The Utah Girls, baby, and the Provo House

Here's the futon that we bought at IKEA and Jessica's orange bulletin board from home worked nicely on the wall.

I liked this picture of Ted and Shane because Shane has his eyes open.

Here is Becca in her living room next to her IKEA bookshelf.

Here are the Utah Girls with Shane. I was happy that Bethany got to come up and see the baby. She is moving this week and should be set up by next week. Or at least have her furniture. Rich has already left and will start work on August 3rd. We're happy that they got the best house to rent!

McKay's 4th Birthday Party

Here is McKay getting his big present from Grammi and Grandad. I found out later that his big brothers set him up to ask me for it!

Opening presents.

We bought 24 huge cupcakes from Costco and McKay picked out his favorite for his four candles.

Shannan has birds and McKay loved playing with them. Someone is trying to entice the birds to leave, but they seem happy to be with McKay.

Getting Together

Shane was blessed at home on July 11th with just his immediate family. Ted was able to make it and his Uncle Clint arrived just in time from Montana on a motorcycle!

I liked this picture of Taber and Rebecca cooking in the kitchen. I think we need to find Taber a bigger apron!

This was taken at Shane's blessing in the Flygare home. T.J. and Michelle, Rosalia, Taber, and Rebecca were able to come.

This last picture is of Eric and Cindy the night before their departure from Utah for the wilds of Virginia! We missed you!

Baby Shane

Here is the main man, Shane Reed Flygare. He is not quite two weeks in this picture.

Jessica kissing her little baby who is dressedin one of Aunt Kimberly's baby outfits.

I like this picture because Shane is looking right at his mother. Jessica is a supermom. This baby has gone from 6 lbs 10 oz at birth to 8 lbs 1 oz at his two week check-up!

Organizing Rosalia

Rosalia moved in to her apartment and promptly went on vacation, so when I arrived we spent a day, a night , and a morning re-organizing and decorating her space. I think you can appreciate the difference.

The posters on the wall are of Monets and a French photographer whose name I've forgotten. The black and white contrasted nicely with the impressionistic prints.

Nana and Grandpa Visit in June

I finished six quilts in June. Here is a pattern called "Stack and Whack" or Kalidescope. The roses on the left are Rosalia's graduation quilt and the one on the right is Shane's baby quilt. Jessica requested black, white, and red. This one should have Shane's little eyes twirling!

My parents visited in June on Father's Day and my mother helped me plant flowers. It was nice to have them come over for a short, but relaxing visit.

This is one of the Father's Day shirts I gave Daddy. He received several compliments.

Dad's New Car

Here is the new Buick. I think Ted is having fun with all his new gadgets.
