Jen's Birthday

Last week was Jen's birthday and we had a good evening. Dan and Wes came over and we had cake. Here we are. Mike and Jen are much better at the whole taking-pictures-of-yourself pictures than we are. Ours turn out decent. 


Wes and Dan hanging out. They like to be comfortable at our place.



So Jen was on the phone and Dan, Wes, and I were so excited to dig into the cake that we forgot to sing or do candles. Opps!

So we put the piece back in and put the candles in place and lit them ablaze.


At least she was happy.


She got her wish. If she made one, did you make a wish Jen? Nope, well maybe it works retroactively.



Happy Birthday Jen! One year older and wiser too.

Papa's Lizard

Jen's dad does a funny lizard face. Kate copied it today at dinner and did it pretty good.

Exciting News!!

Because Nathan normally does all the blog posting I am a little surprised he hasn't gotten this news up for all to hear. He went to California a few weeks ago for an interview for an internship this summer. We found out last Thursday that he got the internship. He is so excited to be one step closer to being done with school and out in the real world. I actually don't know if he is more excited to get thisinternship or if Katelynn is more excited to be with her cousins all summer. She loves Ethan and Annalise SO much. We've been looking for bathing suits, and Katelynn talks about swimming with her cousins all the time. I don't think she understands that it is almost totally unlikely that she will like swimming for most of the summer. It is going to be a fun summer!! Strangely enough, I have some mixed feelings about it. It will be so much fun to be in CA with family but I really will miss all the friends we've made. Luckily we still have 2 months to have fun in Utah.
