Family Visit

A couple of weeks ago my family came to visit us in Arizona...and I'm just barely blogging about it. We had so much fun while they were here. Little Jessica got spoiled rotten! (And so did I, since they came for my birthday.) We went and saw all the sights, and they got to see our new house. I'm so glad we had some visitors, it's been the highlight of my summer.

4 Generations of Girls (Sister Sammy, Sister Melanie, Baby Jessica, Me - Danica, Mom Denise, Grandma Carolyn)
Chillin' with Grandma Martin on the 24th


Visiting Bisbee. My dad was here too, but he seemed to always be the one taking the pictures.

Unfortunately Hank had to work most of the time they were here, but he did get to go to the Sahuaro National Park with us. You can't tell, but behind us is a sea of 15 ft tall cactuses...cacti?

Danica - I lost your email address. I sent your mom and email with what you need to bring, she is supposed to send it to you - or send me your email and I'll forward the letter to you. brenda@homerealty.com

Stacy's salsa recipe is just cutting up tomatoes, onions, cilantro and some jalapenos (sometmes he adds the hot serano peppers too), he squeezes in some lime juice - no measurements. Sometimes he adds a little garlic too.

That's so neat that they all came to visit you. I can't wait until the reunion. I miss you and your cute little baby... and Hank too, but only slightly. See you soon.

I am finally blogging about our big trip to Hawaii last month. It was our 3rd anniversary and our dear friends, the Barnums, said we could come visit them anytime we wanted....so we did! Here are a lot of pictures, in no particular order: On the actual day of our anniversary, April 19th, Hank and I left the baby with a sitter and hit the town by ourselves. Since I wasn't a fan of the whole snorkling thing, we took a submarine ride to get a good view of the sea life. Yes, that is a real sea turtle in the real ocean, 100 ft underwater. I snapped this picture out my window. The view of Waikiki from our sub before we went under. The flag at the USS Arizona Memorial at Pearl Harbor. It has been raised to half mast everyday since the memorial was erected. Hank helping raise the flag first thing in the morning. "Give me gum gum, dumb dumb." Us and the Barnums at the Temple.

So Sleepy . . .

So, we may be terrible parents, but we thought this was so funny. Jessica wouldn't take an afternoon nap today and by dinnertime she was exhausted. She was so tired that she couldn't even chew her food. The best part was that Hank could not stop laughing at her and it was keeping her awake. This video was much longer, but I cut it down...because watching a baby fall asleep may not be as interesting to you as it was to us.
