and Eliza all turned a year older in the past 3 months. We loved celebrating with family. We let the girls choose a fun thing to do with the family for their birthday. Lucy chose to go to McDonalds to play and eat. Annie chose to go swimming and then to El Matador(which was alright by Mom and Dad). Eliza had her birthday while we were at the cabin, so we played and celebrated in the mountains. It's fun to have cute, sweet little girls.

New Background

Gary saw our blog and decided it was "too girly". So we changed the background in hopes of a more "boyish" look. Annie and I really like it. Hopefully this will be the backgroud we keep for awhile. We will wait for Gary's feedback. We sure love our one and only boy, and we will try to stay clear of the pinks and purples.
