Half Moon Bay

Last family fun jaunt before school Starts!

San Clemente

Here is what Kendal, Chris, and Carsyn did while we were in AZ...

while Rick stayed home to WORK! Thank you Honey!!!

We had the privilege of running into Elder Matthew Potts, a good friend who is serving in the Tempe, AZ Mission. We happened to be going to Chipotle at the same location and exactly the same time...literally. We got out of the car and when I turned around to say something to Cole, Elder Potts was walking across the parking lot towards me! Couldn't have been better if we had planned it! Seeing him made my day:)

Road Trip!

With 3 days notice, we rented a brand new Impala, loaded up the kids, and headed for Tempe, Arizona with a pit stop in San Clememte to drop Kendal, Chris, and Carsyn off at the Beach House. They enjoyed a week with their cousins, aunts, uncles, and Mimi & Papa while Cole and I continued on to the squelching heat and a long week of baseball at the Don Mattingly World Series. His team battled to go ALL THE WAY to the Championship Finals Game! They were by far the youngest team at the tournament and carried themselves so well both on & off the field. The talent pool was amazing!! Had to be honored to be playing among the best of the best! 9 games in 6 days...took a lot of heart and perseverance!
