    Welcome

    This is Noma. Or Oma, as Gretta likes to say.


    She'll be joining our family on August 3rd. We are very glad she said yes. I guess we've all fooled her into thinking we're a cool enough family so she'll want to become one of us.

    I wonder how long it will take her to figure us out? ;)

    Congratulations, Dad and Noma. We love you.

    Roses On Your Piano

    Did I give birth recently?

    I don't recall.

    But I must have, because Sugar Daddy came home with these beauties.


    Only the second time in our entire marriage that I have gotten flowers without needing a C-Section first.

    The other time was when we were fighting pretty good.

    This time, no reason.

    I'm suspicious.

    Happy Anniversary

    My sister Troy married his lovely wife, and our now adopted other sister Kelli on this day in 1995. Wow. The 90's. How very 90's.

    Good choice, Troy.

    Wedding Day

    Well, she said "Yes" at the appropriate time, so here are the pictures that prove it. She was the most gorgeous bride I've ever seen, and I'm not just saying that because she's my little sister. She did a fabulous job planning the wedding, and everything turned out beautifully, even the weather.


    Moments after saying "Yes".


    Isn't that one of the most gorgeous cakes you've ever seen? She grew that wheat grass all by her self, with a little help from Kelli, Jill, and a grass growing operation in the basement.


    Saying bye to Dad. Aww.


    So purdy. Those are Mom's pearls, and her ring consists of Meg's engagement ring, and my mom's wedding band. They look so beautiful together.

    It was a fun night. The sisters all got to mingle around the guests all night long, and it was fun seeing people on a good note this time. There was still a definite missing piece, but not in a sad way. It was as if Mom just stayed in the back of our minds, and let Meg have her day. So typically Mom. We're so excited to have Uncle Josh join our family. I hope he realizes what he got himself into!

    Close up

    Well, here it is. This is not my ring, but the ring of someone I love dearly. My sister Meg got engaged last night! It's about time!!! We love Ty, and have a certain fondness for him since they were set up with help of some good friends of ours, and a little help from circumstance.


    We met Ty at a pool party for the neighborhood. He is friends with our good friends Rob and Laura. Meg came to the party too, but had a boyfriend at the time. She and I stood outside the pool late talking girl stuff when Ty drove by to go home. She remarked about how fun he was and that he was her type. It was then I knew there was something there. Fast forward a month or so. Meg and said boyfriend were on the outs, and we had a trip planned to Brian Head to see Ty and Rob race mountain bikes. Somehow we talked Meg into coming, and we took her road bike as collateral. I knew if her bike was there, she would surely follow. Ty was planning on staying in the trailer with us even though he had only met us once before. So unlike Ty. He's a little shy. But he knew Meg was coming and was interested, so he toughed it out with Sean and I until she arrived late that night. Several times that weekend, Meg and Ty would be found walking together talking and laughing, and we knew it was a match made in heaven. And now, nearly a year later, they are making plans to spend their lives together. We couldn't be happier.
