Our Utah Trip

Us on a walk around Cascade Springs

This past week we were in Orem for Rod's family's reunion. We had a ton a fun! Caitlin and Lizzie LOVED meeting cousins they didn't even know they had (all except 2 being girls so they had lots of playmates!). And we really enjoyed hanging out with Rod's siblings, parents, and extended family. Here's just a few pics from our trip, we'll post more on the Lambourne Blog later (http://lambourneupdate.blogspot.com/).

Rod helping Caitlin play croquet

Our trip to the BYU Creamery! Lizzie loved getting "pink" ice cream and made sure she got every drop!

Audrey is 4!

We went to good ole Chuck E Cheeses for the birthday girl. With her tickets she picked out her princess crown and earrings, which are lost already-naturally.

She wasn't feeling the best that day, and still has a little fever but she had lots of fun, mostly because dad was there who "is her favorite"
And....check out my new wheels! We decided it was time to upgrade before we moved to the middle of nowhere. I feel so spoiled having automatic locks and windows and DOOR HANDLES!

Hiking!

Here are some pictures from St. George and from
a ward hike. Also... fyi i made it 1 month with no
Dr. Pepper and I'm still going strong!

Pics from the Whittles

I Audrey at her tumbling recital; she loved showing everyone her moves

I still can't get over the view from the Marin Headlands beach. It was a beautiful day!

Thank goodness for the hot tub. That sure occupied a few hours! Audrey talks about Caitlin a lot, she misses her!

Dad, you were such a good sport for letting Audrey give you a make-over. She was giggling about it the other day

We're missing our other sisters! (The ones who play with our kids...)

KATE!

Kate- I need a favor. Could you possibly burn me another CD of the songs you gave me for my birthday? I really love that cd and we traded in our van for a newer one yesterday(I'll try to get a picture up tomorrow) and I forgot to get it out of the cd player! I'm so bummed. I can't remember all the names of the songs. And yes, I LOVE Viva la Vida too,-that song is awesome. Devon always wants me to play it. Hmm. I couldn't find that cd today either. I wonder if I left that one in the car somehow. I better go check on that. ANYWAYS, I'll give you a call soon, it's been awhile!

Latest Rexburg happenings...

I made a really yummy cake, its devils food cake filled with warm carmel and condensed milk, then i crunched twix and butterfingers on top, then you put cool whip and carmel and more candy bar on top, then you put it in the refrigerator! It is amazing!! yum!!

This is a video from the Rexburg air show, it was a great airplane show. Dad, this isn't the cool jet i was telling you about, i havn't been able to find it online yet. But i'll keep looking.

Kate and i are going home next weekend and i'm so excited to see you mom and dad!! i wish we had time to drive up to see you, Whittles!!

The Twilight Series

Ahh!! Brooke why didn't you tell me these were so addicting!! I've already finished the first one and started the second. Okay, and just to check, I saw she's coming out with book #4 in August? I hate this indefinateness. Excatly how many books are supposed to be in this series? She can't string me along indefinately for years, here. Anyway, so my dishes have piled up, my children have run amuk, and dinner's still on the table - 4 hours after we finished eating. But at least I'm getting my reading done.
