Family Reunion San Diego California

I know I am way behind on my blog (thanks to all of you who keep reminding me) I am going to try to catch up so here I go. We went to San Diego (actually Oceanside) California at the beginning of summer. I can't even begin to say what a great trip/family reunion it was. I forgot how much I enjoy spending time with my brothers and sisters and their awesome families. We plan on going back in the summer of 2010 and we already can't wait! I am not much of a blogger I think I need Morgan (my niece) to help me. And thanks to Suzanne I actually have some good pictures of our trip. I tried to pick some of the best ones and the ones that to us mean the most.
Who ever decided to get 2 beach houses GOOD THINKING, can you imagine trying to fit all of us into one?? There are just a few missing from this picture and they were missed and I hope they have taken enough verbal abuse about missing that they won't miss in 2010! Seriously I am so lucky to have such a wonderful family, its so fun to have so many different personalities blend into such a great family.

The view from our beach house was amazing, we literally could sit and watch the ocean all day... I loved it.

This picture was taken from the beach house, the Dolphins would swim in close enough for us to watch them. It was amazing.

I love this one of Steve and the girls on the Pier

Cami had such a good time with her cousin Logan they

have become life long buddies

Dallin and his boyz (Zach, Dallin, Brockton, Jake and Gunner)

Audrey and Addie were inseperable and having the time of their lives. Not to mention, dominated the waves through their boogey boarding and surfing skill.

Audrey was a fish and spent most of her vacation in the ocean

I tried surfing.. and tried... and tried. I have to say it was one of the hardest things I have ever attempted to learn. It was still fun though!

Good thing Suzanne is so quick with her camera so I would have some proof if only for a moment...... I did get up!

We went to the Jazz Game on Monday, it was a lot of fun. The kids spent all day making a poster (mostly Audrey) for the game. It was really neat and they got on the jumbotron twice. We went in on some season tickets this year and it has been so much fun. GO JAZZ!

Audrey took second place in her last tennis tournament. My sister in law came to the match and got a couple neat pictures of her . Way to go Audrey!

Digging Out Again!

And it's still coming down

We got dumped on again this morning Dallin and Steve spent most the morning shoveling our driveway and some of those around us, It means one thing..... Gotta hit the slopes tomorrow!
It's really starting to pile up.

I took Audrey and Dallin and some of thier friends skiing on Friday they had so much fun and they were a lot of fun to watch. The Snow in Utah right now is AMAZING we had powder up past our knees. The little guy we took (Jackson) in some spots was almost to his waiste. It was awesome! This is Audrey taking a short rest while waiting for some of the boys.L to R is Jackson, Hayden, AJ, Dallin, and Audrey
In front of the Lodge Audrey, Hayden, Dallin, Jackson, AJ, and Nate

Cami was baptized yesterday, it was so neat. She was so excited. We are really proud of her. The day before she was baptized Suzanne took her up to the temple and took some pictures. They turned out really cute I wish I could put them all on. We wish you all could have been there but we understand that you all have your own things going on. We were so happy to have the family that was able to come it really meant alot to all of us especially Cami.

One of my favorites

Cami was so happy that Grandma and Grandpa Lamb could come. We missed Grandma and Grandpa Searle but know they are doing a great job in South Africa

Here are a few pictures from out trip to Yellowstone I hope I didn't duplicate any of the pictures Suzanne put on her blog, but she is so far ahead of me you probably wouldn't remember them anyway. We had so much fun with Scott and Suzanne's family and Mitch and Nicole's family. We really want to go back next summer when we can spend more time there. We saw some really amazing things.

I just love my girls!

Our kids saw some of the most amazing wildlife! This picture at Firehole Falls is where we saw the salmon trying to jump up the Falls, it was awesome and one of my personal favorite things we saw while we were there.
