Flashback Enrichment 1 year ago

Last year we had 12 different sisters decorate each table with their own dishes-it turned out way cute.

My little brother is HOME

Cute boy cousins:
Logan and Beckham look alikes?

I can not believe how 2 years just flew by-it was 2 years ago that Logan had his baby blessing because my family was in town to see my brother off at the MTC. And here we are and he is already back from his mission in Atlanta, GA. Both my sister and older brother who still live in California were both able to make it up to Utah to see Skyler (Elder Blood) arrive home safely. We were thrilled to see him and had balloons and all the fam ready at the airport-he came down the escalator and I totally cried in excitment (I blame it on the pregnancy emotions) or maybe I just felt bad for not writing him enough? Anyways it was a fabulous reunion. It was fast Sunday that week so he bore his testimony at church, we then had his buddies and old mission companions over for a mini homecoming-he officially gets to talk in church on Easter Sunday. We had a wonderful time reminicing and playing games-we also helped him get set up with new clothes and room stuff as he will be attending BYU this Spring semester. He will enter as a Junior because he was quite ambitious before his mission and graduated High School early and got his Associates before his mission. On top of that he entered the mission field 3 weeks prior to his 19th birthday so finally today March 13th he turned 21. Happy Birthday little bro.

Girls Getaway

My freshmen year at BYU was almost 9 years ago, I lived in the dorms at Helaman Halls and had a fabulous group of girlfriends. We decided it was time to finally get together so we planned a reunion in Monterey, CA since most of us live on the west coast. 7 out of the 8 of us were able to attend-so we relaxed, chatted it up and ate lots of junk food. Pictured (maiden names): Debbie Clark (from Conn. now living in WA) Kacey Cozean(from WA living in WA), Anne Parkinson(from UT living in UT), Meagan Nelson(from AZ living in San Fran) Me (from CA now in UT) McKenna Ainge (from OR now in CA) and Megan Gooch (from AZ now in CA) not pictured Courtney Mallon (from Virginia living in Virginia).
