Conor's 7th birthday and Jordan's wedding in Utah

Conor's birthday was March 6th, the day before Jordan's wedding. Krista threw him a little party for whoever was at Mel's house at the time. It was fun to have so many cousins there.





Jordan and Carter's reception was so nice.It's always so fun to get together as family whenever we get a chance!

On our way to Utah and on our way home, they were working on the road way out in the middle of nowhere. They put up this temporary traffic light, it cracked me up so I had to put it on my blog! Something most people probably won't ever see, I never dreamed I would!!!

OUR TRIP TO TEXAS

Craig and I took a trip to see Kort and Pratt in Texas in February. We stopped to see my sister Jen's beautiful new home in Oklahoma on our way there. Pratt and Kort came up to meet us there and to see Jen and her family and new home too. It was so good to see all of them. I can't believe I didn't get a picture of her home while we were there, but I've never been real good at remembering to take pictures of everything. I did take my camera to the church when we went with them to sacrament meeting in a town about 20 miles south of where they live. The whole family spoke on missionary work which was such a treat for us to be able to listen to. They all did an "excellant" job. I love you all so much, thanks for the way you blessed our lives that Sunday!
We had a 4 1/2 hour drive ahead of us, so we followed Kort and Pratt to their house. It was a fun week even though they had to work, we were still able to have some good times together. They took us to Texas Roadhouse for dinner, where I had to say to heck with "weight watchers''!! It was so delicious. Thanks for the good time "ya'll"! We love and miss you both.
Don't look so happy Pratt!
Mike, Jen, Hunter, Jena, Megan, Tara, and her friend Tanner

Pratt and Kort got a new bed while we were there

Kort took a fruit tray to her friend Ashley's baby shower, that we went to. Lots of fun!

Could you squeeze a little tighter dear?!
