18 June 2008

My sister Becky and her husband live in Tennessee. He is doing Army/school stuff this summer and she and the kids came out to Oregon to stay with family while she works a summer job. She is working out of town this week and her in-laws wanted to take a little trip without the grandkids. So they got to come to my house! They are sure a fun/cute little bunch to be with.
Here on the couch we have my Nephi, my niece Mercedes and my Michael.
This little blue-eyed darling is my nephew Benjamin. Too bad you can't see the oatmeal on his chin! He is a cute kid. So easy going for a two year old. He can come anytime!

I think this was in 2004. It was Nephi's first trip to the beach. The boys were all so little! My have they grown.

Meet the Parents...Russell and Candace
It all started for us when Russell left for Cape Town South Africa on a mission. Candace felt inspired to write him - so she did! We wrote for 3 1/2 years. Candace came home from her mission to the Texas Houston East Mission and we dated for 5 months. We married in July 1994 and have been happy ever after!
