Changes

Jonah and I no longer work at Wildflower!  He hasn't worked there for the past couple months and I just had my last day on Thursday.  Jonah recently found out that he has a job at PSC (Pacific Southwest Container) and he will start work on August 9.  We went out to dinner the night we found out he got the job to celebrate.

July 4th

Our festivities began at Sarah and Ryan's house to hangout and decorate shirts.
I made Sarah's shirt and helped with Monique's because they were each making shirts for their daughters.



Next we headed over to my parent's house for swimming, dinner, and dessert.

Last but not least we went over to the Nickell's house for the big show!

The last firework gave us quite a show, even catching on fire at the end!

July 3rd

We are starting a new tradition of going to see fireworks on July 3rd.  Last year we were dissapointed when we didn't think we would be able to see fireworks because we were going to a wedding on July 4th. Fortunately for us the Visalia Rawhides started doing a firework show after their July 3rd game so we went to the first one last year.  This year we just wanted to see as many fireworks as possible so we went again!

Enjoying snow cones before the show.

FIREWORKS!!!

A Visitor

Our niece Jacquelyn has been in Visalia visiting her relatives here.  We've had her over for a couple of nights.

Decorating sugar cookies before the Fourth of July.


Jacquelyn's mom said she could get a kitten so we got her one and she named him Tiger.

Just Because

I felt like making some collages with some of my pictures...

Yosemite Birthday

For my Dad's birthday my family took a day trip up to Yosemite to celebrate.

Jonah and I in front of the first view of the valley.


Picnic lunch by the river.

Delicious chocolate cake!

Some nice pictures of the sights in Yosemite....








We had fun with Isaac's sunglasses.

Happy Birthday Dad, we all love you!!

May 31st

Jonah and I celebrated our 2nd anniversary at the end of May. We didn't have anything big planned because I couldn't take the time off work. However we really wanted to do something so Saturday night we got in the car and started driving up north. We spent the night in the car and continued driving in the morning. We ended up on the 49 and it was beautiful! Here are some of the hightlights....

Eating pizza for lunch at a Pizza Factory we found.


A cool building with colors we liked.



Some pretty yellow lupine!


And some geese we found as we went walking around a large pond in the middle of a city.
We had fun and it was good to get away and enjoy each others company.
