Memories in the Making

WOW has time flew by. CAN you believe it's now AUGUST. For Me school starts in 17 DAYS!! Doesn't it seem like summer just started. In 47 days I will BE 14. That means stake dances, next year I can get my driving permit, and for me it means 8th grade this year. (ick)
For you it could mean going back to school yourself or sending a child to their first day of kindergarten.
No matter what that means to you we all realize that life is pretty dang short. It seems like yesterday my sister told me she was having a baby. I remember holding him in my arms and that was 8 years ago. I can remember things like they were yesterday. LOOk at all of us now . I am an aunt of 12 nieces and nephews and one on the way.


KATELIN at Disneyland, posing everywhere she went. We have some funny pictures of her.

MEEEEEE! After my dance pictures. This season was great and we all bawled when it was over because we all love each other like sisters and some were going to go to high school. We all were going to miss being together.

MCKELLE at her baptism party. We set up the giant water slide we all love and then all went water sliding.

JACOB at our family's 4th of July reunion and he is at the pool. He had a full body swimsuit that had a life vest in it.

ISAAC and dad at our 4th of July reunion at our cabin eating on the deck our traditional breakfast of blueberry pancakes and eggs.

RILEY on his baptism day. When we sang primary songs at the service he sang his best and so loud because he was getting baptised. He was so excited.

AUDRIE at her kindergarten graduation. She started crying at the end of the graduation because kindergarten was over.

DAVEY on the slide at Savannah's birthday party. He would go down and then climb back up over and over again and had a blast.

SAVANNAH eating her apple sauce and strawberry birthday cake. She was so funny when she opened presents because she got so excited when she saw what someone had gotten her.

TYTAN at our cabin. He smiled most of the time, he loved It there.

BRADEN, BRAXTON, BRADLEY, I love this picture because Braden is haveing a good time, Braxton is distracted by something else, and Bradley is not very happy about staying still.

You see life is really short and you need to take the time to smell the roses,

and make every memory last. I named my blog "Memories in the making" because life is full of them and everything we do are memories in the making. Happy August. Come what may and love it!!!
