We've got some explaining to do.....

Since December, our life has been a whirlwind to say the least! Because of how busy we've been, blogging has definitely been neglected (although it's fun, it's not a priority!!) Our camera also broke, so for the past 5 months, we've been taking pictures with our cell phones. These pictures aren't 10 Mega pixels....but they'll have to do!

Jenna graduated in December. Congratulations!

Just after Graduation, we spent our last night in Utah at SLCC watching Kama play basketball. It was a blast spending some time with family before we hit the road.

Within 24 hours of Jenna's Graduation, we packed up and moved from the friendly confines of Ogden, Utah to Coeur d' Alene. These pictures are obviously out-dated, but Coeur d' Alene is such a beautiful place, especially now that the sun is out. Pine tree's, crystal clear lakes, and lots and lots of fresh air! If anyone needs a vacation, call us. I promise you won't be disappointed.

Here are some randoms from around Christmas

Jenna's Grandpa was a Golf-Pro and started Henry-Griffitts Golf Clubs

During the Winter months, the Eagles come out......it's amazing to watch!

What is winter without a little Skiing???

Jenna's Sister Lorin has some of the cutest boys and it has been so much fun hanging out with them. This is Jenna and Cale.

Our backyard is Avondale Golf Course, and if you look close you can see a deer on the fairway

We had a blast in Seattle with Rocky and Christina...

Well, thats about the past 5 months in a nug-shell.....at least the only pictures we have to vouch for the past 5 months. We're alive, well, and very busy! Enjoy

Jenna's got Jumps!!!

Congratulations on an outstanding volleyball career!

Prank Wars!!!

It started with a small cup of tap water..........



.....ended with a huge pot of ICE WATER!!!

From Broadway to Boston

This last week I was able to go on a little vaca to the east coast. A great friend of mine graduated from Brandeis University in Boston and a sister-in-law of mine lives in New York. Originally my mom sisters and Brad were going to join but the flights were a little tight. I absolutely loved seeing the busy city of New York and the beauty of Boston. It was a busy but enjoyable weekend that I will never forget. For those who have yet to see the East Coast, I defenitly recommend it!

Thanks Kellen!

Dropping him off at his new base.

He's in the back row, third sailor in from the right!

This last weekend I was able to see Kellen, my little brother, graduate from the NAVY's basic training camp. It was one of the most inspiring events I have ever been to and something that I will never forget. He looked so handsome in his sailor uniform and was the same wonderful Kellen I grew up with. Being on the Naval base that day, I was able to get a glimpse of what Boot Camp is really like and after speaking with Kellen decided that excuses are not acceptable and you have to shrug a lot of things off and just keep going to be successful. What a great example he is of honor, courage and strength! After struggling through a workout with him and seeing what discipline he had, sure made me want to be a stronger person in all aspects of my life. Thank you Kellen for your great example! Thank you for serving our country, God bless!

Congratulations to the Mailei's

This past week, we had the opportunity to see Marcus, Kristen, and Jonah Mailei get sealed in the Salt Lake Temple. It was such a great day and we really feel fortunate that we got to be there! Jonah is growing up so fast and judging by his size, he may be following in his Dad's football footsteps!!! Good luck in the draft next month Marcus!!!

Back to Back Champs!!!

These are the Princess Leia shirts Lorin made for the tourney (Inside Joke!! Because Cannon and Cale always refer to Kama as "Princess Leia", we had to wear an appropriate shirt for the game)

Check out her huge bruise on her left arm!!!

This weekend we went to Boise to watch Kama play in the Idaho state basketball championship (for the 3rd year in a row). Kama was simply amazing and so much fun to watch. Not only did we get to watch Kama get her third State Championship ring (2 in Basketball and 1 in softball) but we had a blast hanging out with the family around the city.
