Pictures of Pictures




Here are a two home projects I've been working on and am proud to show off. Amanda had to go and get married about a week after I finished this, so I'll have to update her picture, and Opal and Charles had their baby yesterday so I'll need a new picture for them as well. Oh, and Michael and Tanya had a new baby in July so their picture will need updating as well. It was up-to-date at the time this project was completed. And with a family as big as , it may be a full-time job keeping up!

Kayla's Golden Birthday!


Hey Kayla- we hope your golden birthday is extra great. Wish we were there to celebrate with you! (Kayla is the tallest, pictured here with her brothers and sister.)

Moving (yes, for real this time)


This has been one heck of a roller coaster ride, but I'll be glad to step off. It will end in Marshfield, WI (my hometown). I'm super excited to move back so close to so much family and friends. Of course this came just in time for me to be mostly unpacked from the first false alarm. Oh well, I won't be complaining much. I'll leave that to Andrew, this winter. :) Andrew was offered a job at the Marshfield Clinic, in the business department, speaking Spanish (right up his alley). It was too good of an opportunity to pass up. We plan on leaving in a month or less. Now, where did those boxes get to? (This picture is the Wisconsin River, as seen from my Uncle Jim's house.)

The Birthday Blog is Back

Warning- we celebrate 6 birthdays in August, so get ready for that. We are also looking forward to seeing the newest Hughes this month as Opal is due the 17th. We are very excited for her and Charles! We made it back home on Sunday night, shortly after midnight. It was a very long trip and we are both glad to be back at home. We had a wonderful time in Wisconsin and really enjoyed our trip. It flew by, like those trips usually do, but we were glad to see everyone we were able to visit. But for right now it's home, sweet home.

Where in the World?

Guess where I am... Nope- not even close. Andrew and I were vacationing in Wisconsin until Friday, the 31st, but now I am in Nephi, UT. Andrew's sister, Amanda, is about to get married in Manti, UT and I am totally excited for her. The wedding is today at 5:00. Amanda called us on Monday morning to let us know that Dave proposed on Sunday. We couldn't be happier for her. They decided to get married on Saturday- less than one week away. They decided only the parents and grandparents would be invited. I've been calling it the "Announced Elopement." On Thursday night Amanda called us and asked if we would be willing to come if we were invited and we were "pleased as punch." So we flew into Phoenix Friday morning at 10:30, I had to do a little shopping and then we were back on the road. We stopped in Kanab, UT last night at 10:00, and made it to Nephi (our hotel is about an hour away from Manti) this morning at 11:30. It's a big day and I couldn't think of any other place I'd rather be!
