Update

Reese and Kennedi at Lorin's baptism. Reese is so cute. She always has jewelry on. I love it!
Kennedi struggled with an earache but Reese was right there to comfort her.
The newest addition to the family...Tyse Peterson Cole. Tyse and Lisa after his blessing.
Robert and Barbara at on of the many family gatherings. What a blessing to be able to spend so much time with them in such a short visit.
How many kids can you fit in a wagon? Alex, Jake, Kailee, Brigg, Kennedi, and Rylee.

I know not staying current is becoming a habit but I guess I'm using the summer as my excuse. I seem to have taken a break from a lot of things; my blog, blogging in general, my friends (sorry guys.I know I have either been traveling or just anti-social lately), cooking. Is it the heat or just the lazy days of summer? Well anyways here's an update of the past two weeks.

We went to Arizona for 5 days to see our families. Rich's parents were home from South Africa for two weeks so we wanted to be able to see them before they had to return. It was great! They had lots of stories to tell and we got to see some video, curtesy of Scott and Lisa, of their crib(ha ha)and places they've been. Robert is doing legal work for the church over there and they travel alot. They brought back gifts for everyone. Each grandchild got an animal that was hand carved. The kids thought that was very cool. We love Robert and Barbara so much and look forward to their return next year!!

While we were in AZ we also were able to attend my niece's baptism and nephew's baby blessing. We stayed with Rich's brother Michael and Tiffany. They are awesome!! They are always so generous with their home(and kitchen). Thank you for taking us in and being so patient. Their daughter Reese and son Cash are so,so cute! Reese loved Kennedi and I think Kennedi loved the attention. It's always fun to see our families that we miss and love so much!!
