Quilting 101

What I have been doing during my spare time in Gainesville? I have spent many hours on the sewing machine Dad bought for the girls for our quilting class. It has been very fun and challenging! Thanks Dad!

1st Anniversary- Cocoa beach

Just relaxing in the sun all day...No school work for John- all play! We spent the day swimming and body boarding. The east coast of FL gets some pretty big waves...

John surprised me with 2 dozen beautiful red roses!

July 29th- Our 1st anniversary!

We had our 1 year anniversary this past weekend! John and I had a great time at Cocoa Beach...

Wedding in the Works for the Crest Whitestrips Models

I went a little overboard on the teeth editing on this one...

All the wedding plans are moving along nicely.
Here is a tentative wedding run-down for everyone:
November 10th
Evening - Wedding Dinner

November 11th
1:30 - Sealing @ Logan Temple, please arrive by 1
2:30 - Photos outside the temple - bring a warm coat, because it is cold in Utah :-)

3:00 - Break: Snacks and Sandwiches at Poole home
4:30 - Reception Set Up
5:00 - Family photos at USU Alumni House
6:00 - Reception Begins @ Alumni House
7:00 - Receiving Line ends, first dance, daddy-daughter/mother-son dance, cake cutting
*Everyone please enjoy and dance because we are hiring a great band
8:00 - Kempton and Marin Change, everyone can stay and enjoy
8:15 - Kempton and Marin send off

I heard it through the grapevine--good news for Kempton

I heard that Kempton got accepted into one of the nation's top accounting schools! So it looks like Kempton and Marin will be at BYU for the next couple of years! Good job Kempton!
(I'm jealous!)

Brittan

Campbell got her hair cut!

We took Campbell to get her "Going to PreSchool" hair cut! She got a good 4 inches trimmed from the bottom! Kaley has recently worked on persuading her to get her hair cut just a bit--and it worked! IT looks so good!

Backyard Baseball

Kaley and John are celebrating their 1 year anniversary this weekend! Yippee!

Ben/Suzette are making wedding plans centered around the Nov 3-4 weekend; while Marin and Kempe are planning for Nov. 11.

I don't know why it has this blue box--but check out the video to the next world class outfielder!

Recent Tender Mercies

We moved to Inverness and our car insurance company called us about our new location. I told them the details--and they sent us a check in the mail for over 400 dollars. I guess living in Inverness will save us 800 dollars a year in car insurance! A tender mercy for sure.

Brian had someone give him some gift certificates to Outback. Eating out is not really in our budget right now--so that will be an extra special treat!

These were little perks that happened this week. We know Heavenly Father is watching us!

Brittan

We had a blast on the 4th!

If you follow this link you will see a few seconds of Annastyn exploring the cake/icecream.

Please take special note of the home-made cupcakes that look like mint-cc-icecream cones!

Thanks for making Annastyn's first Bday party a success

John killed everyone in Bowling!!! We spent the day inside for the party because it was so hot outside. I am going to post a series of pictures--hopefully everyone enjoys! Grammie spent the weekend with us--which was a major bonus. Mom saved the day with the cupcakes (that looked like ice cream cones) and we spent Friday evening cooking and checking blood pressure! It was a success!
