So last time I tried to be brief about some of the new news in our lives. This time I might actually achieve brief (I'll try, really).
In September we got new room mates. This time it is girls. We've had lots of people stay with us, and we have loved them all. But oddly they have all been boys (or men if you prefer that terminology). Now we have our niece the Bean and her friend K. Marie. (I'm trying out the "no actual names" deal, we'll see how long it works)... they are 18 and going to Dixie State. This is one of the walls in their room...it is bright pink with the zebra print theme...I actually LOVE it! and I love having girls around. I have never in my life (except for a brief time in high school in West Jordan-love those aunts and cousins) lived with more estrogen than testosterone...I didn't know any different. It is kind of nice. I actually like girls. Love boys too, don't anyone take this personally, but I could get used to having more girls around than boys. I know our girls would agree I am a far cry from a "mother figure" but I think maybe I could actually take care of girls...who'd have thunk it? They do laundry, they cook, they smell nice, they like to talk about stuff....I really like them and I think they like me too! (Weird) Plus they are letting Herc sleep in their room to "protect" them. True Love, right there.
So this is the bean and Jas, boxing it out at our cousin's birthday party at the bounce party place in Vegas--the cousins invite us every time--I LOVE THAT!! (though I did learn this time that there does come a time when you are too old to play on the bouncy toys...my knee did a freak thing in the obstacle course, thankfully it felt worse when it happened than afterward...)
This is the bean and her uncle Jas. She is taller than him (and maybe more mature?), but she is still the bean. We love her.
And certainly no small event B & K got married!
Darling family. The baby had his very own suit, so adorable. It was a great day! We felt priviledged to participate!
These are my dad's two GREAT Grandbabies! That is right, he is a GREAT GRANDPA times 2

These are my dad's two GREAT Grandbabies! That is right, he is a GREAT GRANDPA times 2They are adorable and so are the grandkids in the background!
Unfortunately I got distracted when they took the 2 Five Generation pictures. R is the 5th generation for both sides of my family...Grandma Jean and Grandma Joy, miraculous.
Can't leave out my baby. Here is Herc's Halloween costume, thanks to the girls he is now BOLT! (see the lightning bolt on his butt?)
I love him, could you tell?
