Catch Up


Hello everyone, once again I have to apologize for the long wait... ;/ 
I promise you we didn't forget about all you blog viewers, and just have been waiting for a chance to blog!  For the past few weeks we all had the cold/fever/cough and well, just not feeling good. Thank the Lord we all are better now besides a few runny noses here and there. 
  
Jesse did not want to have his picture taken. (One of the days he was sick on the couch.)
In January Joylin, Joshua, Jared and I (Joanna) all signed up for Still Waters youth camp. We were all very blessed to get in! 
Just had to share a picture of these adorable little men! 
Rook has been "The Game" in our family for a while now. Every time we get together you will find the majority of the family around the coffee table, or in a circle on the living room floor playing it. 
Judah is growing up fast! Can't believe he is already 4 months old!

The Canadians Come To Visit


Jessica, Kezia and Jason flew in February 2nd and  Chris got here the 19th.
We had a very enjoyable time with them, and were sad to see them go this morning.
Thank you Jessica for all your cleaning and organizing, and Chris... well, thank you for all the good laughs! =) 


Jason is the most loveable little guy!
Kaitlyn had us all over one evening for an early celebration of Justin's birthday.
It was so fun all being together and enjoying one another's company.
Not very often can we say "Look Mom, all your kids are here!".
These grins are what makes an Auntie proud! ;)

These girls played for hours together. Besides the few squabbles they both enjoyed each other very much.
Riding tricycles together :)
I thought this was adorable!
*Best Friends*
Eating popsicles
Its so funny to think that Jubilee is their Aunt! 
Playing games on a lazy sunday

< Mom made them matching dresses >
Exploring the Tucson zoo together.
Chris got to go hunting with the guys while he was down. He got his pig mounted before going home, now he has a nice souvenir for his wall. =)  

Come back soon, we miss you already! 
Sorry we don't have any more pictures... I guess you could say we were having too much fun with them to take pictures! =D

Visiters From PA and Reception Preparation

We decided to have a wedding reception for Justin & Kaitlyn here in Arizona for the people that weren't able to make it to the wedding. We were glad that Kaitlyn's family was able to join us for a few days. Before I go any farther I would like to thank Lilia for letting me borrow some of her pictures!! :)  It's nice having another person taking pictures when you are busy! ;)

Anyway, Kaitlyn took her family up to the Strong Hold and the boys got to go along.
The Joshua's :)
The adorable couple! 
Half Moon Tank.



Joshua caught a gopher snake. They also came across a rattle snake.
Everyone over for homemade icecream!

Yummy!!








Uriah and Benjamin
Sunday School after church.
It's always more fun when there is more people to join in with the singing! :)

Playing a trivia game.

Memorizing bible verses.

 {Reception Preparation}

We planned a full meal for the reception, so it was so nice having everyone's help! Thank you so much!!
Juliana came a few days ahead to help with the preparations.
Making meat balls.
Lots of laughs as we worked!
Jenny made dozens of amazing sweet rolls!!
Did I catch someone high fiving in the back ground? ;)
Don't they look amazing!? And I promise they taste as good as they look!! Mmmm!
Making dessert cups..


We figured for around 100 people.
So I got this really cool Idea off of Pinterest, (Thank God for Pinterest!) of putting the pictures in the little logs. Joshua quick cut them out for me and I ended up using them for the food and drink names as well.
I loved how they turned out! :)

Well, that's all for now! Stay tuned for pictures of the Reception!
