A Dad is a person who is loving and kind,

And often he knowswhat you have on your mind.

He's someone who listens,suggests, and defends.

He's proud of your triumphs,but when things go wrong,

A dad can be patientand helpful and strong

In all that you do,a dad's love plays a part.

There's always a place for himdeep in your heart.

And each year that passes,you're even more glad,

More grateful and proudjust to call him your dad!

Thank you, Dad...for listening and caring,

for giving and sharing,

but, especially, for just being you!

Davids Surgery

Dad just got his foot surgery and is now a cripple living in our living room floor on an old twin size matress and using us kids as slaves for food and water since he is not allowed to get up for a week. He had instructions to be laying down resting with his foot above his heart for atleast 23 hours a day. :D All went well during the surgery which started around 6 am last thursday and he got to come home later in the day.This thursday he goes in for a check up and to recieve a new cast.

Home Sweet Home

Short trip, but very much needed!!I left to school the end of December and was going to have to wait until September to see my family! I already miss home!


Last Wednesday I flew out of Salt Lake City and made the long trip back to Virginia. Long, tiresome, but completely worth it! I can say that I don't get homesick, but once my parents bought my ticket I was totally ready to go! Leaving to come back to school was even harder.


Why does BYU-I torture you in the summer?!! I wish I was out of school along with everyone else....Oh well, this will do for now.



So it really all started with the photo's at the very end, but that is okay..

Saturday night a huge group of us went to IHOP, I had so much fun hanging out with my old friends, I didn't know I missed the close-knit friendship like that. We ended up sitting around talking and having our laughs until 1am.



Wouldn't want it any different!!

(That is the parent table... and the teens below. )

Ashley!

Okay so back to the beginning of my weekend. I got to meet baby Colby Pugmire!! He is so adorable and looks just like his older brother Kyle (photo above right).





He is soooooo tiny, especially when my dad holds him!

Here is Derek & Little Kyle!

My weekend was great although I had to leave on Sunday... :( I ended up flying to Denver, Colorado and sitting there for 3 hours!! Yes, my flight was delayed because of a tornado. Lovely, I know. I was suppose to get into to SLC and catch a shuttle back to Rexburg. That did not happen. I did have the experience of shuttling to a hotel to stay by myself. I caught the shuttle back to Rexburg this morning, luckily making it back for one class and a horrible math exam..

Well I sure had fun even though it didn't last to long!! I love my family!!!

Late Mother's Day

HAPPY LATE MOTHER'S DAY!!

Here is Mom at girls camp! She ran around and was scaring everyone in camp, including a Bishop who thought she was a bear!!! ( He wet his pants!)

Mom, you are the best and we truly do appreciate all that you do for us! We couldn't ask for anyone better! We love you Maja!!!!!!

What a Weekend!
