Home Again James


Sorry for the lack of consistency in posts, I'll work on that this week. Just for quick updates on the happenings of our lives, I am now in Michigan! Yesterday morning Jon took me to the airport so that I could come and spend a glorious week in the greenness of my home state. It's just refreshing to breathe here. I do miss Jon already, but it was pretty fun to see my mom on Mother's day.

In other news, we almost finished sewing my temple dress, the sleeves just need to be added. Last night we also went over to the home of a great family friend to start altering my wedding dress. Other tasks for the week involving finishing the guest list, getting my hair done, selecting pictures for a video, and deciding what, of all of my belongings stored at home, I want to keep. Life should be fun and pretty relaxing while I am here. My sisters also picked out the dresses they are wearing to the wedding and the outfits that the little babies will wear. Here they are.

This is the dress.



This is the baby boys' sailor suit. So cute, right?

On the Jon front, he is stuck in Utah slaving away at work all week. He will join me here in Michigan on Friday evening. This is his first real trip to Michigan, so I can't wait to show him around. During his week, I think he is planning on getting the house ready for his brother to get home from his mission. We cleaned like crazy last week, even getting the carpets cleaned. Then we started working on the lawn, which Jon is planning to finish while I am gone. He's got a busy week ahead of him.

That's most of the news in our lives for now. But I will try to keep everyone better posted.

Thanks for the update, even though I pretty much knew what you guys were doing.
I love the dresses and outfits for the boys. SO fun.
I am glad you are home too. I wish I was there : )
And Jon has pawned off the hard yard work to workers from Got Junk?
The lawn needs a mowing....like now! I know he is just waiting though for the dirt to be gone.
See you when we get back!
