Arizona, Here We Come!!!

I just had to put this picture on.

We went to Arizona to go to Baby A's blessing. While we were there, we saw J-rod and Zippy with thier pool, cactus, and miles and miles of brown land. It was hot there so that gave us the oppurtunity to bring our swimming suits. We also got to go to the Arizona Temple. It was very beautiful with all of the flowers and since it was kind of close to the Airport, we saw lots of airplanes flying over our heads. I can't wait to go back to Arizona for Matthew's Baptisim.

Mom's New Calling

At Stake conference we had Paul V. Johnson of the seventy come and speak to us. That day was also special because mom recieved a new calling. She was called as Stake Primary President. Sylvia Wadsworth was called as first countselor and Clara Jean Olsen was called as second countselor. It was very exciting for all of us to find out that mom was called to be the Stake Primary President.

Zippy tagged me for a post similar to one that I've already done here. So I thought I'd respond with this instead.

Mom was called by J- rod one morning while BJ and Cami were here telling her to come because Zippy was going to have her baby. She had it that night weighing in at 8 lbs. 8 oz.and was 19 in. They named her Alysia Joanne Schank. Attached in the next couple of slides are pictures of her and other family members.

Brandon, Camille And Kids Visit

BJ, Cami, Easty, Lily- Loo, and Bo- Bo came to visit because Kal and Lacy got married in the Reno temple. C- Le and I stayed home to watch the little chitlins. We had a good time watching them. We also went to the reception for Kal and Lacy. It was at athis really cool house with a pool and everything. It was sad when they had to leave. I hope that they come and visit us again soon!!

Grandma Mathews' House

We got to go to Grandma's house for the week. While we were there, we went swimming, to the beach, to the La Brea Tarpits and celebrated Uncle Curtis' birthday. At the Tarpits, we got to see lots of fossils buried in tar and lots of other cool things. There was this one hands-on activity where you could see what it was like being trapped in tar. At the beach, we got to boogie board on the waves. There was some wind, so the waves were HUGE!! On Saturday, Savannah, Shelby, Shawn, and Reagan spent the night because Uncle Paul had a gig that night. I was sad when we had to leave and go back home.
