Dominican Republic.

I thought we'd give a shout out to Dave's little brother Guid0, Uncle Ham, Sammy Boy, or as most people would know him as Sam. What a week, he had his farewell on Father's Day then left on Wednesday for the MTC. He is going on his mission to the Dominican Republic. We are so excited for him. He is going to be one of the best missionaries out there! I know you may think I am bias but any of you who know Sam know that he is one of the most loving and giving people out there. He is always trying to help anyone and everyone out, he'd give you the shirt off his back if he knew it would help. He is such a Stud!!! Really Ez couldn't ask for better! Uncle "Ham" always got Ez a smiling, and last summer Ez chose Sam over Dave and I at any given time.

I just want Sammy to know how proud I am of him, you're such a great example to me and our little family. We'll miss you over the next 2 years, but we are cheering for you! You're going to grow so much probably in more then one way :) When people get to know you they can't but love your fun and outgoing personality. That alone is going to convert thousands. GOOD LUCK and remember we LOVE you and are so so so PROUD of you and the choices you have made. See you in 2 years!

The Cutting of the Hair Part II.

Well, we finally went and got Ez's haircut. The lady that cut his hair said he was the best 1.5 year old she ever cut. He did a great job, he looked forward and didn't cry at all. During the whole thing he kept saying "Eza's haiw" it was really cute. As you can tell we didn't cut it too short its the same style just about 2 inches shorter. But it definitely looks much better. Good job Ez!!

The beginning. Look how long and mangy.

The finished product. What a Stud!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY DAVE!!!!

It is true Dave turned the big 26 this year! He is on the down side to 50. I just wanted to give Dave a shout out for being such a good sport on his big day. We started the day at the Train Station and ended it in Park City for Dave's work dinner. I think he had a pretty good day though. At least I hope so :)

I just wanted to let Dave and everyone else know how lucky I am to have Dave as my hubby! He is the best guy ever! He is such a hard worker. He puts in 8-10 hour days at work and when he gets home he always has time for our family. He and Ez are still "Bestest Buddies." I am so blessed to have such an amazing person in my life. Thanks Dave for everything you do for me and Ez. We love you more then you could imagine!
HAPPY HAPPY HAPPY BIRTHDAY DAVE!!!
