Wow! It's been over a month since I've updated my blog.  Don't worry I'm not dead.  I know you all were gravely concerned.  Anyway a lot has happened this past month, I  just haven't had enough time to space out and write about it, and now that I have found a spare minute my mind is totally blank AHHHH!  

Okay, as I sit here  and wrack my brain for any interesting morsel of thought, a couple of things come to mind.  First off my radical cousin Jessica is home from her mission and will be in Arizona next week.  Hurray!! she's pretty much the coolest.  Just as a side note, she served a mission out of pure love of the gospel, not because she couldn't get married.  She's super cute.

  I don't know about anyone else, but for me whenever I hear that a girl has gone on a mission I sometimes wonder what  her motivation was. I realize that it doesn't matter what it was that motivated her, whether it's her sweet spirit and desire to serve , or just a desire to serve. it's just the fact that she did it, and that is awesome.  

Another cool thing that happened this month is my daughter Hazel started crawling like a normal baby instead of the army crawl she has been sporting for the past six months.  Jack is still acting like he is in the trenches, but I'm really not concerned at all my doctor says it's totally normal.  They are even walking along surfaces.  It's really neat to see them progress.

Also on July thirteenth they turned one year old.  My aunt is sending me the pics I will post them when I get them.  But for now here are a couple that I thought were fun from this past month.
