We are excited Lauren is coming home this week from BYU for a few days. This picture was taken the last time we saw her, which was Christmas time. She has changed her major to Public Relations. She loves BYU.

Last summer Rachel talked me into going to the Comicon convention in San Diego to see Stephenie Meyer and the Twilight cast. Again we sat on the sidewalk for 5 hours to get a good seat. I had just started reading Twilight when we went. She, Emily and their friend Rachel Biancur grabbed 3 seats together about 5 rows back. I found a single seat on the front row, hence, I am now in the Twilight bonus feature where they show the cast at the Comicon. Another fun day with my teenagers!

Rachel talked me into going to the David Archuleta concert at the Glass House in Pomona on St. Patrick's day. I even waited in line for 5 hours on the sidewalk so Rachel could be up front. She is in the crowd in the picture. Made friends with the lady in line next to me who is a Penguin trainer at Sea World. Karlyn and her daughters met us there as well, making it an awesome day! Believe it or not, we went to Disneyland that morning with family and after going on space mountain, Rachel and I left for the concert.

Christian was ordained an Elder on March 23, 2009. We are so proud!

Andrew promised Mandie and Jamie a trip to Hawaii since they didn't get to go to England last May with Christian, Lauren, Emily and Rachel. He said it was my responsibility as the stay at home mom to take them, so I obliged. The three of us had a fabulous time!

One of the best days of my life--Meagan and John's Temple Wedding.

(I haven't figured out how to change the date on my digital camera. This picture was taken this winter) Mandie and Jamie make a new friend on a snow day.
